President Donald Trump's far-right supporters are having some vigorous disagreements over Iran.
Fox News host Mark Levin favors aggressive U.S. military intervention on behalf of Israel in the Iran/Israel conflict, while MAGA non-interventionists — from "War Room" host Steve Bannon to Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) — are adamantly opposed to that. And those non-interventionists weren't happy when, on Saturday, June 21, the news broke that the U.S. had launched some military strikes against Iran.
Politico's Jonathan Martin discussed MAGA infighting over Iran during a Monday, June 23 appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

Scarborough noted that some Republicans who appeared to be non-interventionist on Iran "seem to be falling in line" with Trump, but Martin stressed that within the MAGA coalition, it's a matter of degree.
Scarborough told Martin, "Before, (there was) a lot of talk about the MAGA civil war that was erupting over this. Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon and several other big MAGA influencers (were) warning the president that his coalition would come crumbling down immediately."
But going along with surgical strikes against Iran, Martin said, doesn't necessarily mean those Republicans will have the appetite for getting the U.S. into a long-term war.
Martin told Scarborough, "Well, this was a one-off strike until it's not. I mean, look, I think if this is a replay of what Trump did the first time around, where he did do targeted airstrikes, Trump is fine with, you know, aerial assaults. He kind of likes keeping it that way. You know, do real damage. You have nifty technology, and you avoid boots on the ground. It's a win-win."
Martin added, "And by the way, it can't be overstated how much, I think, Trump was influenced by a week of Israeli success."
The Politico reporter, stressed, however, that "the big question with MAGA going forward is: Is this going to be something beyond what we saw on Saturday night, going after three nuclear facilities?"
Martin told Scarborough, "Trump's coalition can get behind him, salute and rally to the flag and the commander-in-chief on one Saturday night's successful…. attacks from above. It's a different story if we're in a weeks-long, months-long, tit-for-tat wider conflict with…. a major Middle Eastern country. So, I think, that's the great question going forward: How much can the Trump base bear?"
