UPDATE: Massie Loses His Seat – Ed Gallrein Wins Primary!
In one of the most watched primary races of the season, Kentucky House race for congressional district 04 is a challenge of President Trump endorsed Ed Gallrein versus the incumbent Trump antagonist Thomas Massie.
Most of the pontificating high-horse alligator emojis from the DeSantis tribe are supporting Thomas Massie along with significant elements of the GOPe and Bush clan who just want President Trump to get a loss. The anti-Trump republicans have all coalesced behind Massie. Meanwhile, the MAGA group of pro-Trump supporters are aligned to support Massie’s challenger, the Trump-endorsed Ed Gallrein.
Representative Thomas Massie is facing the most difficult re-election battle of his career. Massie has been the most outspoken Republican antagonist of President Trump, who has strongly backed his challenger, Ed Gallrein, a former Navy SEAL. The race has turned into the most expensive congressional primary race on record, with several groups furious over Mr. Massie’s general disposition to be in opposition to anything until Trump is removed.

Hahahahahaha!
Oh, hahahahahahaha!
Blahahahaha !!!!!
Massie couldn’t even get Lassie to save his Assie.
Good Riddance!
I assume that we have some able bodied CTH plumbers ready to leap into action when the toilets back up in the GA “Vote Bunker”. Should happen any minute now.
folks in Kentucky don’t want Massie around no more, and they out here voting to get him gone. They want Trump in the big seat instead, showing that even the homies out there—from the country to the bricks—are riding with Trump and saying Massie gotta go.
May I have fries with that?
OH YES!!! Please add a Cornyn
Gentlemen, cigarettes cause lung cancer, they don’t cause you to lose elections; being anti-Trump/MAGA does though. Cassidy must be a DEI med school grad, he should know better.
I just checked Trump’s Truth Social … and a WALL of WINS from around the country … a lot of them in a row from TONIGHT!!!!!!! Impressive!
I might have counted wrong , it was about 25 wins with pictures. One very long list of wins.
I would say watch Massie now start to oppose everything President Trump does, but he was already doing that.
Lining up a part-time gig on CNN in 3…2….1….
Massie’s looking at real estate in Costa Rica next door to MTG’s new home./s
Hallelujah!
God continues to bless us!
This is one of Thomas Massie’s top campaign supporters. He openly said he hoped U.S. service members would be kidnapped. If Massie loses, it will not be because of the people he surrounds himself with, or because he votes against his own party at every opportunity. His supporters will say it was all because of Israel.
Ryan Matta, wearing a literal Nazi sweatshirt, cheering for the death and kidnapping of American military members: “So we got some breaking news coming in from RT.
Unfortunately the video of Marines getting captured turned out to be a dud—fck, that would have been fcking awesome, wouldn’t it?
Trump tries to take Kharg Island, the Marines get captured, nobody gets killed, Iran has them hostage. And basically, what the soldiers in that video was so good, it was like, ‘Trump said us up, complete failure, we’re not prepared’; I was like, wow, this is f*cking insane how good this is, this is gonna end the war, this is such a great video.’
Turned out to be a fake. Anyway, check out this sh*t: ‘Large number of US Marines killed in a suicide-drone-plus-missile-mass-strike in Iran. Complete elimination of American soldiers from their land.”
And then, I got another video over here that says, ‘Breaking: The Iranian Revolutionary Guard announces it has struck US Marine forces on Kuwait’s Bubiyan Island, causing injuries among American troops.”

