US EditionTrump Touts Massie Challenger Ahead of Trip to Kentucky
Trump campaigns for Ed Gallrein to unseat Rep. Massie in Kentucky's 4th District amid a public feud and $5 million spent by pro-Gallrein super PACs.
- On Tuesday, President Trump endorsed Ed Gallrein, and MAGA KY super PAC spent $2.6 million on ads, with total outside spending nearing $5 million.
- After clashing over Epstein files and Iran policy, Rep. Thomas Massie opposed the One Big Beautiful Bill, and an adviser said he risks undermining the president's agenda.
- Attack ads show Gallrein with Trump, funded by pro-Israel donors and the Kentucky MAGA Inc., created last year by Chris LaCivita and Tony Fabrizio, while Massie's campaign released an ad Tuesday highlighting Gallrein's voter registration changes.
- An adviser warned replacing Massie is important because he is counterproductive, while Massie said, 'People support Trump, but they also support what he campaigned on', NBC News reported.
- Of the 10 GOP impeachment voters, only two survived the 2022 midterm primaries, and MAGA KY activity signals broader costs for those opposing Trump.
