Appearing on “My View” with the president’s daughter-in-law on Saturday, Charlamagne — real name Lenard Larry McKelvey — claimed that “traditional conservatives” were about to take over the GOP again.
Trump wasn’t having it.
“The very wonderful and talented Lara Trump, whose show is a big ratings success, put racist sleazebag Charlamagne ‘The God,’” Trump fumed on Truth Social in the wee Sunday morning hours. “Why is he allowed to use the word ‘GOD’ when describing himself?”
“He’s a Low IQ individual, has no idea what words are coming out of his mouth, and knows nothing about me or what I have done – like just ending 5 Wars, including a 31 year bloodbath between Republic of the Congo and Rwanda.”
While Trump didn’t reveal a specific grievance with what Charlamagne said on Lara’s show, it came after “The Breakfast Club” co-host weighed in on the scandal over the Trump administration’s delay in releasing files related to pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.
Charlamagne claimed that the Epstein row is a “political coup going on right now in the Republican Party that people are not paying attention to.”
Last month, the MAGA base erupted over a July 6 Justice Department and FBI memo that concluded the evidence suggests Epstein killed himself and did not have an “incriminating client list.”
Trump had ripped into elements of the MAGA base for harping on the issue and blamed Democrats for kicking up the “Epstein Hoax.”
“I think that traditional conservatives are going to take the Republican Party back,” Charlamagne said. “I think this Epstein thing is going to be a way for traditional conservatives to take their party back, I really do.”
He added: “I think they know this is the issue that has gotten the base riled up. The MAGA base isn’t letting this issue go, and for the first time, they know they can probably take the party back and not piss off the MAGA base.”
The “Breakfast Club” host described Trump as a “once-in-a-lifetime, one-on-one, political juggernaut.” Still, he panned Trump’s performance across the board and contended that Americans are still struggling economically under his watch.
“Right now people are hurting,” Charlamagne argued. “He campaigned on immediate change. Day one change.”
He also pointed to former US ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley as a Republican he could see himself backing.
“Right now people are hurting,” Charlamagne argued. “He campaigned on immediate change. Day one change.”
Trump further dinged Charlamagne and accused him of not knowing about his accomplishments in office.
“He didn’t know that, or India and Pakistan or, wiping out Iran’s nuclear capabilities, or closing the horrendous open Border, or creating the greatest economy, where prices and Inflation have come way down,” Trump vented, referring to his efforts to end wars overseas.
“But this dope, Charlamagne, would vote for Sleepy Joe or Kamala? Remember, one year ago our Country was DEAD, now it’s the “HOTTEST” Country anywhere in the World. MAGA!!!”
