Trump targets Kentucky Rep. Massie for primary challenge

Former President Donald Trump has targeted Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky, promising to support a primary challenger against him. Trump criticized Massie for opposing a government funding resolution, claiming he is an unreliable vote. Massie has remained firm in his stance against the resolution, stating he will not change his vote. He expressed confidence that his constituents value transparency over party loyalty, despite Trump's threats. This conflict is not new; Trump previously criticized Massie in 2020 for his actions during a COVID-19 relief vote. Massie also endorsed Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the early Republican primary, further straining their relationship.
