President Donald Trump publicly defended conservative radio host Mark Levin on Sunday after a heated online feud erupted between Levin and podcaster Megyn Kelly, adding his voice to an ongoing dispute among several prominent conservative commentators, as reported by The New York Post.
In a post on Truth Social late Sunday, Trump praised Levin and criticized those who had been attacking him during the public exchange.
Trump described Levin as a “truly Great American Patriot” who he said was facing criticism from individuals he claimed possessed far less ability.

According to the president’s post, Levin was “somewhat under siege by other people with far less Intellect, Capability, and Love for our Country.”
Trump also expressed strong support for Levin’s role in conservative media.
Levin is “far smarter than those who criticize him, but, above all, he is a man of Great Wisdom and Common Sense who truly loves our Country,” Trump wrote.
The president also suggested that critics of Levin were motivated by jealousy, writing that those attacking the radio host were “jealous and angry Human Beings, whose ‘sway’ is much less than the Public understands.”

Trump added another warning to those criticizing the commentator.
“Those that speak ill of Mark will quickly fall by the wayside, as do the people whose ideas, policies, and footings are not sound,” he wrote.
Trump also tied the dispute to broader policy issues, particularly the debate among conservative commentators over the United States and Israel’s military actions against Iran.
“THEY ARE NOT MAGA, I AM, and MAGA includes not allowing Iran, a Sick, Demented, and Violent Terrorist Regime, to have a Nuclear Weapon to blow up the United States of America, the Middle East, and, ultimately, the rest of the World,” Trump wrote in the post.
The president’s comments came after Levin and Kelly exchanged a series of personal attacks across social media over the weekend.
The dispute is part of a broader disagreement among several conservative commentators and podcasters, including Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro, and Candace Owens, particularly over the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran.
Levin, who has been a vocal supporter of Israel, criticized Kelly after she shared a post from Drop Site News co-founder Ryan Grim.
The post referenced the suspect accused of a synagogue bombing in Michigan and stated that the suspect had recently lost a niece and nephew in an Israeli airstrike.
Levin responded by attacking Kelly directly.
He described her as “evil” and “diabolical” in a post on Saturday.
Kelly responded on X with a personal insult directed at Levin.
“I’m sorry you have a micro penis, but don’t drag the rest of us into your drama,” Kelly wrote.

The dispute escalated further the following day.
Kelly has criticized the war involving the United States and Israel against Iran and has declined calls from some commentators to condemn others with similar views, including Carlson and Owens.
Levin posted another message on Sunday criticizing Kelly.
“Poor Megyn Kelly. An emotionally unhinged, lewd, and petulant wreck,” Levin wrote. “She’s completely revealed and destroyed herself.”
“She’s everything people say she is, but much worse. Never an intelligent, thoughtful, or substantive comment. Utterly toxic.”

Kelly responded again on X, repeating her earlier insult while accusing Levin of targeting her repeatedly online.
“Micropenis Mark thinks he has the monopoly on lewd,” she wrote.
“He tweets about me obsessively in the crudest, nastiest terms possible. Literally more than some stalkers I’ve had arrested. He doesn’t like it when women like me fight back. Bc of his micropenis,” Kelly added.

Following Trump’s Truth Social post, Levin responded by thanking the president for the public support.
Levin said he was “beyond humbled” by Trump’s comments.
“Your courage, strength, and moral clarity are truly unparalleled. And your leadership has made our country and the world much safer,” Levin wrote on X.
“Both you and what you are doing deserve our support. And I will not be intimidated and bow to threats.”
Mr. President:
I am beyond humbled by your words and graciousness in writing such a beautiful note and sharing it on Truth Social. I am honored that you took the time to write it.
