Disputes over President Donald Trump’s Iran policy, fuel prices and the Epstein files are testing the MAGA coalition ahead of the 2026 midterms, France 24 reported Oct. 30.

France 24 linked the Epstein files, higher fuel costs and decisions on the Iran war to tensions among the backers most committed to Trump. The report also described disagreements over U.S. engagement abroad, economic policy and how supporters interpret “America First.”

The report portrayed Trump as the movement’s main point of reference and said he is trying to keep supporters aligned.

France 24 pointed to the 2026 midterms as the next test, asking whether Trump can rally supporters despite the divisions.
