Trump Threatens To Primary GOP Rep For Supporting ‘Worst Republican Congressman’

President Donald Trump turned on Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert Saturday, threatening to back a primary challenger after she campaigned for Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky.

Trump aired his frustration on Truth Social, calling Boebert “Weak Minded” and labeling her a “Carpetbagger” for relocating to Colorado’s 4th Congressional District. “Boebert is campaigning for the Worst ‘Republican’ Congressman in the History of our Country, Thomas Massie, of the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky, and anybody who can be that dumb deserves a good Primary fight!” he wrote, adding that he would consider it an “Honor” to pull his backing if a viable alternative stepped up.

Boebert had appeared alongside Massie at campaign stops in Shelby and Oldham counties ahead of the May 19 Kentucky primary, where Massie faces Trump-endorsed retired Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein, according to the Washington Examiner.

The Colorado congresswoman brushed off the rebuke on X. “Yes, I saw the President’s post. No I’m not mad or offended,” she wrote. “I knew the risks when I agreed to stand by my friend Thomas Massie. I was, and will be, America First, America Always, and MAGA.”

Massie told Fox News the threat carried no real weight because Colorado’s filing window had already closed. “I think he should be mending fences with these folks, not trying to burn bridges,” he said.

Trump’s feud with Massie has simmered for months, the Examiner reported. The Kentucky lawmaker voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, opposed the Iran strikes, and pushed to release federal records tied to Jeffrey Epstein.

Boebert herself signed onto the Massie-led discharge petition forcing the Justice Department to hand over the Epstein files, per The Hill, joining only three other Republicans. Boebert is running unopposed in the June 30 GOP primary, with Cook Political Report rating her seat solidly Republican, The Hill noted.
