Base of movement is divided; On the one hand, there is a strong isolationist current, on the other, one that encourages the agent to support Israel
Republican hawks supported AO’s attacks, but the crisis forces the president of, walking on the tightrope due to cracks in the ultra -conservative movement “Make America Great Again” (Maga), divided between interventionists and isolationists. The announcement of the attacks was applauded by Mark Levin, a right -wing political analyst. “The Iranians are about to be beaten,” he said. But part of Trump’s Maga Movement activists opposes this movement, does not want to be involved and warned against demonstrations of support to Israel. The base of the movement is divided. On one side, there is a strong isolationist current, on the other, one that encourages the agent to support Israel. Charlie Kirk, a prominent name from Maga and the most loyal ally of the head of state, analyzed the reaction of his pro-Trump audience. “Emails are overwhelmingly opposed to Israel to do this, I would say it’s probably a proportion from 99 to one,” he said. He seems to have changed his mind on Friday, telling ABC that the attack was “excellent.” But this will not please many of its supporters.
The Republican, which defends the slogan “America First”, ran for elections as a peacemaker and declared during the campaign that would end the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine. Now many of its supporters observe Israel’s offensive as a test and fear that the US be dragged on hostilities. Tucker Carlson, a prominent voice of the American far right and former Fox News host, recalled that “Trump campaigned for the presidency as a peace candidate.” “A war with Iran would represent a deep betrayal to its supporters,” he said last week, warning that such a conflict could “very easily become a world war.”
Diplomacy Chief Marco Rubio, usually a foreign policy hawk, was quick to distance the US from Israel’s “unilateral” attacks, which reached uranium enrichment facilities and killed Iranian high -ranked staff. Trump himself insisted that Iran could not acquire nuclear weapons, but said, before the attacks, that it was against a military action.
