Trump Dismisses Tucker Carlson’s Criticism Over Iran Strikes
In the latest chapter of their ongoing saga, President Donald Trump has once again brushed aside critiques from former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, this time with a particularly sharp retort.
Carlson recently leveled accusations against Trump, claiming that the former presidentâs support for Israel’s preemptive strikes on Iran effectively implicates the U.S. in the conflict, making America morally responsible for the attack due to its continued arms support.
reported that Trump rebuffed Carlson’s insinuations that he has âabandonedâ his signature America First policy in favor of siding with Israelâs aggressive military actions against Iranian nuclear facilities, as echoed by the New York Post.
This latest dispute ignited after Carlson criticized Trump in his newsletter, ominously titled âThis Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War,â where he asserted that Trumpâs actions are not only misguided but could also jeopardize his political future.
âWhile the U.S. military didnât carry out the strike, years of financial and military support to Israel, which Trump recently celebrated on Truth Social, undeniably embroils the U.S. in these events,â Carlson stated, as reported by The Independent.
He continued, âWashington was well aware these attacks were forthcoming and facilitated Israel in executing them. Politicians claiming to be America First canât credibly assert they had no part in this.â
In a conversation with Steve Bannon, Carlson outlined the dire implications, warning that globalist elites and neoconservatives are steering America toward a catastrophic conflict that could âscuttleâ the nation on the âshores of Iran.â
âI genuinely care for Trump; I view him as a fundamentally humane and kind individual,â Carlson remarked. âHowever, I fear this trajectory will leave our country significantly weakened. We are on the brink of witnessing the decline of the American Empire, something other nations would eagerly welcome. This recklessness could also culminate in the effective end of Trumpâs presidency, which is precisely why Iâm voicing my concerns.â
During a diplomatic meeting with the Prime Minister of the U.K., Trump nonchalantly dismissed Carlsonâs remarks.
âI donât know what Tucker Carlson is talking about,â Trump quipped. âLet him acquire a television network if he wants to be heard. Thank you.â
In response to a reporterâs inquiry about Carlsonâs allegations of complicity in the war, Trump reiterated, âI donât know what Tucker Carlson is saying. Let him go get a television network and say it so people actually listen.â
