Far-right influencer triggers massive MAGA meltdown by endorsing Trump GOP nemesis

Right-wing influencer Sneako has detonated a fresh round of infighting on the MAGA right by publicly throwing his support behind Rep. Thomas Massie, the Kentucky Republican locked in a primary fight that President Donald Trump has personally tried to derail."I speak for all of MAGA when I say WE support Thomas Massie for Kentucky and DEMAND the release of the Epstein files," Sneako posted on X, drawing instant blowback from Trump loyalists. The caption was included along with a photo of Sneako by the president's side.The streamer, who previously sparked controversy with provocative appearances including a heated interview with Piers Morgan, was promptly told to sit down by some of the movement's most vocal foot soldiers."You don't speak for MAGA. Leftist," posted the MAGA influencer known as Insurrection Barbie.Trump ally and former appointee Michael Caputo was even more dismissive: "You speak for all of MAGA? Never heard of you."But others on the right framed Sneako's endorsement to his one million followers as proof that the Trump coalition is finally cracking.Dalton Welbern, a self-described MAGA personality, went further, predicting that the Kentucky primary result could blow the movement apart."If Massie loses tomorrow, it will trigger a civil war inside the America First movement," Welbern wrote. "Because it would prove something a lot of people do not want to admit: The entire influencer right combined is still weaker than Donald Trump alone."MAGA show host The Misfit Patriot attacked Sneako based on the photo he posted, saying, "This is the face of 'take the picture so I can get this f------ creep away from me.'"
