Trump’s MAGA movement is ‘deader than dead’, says former loyalist

  • Conservative influencer Carrie Prejean Boller, a long-time supporter of Donald Trump, has publicly criticised him over the Iran conflict, declaring his "MAGA" movement "deader than dead".
  • Prejean Boller accused Donald Trump of being influenced by a foreign government, stating that the US is an "occupied nation" in relation to the ongoing hostilities.
  • The Iran conflict began on 28 February with joint US-Israeli airstrikes, resulting in the death of Iran's Supreme Leader and subsequent retaliatory strikes that have killed 13 US service members and caused global fuel prices to soar.
  • The conflict has exposed deep divisions within Donald Trump's base, with high-profile figures like Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene clashing with hawkish Republicans and other far-right activists.
