President Donald Trump ripped Charlamagne tha God in a scathing weekend post after the radio host claimed that the “MAGA base” is losing its power over the Republican Party due to the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
“The very wonderful and talented Lara Trump, whose show is a big ratings success, put racist sleazebag Charlamagne ‘The God’ (Why is he allowed to use the word ‘GOD’ when describing himself? Can anyone imagine the uproar there would be if I used that nickname?),” Trump began in a message on Truth Social, referring to his daughter-in-law’s Fox News show, “My View with Lara Trump.”
Calling Charlamagne a “Low IQ individual” who “knows nothing about me or what I have done,” Trump went on to claim that he’s ended “5 Wars” and created “the greatest economy, where prices and Inflation have come way down, and where STUPID and CORRUPT JOE BIDEN set the record for doing the Worst Job as President, EVER.”
Trump continued: “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!!!”
During his appearance Saturday on Lara Trump’s show, Charlamagne predicted that “traditional conservatives are going to take the Republican Party back.”
“I think there is a political coup going on right now in the Republican Party that people aren’t paying attention to,” he said. “I think that this Epstein thing is going to be a way for traditional conservatives to take their party back.”
The “Breakfast Club” host added, “I think that they know that 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 their party back and not piss off the MAGA base. I think they’re going to do that.”
Voters, including Trump’s supporters, have expressed anger over the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files after the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation announced in a two-page memo that it would not release any additional files on the convicted sex offender.
Charlamagne, who hosted an audio town hall with Harris prior to the 2024 elections, likely also drew Trump’s ire after Trump ordered an investigation into Biden’s aides for allegedly covering up the former president’s supposed cognitive decline. Charlamagne argued on “The Daily Show” last month that Trump is “losing it as badly as Biden.”
But the radio host has publicly taken aim at the Democrats as well.
He criticized the left last week for glossing over former President Bill Clinton’s supposed ties to Epstein.
“It’s just funny how the news works,” Charlamange said during a July 29 episode of “The Breakfast Club” radio show. “Because Bill Clinton wrote a letter to Jeffrey Epstein as well for his birthday — but nobody’s talking about that. And Jeffrey Epstein had a picture of Bill Clinton in a dress, in high heels in his New York mansion, but nobody’s talking about that.”
