肯塔基州联邦众议员共和党人托马斯·马西在周二的初选面临前海军海豹突击队队员埃德·加尔雷恩的挑战之际，遭到了特朗普总统的一连串攻击。加尔雷恩获得了特朗普的背书。
但马西似乎并不紧张，即便此前特朗普看不顺眼的多位政客都因总统的不满而在初选中落败——最近一次就是路易斯安那州联邦参议员共和党人比尔·卡西迪。
在肯塔基州第四国会选区选举前的几天里，特朗普将马西称为“我国历史上最糟糕的国会议员”，还称他是“不忠、忘恩负义、自以为是的蠢货”。他还威胁要为其他曾为马西助选的共和党国会候选人发起初选挑战。马西曾多次否决特朗普的多项立法优先事项，反对与伊朗开战，并违抗总统要求公开爱泼斯坦相关文件的指令。
“他知道我很难被击败，”马西周一在肯塔基州万斯堡的家乡接受CBS新闻采访时表示。“他确实为这场选举睡不着觉，因为他完全投入其中了。我认为他们的民调结果和我们的一致，也就是说我们有超过一半的概率赢得这场选举。”
马西随后补充道：“我会赢。”
国防部长皮特·赫格斯西周一早些时候在辛辛那提/北肯塔基国际机场对面酒店的宴会厅为加尔雷恩助选，在长达23分钟的演讲中指责马西“不断阻挠”。赫格斯西表示，他是以个人身份出席此次活动，当天早些时候他还到访了坎贝尔堡陆军基地。不过此次访问打破了军事官员长期以来避免参与党派政治的惯例。
马西告诉CBS新闻，赫格斯西的亮相凸显了总统及其盟友对周二选举结果的担忧。
“当你本该监控伊朗战争的时候，你有多少私人时间？”马西说。“如果你认为自己支持的候选人领先10个百分点，就不会在战争期间派国防部长去肯塔基州。只有当你意识到自己的竞选活动彻底崩盘时，才会这么做。”
但马西表示，亲以色列利益集团投入的数百万美元资金，比总统的干预对选举的干扰更大。马西称，在正常年份，他本可以获得80%的选票并赢得初选。他估计，特朗普对加尔雷恩的背书将他的支持率拉低到了60%，而亲以色列游说团体的投入进一步削弱了他的支持。
“我原本以为会是60比40的局面，现在变成了50比50，”马西说道。他提到加尔雷恩得到了美国以色列公共事务委员会（AIPAC）、共和党犹太联盟以及米里亚姆·阿德尔森等共和党大捐赠者的支持。
这位国会议员将这场已成为美国历史上花费最高的众议院初选称为“以色列游说集团能否花钱买下国会席位的全民公投”。他指责这些利益集团试图“胁迫整个共和党在对以色列的外交政策上不得有任何异议”。
马西是国会中少数几位反对对伊朗开战的共和党人之一，他曾与民主党人一起投票，限制特朗普在未经国会授权的情况下开展进一步军事行动的权力。他还投票反对支持以色列的象征性决议，以及一项他认为会助长审查制度的反犹主义谴责决议。
当被问及自己是否反犹时，马西回应：“绝对不是。”
马西警告称，将反犹太复国主义或对以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡在加沙的战争的批评等同于反犹主义，“对美国犹太人来说是极大的不公”。
他为自己在以色列问题上的立场辩护，称其政策“始终是没有哪个国家享有特权，也没有哪个国家值得动用我选区选民的纳税款”。
“我从未投票支持过给埃及、叙利亚、以色列或乌克兰的外国援助，”他说。“但以色列是最大的受援国，这让他们有点恼火。”
马西表示，他不支持对以色列的援助，因为“我们国家债台高筑”，而且这是一种“单向”的安排。
“至少在北约，还有互惠安排的承诺，”他补充道，同时还指责以色列将美国拖入战争。

Republican Rep. Thomas Massie of Kentucky has faced a barrage of attacks from President Trump heading into Tuesday’s primary against former Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein, who has the president’s endorsement.
But Massie doesn’t appear to be sweating it, even after several of Mr. Trump’s perceived adversaries have suffered primary defeats stemming from the president’s ire — most recently GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana.
In the days leading up to the contest in Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District, Mr. Trump has labeled Massie “the worst congressman in the history of our country” and has called him “a disloyal, ungracious, and sanctimonious FOOL.” He has also threatened to primary other congressional Republicans who have campaigned with Massie, who has voted against several of the president’s legislative priorities, opposed the war with Iran and defied him in pushing for the release of the Epstein files.
“He knows I’m tough to beat,” Massie told CBS News in an interview Monday in his hometown of Vanceburg, Kentucky. “He’s literally losing sleep over this race, because he’s in with both feet. I think their polling shows what our polling shows, which is there’s a better than half chance that we’re going to win this race.”
Massie later said, “I’m going to win.”
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth campaigned with Gallrein earlier Monday in a hotel ballroom across the street from the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky Airport, using a 23-minute appearance to accuse Massie of “constant obstruction.” Hegseth said he was there in his personal capacity, and after stopping earlier Monday at the Fort Campbell Army Base, though the visit marked a break from military officials’ longstanding practice of avoiding partisan politics.
Massie told CBS News that Hegseth’s appearance underscores how concerned the president and his allies are about Tuesday’s outcome.
“How much personal time do you have when you’re supposed to be monitoring a war in Iran?” Massie said. “You don’t send the Secretary of War to Kentucky during a war if you think your candidate is up 10 points. That’s what you do when you realize your whole campaign is imploding.”
But Massie said millions in spending by pro-Israel interest groups is causing more disruption in the race than the president. In a typical year, Massie said he would have won the primary with 80% of the vote. He estimated Mr. Trump’s endorsement of Gallrein lowered his support to 60%, and spending from the pro-Israel lobby further eroded it.
“I think what would have been a 60-40 race is now a 50-50 race,” Massie said, citing Gallrein’s support from AIPAC, the Republican Jewish Coalition and GOP megadonors such as Miriam Adelson.
The congressman called the race, which has become the most expensive House primary in history, “a referendum on whether the Israeli lobby can buy a seat in Congress.” He accused the interest groups of trying to “intimidate the entire Republican Party into having zero dissension on foreign policy toward Israel.”
Massie is one of the few Republicans in Congress who has opposed the war with Iran and has voted with Democrats to rein in Mr. Trump’s authority to carry out further military action without congressional authorization. He has also voted against symbolic resolutions backing Israel, as well as a resolution condemning antisemitism that he argued promoted censorship.
Asked whether he’s antisemitic, Massie responded “hell no.”
Massie warned that it’s a “big disfavor” to Jewish Americans to equate anti-Zionism or criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s war in Gaza with antisemitism.
He defended his stance on Israel, saying his policy has “always been no country is special and no country deserves my constituents’ taxpayer dollars.”
“I have never voted for foreign aid to Egypt, to Syria, to Israel or to Ukraine,” he said. “But the ones in Israel, since they’re the biggest recipients of it, that makes them a little bit mad.”
Massie said he doesn’t support aid to Israel because “we’ve got debt” and it’s a “one-way” arrangement.
“At least with NATO, there’s the promise of a reciprocal arrangement,” he argued, also accusing Israel of dragging the U.S. into wars.
