MS NOW’s “Morning Joe”<\/a> called out President Trump Friday morning for only showing a willingness to criticize divisive right-wing media figures like Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens and Alex Jones after they have turned on him, rather than for their own, “outlandish” views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump went on a lengthy Truth Social<\/a> tirade against Kelly, Carlson, Jones and Owens Thursday, calling them “losers” and “nut jobs,” after they all outright condemned his threats against Iran<\/a> this week. Owens, for her part, went so far as to demand that the 25th Amendment be invoked to remove Trump from power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his Truth Social post, Trump wrote of the four, “They\u2019re not ‘MAGA,’ they\u2019re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA.” Speaking on Friday’s edition of “Morning Joe,” The Dispatch Senior Writer David Drucker took issue with Trump’s selective outrage against his more divisive, on-again, off-again supporters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s all personal, right? He didn’t criticize Owens or Tucker Carlson or Megyn Kelly for stoking antisemitism, for being antisemitic in Owens’ case for sure,” Drucker observed. “It’s all because they’re angry at him. It’s all because they’re criticizing him.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He’s brought figures like this along with him and he’s accommodated their sometimes very outlandish, wacky views and never said that it wasn’t welcome within the party,” Drucker added. “But when they turn on him, now they’re idiots who are not welcome in the party.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
