President Donald Trump publicly backed conservative commentator Mark Levin, stepping into a heated personal feud between Levin and podcaster Megyn Kelly. Trump praised Levin on Truth Social as a “truly Great American Patriot” who was “somewhat under siege by other people with far less Intellect, Capability, and Love for our Country.”
According to NY Post, Trump suggested that Levin’s critics were motivated by jealousy, saying those attacking him were “jealous and angry Human Beings, whose ‘sway’ is much less than the Public understands.” He also warned that “those that speak ill of Mark will quickly fall by the wayside, as do the people whose ideas, policies, and footings are not sound.”
Trump then tied the feud to his political movement, stating, “THEY ARE NOT MAGA, I AM, and MAGA includes not allowing Iran, a Sick, Demented, and Violent Terrorist Regime, to have a Nuclear Weapon to blow up the United States of America, the Middle East, and, ultimately, the rest of the World.”
The Kelly-Levin feud is part of a bigger split among conservative commentators over Iran and Israel
The feud is part of a wider rift among conservative figures, including Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, over the US and Israel’s military actions in Iran. Levin, a strong supporter of Israel, called Kelly “evil” and “diabolical” on Saturday after she shared a post mentioning that a terror suspect in a Michigan synagogue bombing had lost family members in a recent Israeli strike.
Kelly, who has been critical of the US and Israel’s involvement in the Iran conflict, has also refused to denounce Carlson and Owens. She fired back at Levin, stating, “I’m sorry you have a micro penis but don’t drag the rest of us into your drama.” Trump’s willingness to publicly intervene in conservative media disputes is part of a broader pattern – his personal access and influence over political allies has become a significant topic in Washington.
On Sunday morning, Levin wrote, “Poor Megyn Kelly. An emotionally unhinged, lewd, and petulant wreck.” He added, “She’s completely revealed and destroyed herself. She’s everything people say she is, but much worse. Never an intelligent, thoughtful, or substantive comment. Utterly toxic.”
Kelly responded again, writing on X, “Micropenis Mark thinks he has the monopoly on lewd.” She continued, “He tweets about me obsessively in the crudest, nastiest terms possible. Literally more than some stalkers I’ve had arrested. He doesn’t like it when women like me fight back. Bc of his micropenis.” Meanwhile, Trump continues to flex his political reach in other arenas as well, including using his endorsement as leverage in Texas to push a voting bill that currently lacks enough support to pass.
After Trump’s defense, Levin said he was “beyond humbled” by the president’s words and wrote on social media, “Your courage, strength, and moral clarity are truly unparalleled. And your leadership has made our country and the world much safer.” He added, “Both you and what you are doing deserve our support. And I will not be intimidated and bow to threats.”
