Michael Savage’s Seven-Point Critique Exposes Rift in Trump’s Base

A prominent radio host warns that Trump’s decisions on Ukraine, spending priorities and Epstein files could drive core supporters to skip the next election.

President Donald Trump speaks before signing an executive order about the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, in the South Court Auditorium of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building on the White House campus, Tuesday, Aug. 5, 2025, in Washington.

Overview

  • On X, Savage accused Trump of seven actions—from escalating the Russia–Ukraine war and pressing a pork-barrel spending bill while attacking Elon Musk to hiding the Epstein client list—that have alienated his most loyal voters.
  • He singled out the president’s firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics chief and the construction of a gilded ballroom in the White House as examples of governance excess.
  • Savage cautioned that disenchanted MAGA supporters "may sit out the next election" in protest of perceived broken promises and lavish spending.
  • The White House brushed off the critique, emphasizing Trump’s strong favorability among Republicans and his record 80 million-vote mandate.
  • Similar alarms from conservative figures such as Tucker Carlson signal deepening divides over Trump’s foreign policy and handling of key administration decisions.
