Trump seeks to primary Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky

Former President Donald Trump announced plans to challenge Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) after Massie refused to support a short-term funding bill. Trump called for Massie to be primaried, but many of his supporters disagreed with this stance. Massie's decision not to back the bill was based on concerns about government spending, echoing comments from Elon Musk. Conservative commentators defended Massie, stating that he represents his constituents' interests and should not be ousted. House Speaker Mike Johnson distanced himself from Trump's comments, expressing friendship with Massie despite their disagreements. Trump has previously attempted to unseat Massie, who has consistently won support from his voters.
