In a shocking turn of events, Representative Thomas Massie has come out swinging against President Trump, claiming he feels “misled” after the recent strikes on Iran. In a statement released to the press, Massie declared, “He’s engaged in war, plain and simple. I thought he was just tweeting at 3am like the rest of us, but it turns out he’s actually making serious decisions that impact the entire world.”
The Kentucky congressman, who is known for his libertarian views and love of all things small government, went on to say, “I feel like I’ve been bamboozled. I mean, I voted for Trump because I thought he was going to drain the swamp, not bomb it into oblivion.”
When asked for comment, President Trump responded in typical fashion, tweeting, “Thomas who? Never heard of him. Fake news!” However, sources close to the White House have revealed that Trump was overheard muttering, “I thought Massie was on my side. I guess he’s just another deep state plant.”
In response to Massie’s accusations, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders held a press conference where she stated, “President Trump is a man of peace. He only bombs countries for the greater good. And if you don’t agree, well, you’re probably a communist.”
Meanwhile, Senator Rand Paul, who is also from Kentucky and a fellow libertarian, chimed in with his own thoughts on the matter. “I stand with Thomas Massie in his fight against the warmonger-in-chief. We must resist the urge to bomb first and ask questions later. Unless, of course, it’s a buffet line. Then, all bets are off.”
As tensions continue to rise between the United States and Iran, one thing is clear: the political landscape is more tumultuous than ever. And with Thomas Massie leading the charge against Trump, who knows what could happen next.
