GOP lawmaker hits back after Donald Trump appears to knock his marriage [View all]

Rep. Thomas Massie hit back at President Donald Trump this week, accusing the president of "trying to be a bully" after he appeared to criticize the Kentucky Republican's recent marriage.

Trump on Friday, Nov. 14 shared a post on Truth Social asking if Massie got "married already," saying "His wife will soon find out that she’s stuck with a LOSER!" Massie married Carolyn Moffa, a former congressional staffer for Sen. Rand Paul, last month. Massie's late wife, Rhonda Massie, died in June 2024. They were married for over 30 years.

Massie and Trump have most recently been at odds because the Kentucky lawmaker and Rep. Ro Khanna, D-California, introduced legislation that would force the Justice Department to release a full version of the government's files on accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. The Trump administration has fought against the move.

But when asked about Trump's comments during an interview on ABC's "This Week" on Nov. 16, Massie joked that his wife said "we should have invited Donald Trump. He’s mad that he didn't get an invitation."
