'A Warning Shot': Maggie Haberman Explains Why Trump Attacked Kayleigh McEnany

New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman  said Donald Trump s outburst about Kayleigh McEnany , his former White House press secretary, served as a warning to all his right-wing allies.

Its a warning shot to anybody else who might be around him or who was once around him and is seen as having cred with the right and with the MAGA movement for saying anything thats based in fact that he doesnt like, Haberman told CNN s Kaitlan Collins in a clip posted by Mediaite . Thats all that is.

Following his victory over Nikki Haley in Tuesdays New Hampshire primaries, the former president hit out at McEnany over some commentary shed given on Fox News . 

I dont need any advice from RINO Kayleigh McEnany on Fox, Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social  platform late on Tuesday, using an acronym for Republican in name only.

Just had a GIANT VICTORY over a badly failing candidate, Birdbrain, and shes telling me what I can do better. Save your advice for Nikki! he added.

McEnany, now a Fox News host, had offered Trump some compliment-laden advice during the networks primary analysis. She suggested he should think ahead to the general election and recognize that there is a segment of Republican and independent voters that he has not captured.

President Trump, I would go home tonight, Id go to my victory party, I would celebrate, Ive made history yet again. But then Id go home and Id look under the hood, she said.
