Trump vs. NPR: “Radical Left Monsters” Meet “Threat to Democracy” – Epic Media Feud Erupts 2025
President Trump just torched NPR as “radical left monsters” demanding total defunding—while NPR blasts Trump as a “threat to democracy” with 100+ enemies lists and retribution vows. “Here’s what they say about each other”? Pure fireworks.
Trump’s blasts (April 1, X mega-post, 66M+ views): “REPUBLICANS MUST DEFUND AND TOTALLY DISASSOCIATE THEMSELVES FROM NPR & PBS!” Calls them “SO BADLY HURT OUR COUNTRY”—ties to Project 2025 push for CPB zero funding.
NPR fires back HARD: “Trump has made more than 100 threats to prosecute or punish perceived enemies.” Labels him “dangerous” for DOJ weaponization, “retribution presidency.” “Systematically trying to destroy… liberal democracy.”
Epic timeline:
- 2017: Trump dubs media “enemy of the people” (15+ tweets)—NPR in crosshairs.
- 2024-25: NPR tallies 100+ threats vs. foes (Bolton: “retribution presidency”).
- Now: Defund war—shutdown hits NPR funding; Trump eyes PBS/NPR kill.
X explodes: Trump’s post: 256K likes—MAGA roars “Defund NOW!” NPR fans: “Trump’s the threat!”
U.S. stakes: $500M+ taxpayer cash to NPR/PBS; shutdown Day 30 amps feud. Midterms? Defund vote looms—42M SNAP chaos aside.
Trump-NPR feud cements media wars 2025—**”enemy” vs. *“threat”*.