More winning!
FAFO. Constitutional MAGA base is exerting its will. PTL.
Remember when DeSantis constantly bragged about his endorsement from Massie during the 2024 republican primary? Massie must have been shocked when DeSantis did not return his phone calls during this Kentucky republican primary.
DeSantis thought it was a good idea to run against DT in 2024. There is not a dunce cap big enough.
Some friends of mine were staunch Massie supporters. They’re gonna be teed off over this. They don’t see why the rest of us are so anti-Massie and intolerant of his anti-Trump votes and rhetoric.
They say Trump still hasn’t earned their loyalty as “real” conservatives. They nitpick Trump over the most trivial things, and turn a blind eye to the yes votes Massie and Cassidy gave Biden for spending and confirming judges.
I say that’s the most ignorant mindset a conservative could ever have.
If it weren’t for Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush would have won in 2016, and either one would probably have gotten a second term.
But Donald Trump stepped into the lurch and crossfire (Hurricane) and fought till the bitter end for Republicans and MAGA and was cheated out of reelection in 2020.
But not before, despite all the arrows and knives he got stuck in him, dragging several Republicans across the finish line. Are you reading this Ron DeSantis?
And what gratitude did he get? Impeachment(bogus) votes by no less than 20 so called “Republicans “ and a primary challenge by Ron DeSantis.
So I don’t care if, to purge these RINOS, we lose a few Republican seats occupied by RiNOS. It will be short term and we’ve a good chance of making them up somewhere else.
I hope DJT is savoring seeing Massie and Cassidy getting frog marched out of their respective chambers by the voters. Love it!
RINOs/Uniparty tools are in many ways worse than the Dems, because they get you to vote for them with lies about their “conservatism” — and then refuse to cast hard votes when needed — best example I can think of is that tool John McCain saving Obamacare.
Massie cut from same cloth. Glad he won’t be around come Jan.
FYI — I learned to drive a stick shift in my Dad’s 62 4 door Corvair in 1968….while it was snowing! Took my future wife on our first date in same car in 1970 😎. Except it being white, it looked exactly like this:

I’ve been reading CTH daily for 14 years. I’m thrilled that Massie lost. What’s weird for me is that the first time I ever heard of Massie was in the comments here on CTH, where someone wrote Massie is “the smartest man in Congress.” So, initially, I had a good impression of him.
There are many of us here very disappointed in Thomas Massie.
That’s damn funny 🙂
Massie initially earned a lot of goodwill by calling out the foreign influence over the federal government. Unfortunately, he blew it all over the past two years with his constant anti-MAGA votes. Sadly, I see Rand Paul trending in the same direction.
Rand Paul has been unreliable for some time now. Puts himself over the MAGA agenda.
He may be the smartest man soon to depart Congress. I’m sure he’s being compensated *very* well for his sabotage of MAGA and DJT.
Unfortunately, smart doesn’t always align with loyal and honest.
This will actually be a Republican pickup if he wins in the general election.

NEXT! get these clowns outta here! We’re DONE with their horse crap!
Hey Treehousers – I voted for DJT in 2024 and contributed funds to his victory. I also supported Massie in his campaign against AIPAC, Singer, Paulson and Addelson. Massie lost but so did Magaman i.e. he lost the support of Anti-Democrats but non MAGA personality cultists – like me. There are many of us.
As of today, the U.S. is in an unconstitutional war initiated and continued from someone that was going to put America first and stop the endless wars. As of today, gasoline prices are double the amount when Magaman took office and with an economy little better than that of Sleepy Creepy Joe. As of today, the U.S. is more trillions in debt from Megaman’s OBBB, again little different from Autopen, Sleepy, Creepy Joe.
Treehousers, it is obvious that Magaman is a tool of Israel and that America’s Constitution or financial future is really not a concern. Treehousers, it is also obvious Magaman and his friends are deeply part of the Epstein class and really just want to keep the party going, whether at Mar-a-Lago or the golden White House ballroom.
So, for all of the above I bid you and Conservative Tree House adieu. Me and my ilk now reject the Magaman nonsense and will pursue new sources of information and new, Non Magaman political parties. Adios Maga!!!!!!
Bye
Hey Numbnuts: take your antisemitic drivel somewhere else…like back home in Tehran 🤗
Go find a Loaring Center better suited to your intellect.
Which candidate was favoured by the Israel lobby?
How many millions of dollars poured into a Congressional seat that pays $174,000 a year?
All of those constituents of the District must really believe in their candidate and that he will listen to their voices after they reached so deep to fund his campaign. And the candidate will no doubt have his ear to the ground to respond to constitutents’ calls.
