The backlash follows Trump’s recent comments in which he criticized prominent right-wing personalities including Jones, dismissing them as irrelevant and attention-seeking. “They’re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA,” wrote Trump on Truth Social. The president said that Jones was saying “some of the dumbest things.”

Besides Jones, he also lashed out on personalities like Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Tucker Carlson after they all accused him of acquiescing to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and criticized the decision to go on war with Iran.
Responding on his podcast, Jones delivered a fiery monologue, signaling he was prepared to intensify his criticism of Trump. He called for the ouster of Trump through the 25th Amendment as he was “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”

The host hinted that he was not willing to let the issue slide and attach the President back. “I’m just going to scorched-earth Trump to get him back on track. The only way to do it is to go after him viciously,” said the podcaster.

“So, if you think I’ve been coming after you. If you think that I’m trying to attack you, the Democrats who don’t buy anything from me and don’t like me and want to put me in jail. If you think I’ve been on your ass, say one more thing. One more thing outta your mouth and Laura Loomer, send him this! — One more thing when I’ve gone through hell backing your a** cause you’re the lesser of two evils, then I’m gonna show you how the cow ate the cabbage.”, he continued.
