Split in MAGA world as Prez weighs next steps on Iran

WASHINGTON:

Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, commentator Tucker Carlson and conservative firebrand Charlie Kirk — with legions of their own devoted followers — are reminding audiences of Trump's 2024 promises to resist overseas military involvement after a week of deadly strikes and counterstrikes between Israel and Iran, and discussion of US involvement.

On social media and their popular airwaves, questions about Trump's stance from these central validating voices are exposing a crack in his forward guard. They are also warning that the schism could deter progress on other priorities.

"No issue currently divides the right as much as foreign policy," Kirk wrote on X, adding he was "very concerned" that a massive split among MAGA could "disrupt our momentum and our insanely successful Presidency."
