In recent months, conservatives and longtime supporters of President Donald Trump have quarreled with one another.

Earlier this month, Trump announced a navalblockadeof the Strait of Hormuz, blocking any vessel doing business with Iran.

As one might expect, X users, including conservative podcasterBenny Johnson, blasted Murphy as a “traitor.”

He actually replied “awesome” to the news that 26 Iranian shadow fleet vessels breached the US naval blockade.

We all knew he was rooting for Iran, but it’s disgusting to see him do it so…pic.twitter.com/x6iLxMCt80
