It’s not the first time MAGA has turned on itself over U.S. support for Israel. In June, clashes over Trump’s Mideast policy pushed him to speak out, declaring: “I’m the one that developed America First. I’m the one that decides that.”
Trump still drives conservative politics, but his movement is no longer a monolith. Nor is Israel the only international policy issue that threatens the movement’s unity. The next fissure may be China.
On Israel, figures like Carlson, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and other right-wing media personalities are calling for a restrained U.S. presence. Now, pressure is building from those who want a more aggressive approach to China.
More Trump voters disapprove of the president’s handling of China than any other foreign policy issue, according to a new public opinion poll by myself and my team at the Institute for Global Affairs.
