'Vile.' Trump's threat to Iran's infrastructure enflames MAGA tensions [View all]

President Donald Trump’s strongly-worded Easter threat to blow up Iranian infrastructure has prominent figures on the right pushing back, further enflaming tensions in his MAGA base over Iran.

Former GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene even suggested Trump should be removed from office under the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution after he doubled down on his threat in another post on April 7 that said: "a whole civilization will die tonight."

Trump has been issuing increasingly dire warnings about the damage he may inflict on Iran, alarming some conservative leaders.

Sen. Ron Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican and staunch Trump ally, expressed concerns about attacking Iranian bridges and power plants.

Tucker Carlson, Nancy Mace and Joe Kent have also criticized him. There needs to be more.
