Massie Rebukes Trump for Mocking His Remarriage as Conservative Backlash Grows

The clash stems from Massie’s push to force release of Epstein records and a Trump-backed primary challenge, with a House vote on the files expected this week.

Overview

  • On ABC’s This Week, Rep. Thomas Massie called President Trump “a bully” and said he’s taking the attack “with a grain of salt” after Trump mocked his recent remarriage on Truth Social.
  • Trump’s post said Massie’s new wife would find she is “stuck with a LOSER,” drawing condemnation from some right‑leaning figures, including former Trump adviser Jenna Ellis and commentator Evan Kilgore.
  • Massie announced he married Carolyn Grace Moffa in October; his first wife, Rhonda, died in June 2024 after more than 30 years of marriage.
  • Fringe activist Laura Loomer amplified unverified speculation about Rhonda Massie’s death on X, underscoring how personal attacks have fueled rumor‑mongering online.
  • Massie, who is driving a bipartisan effort to force disclosure of Epstein‑related records, said a House vote is imminent, and Trump has shifted to urging Republicans to support the measure as it appears poised to pass.
