Pundit Tucker Carlson is expressing regret for voicing support for President Trump.

Carlson, who has been a sharp critic of Trump’s war in Iran, said during a recent episode of his podcast and online show that prominent people on the right who backed Trump ahead of the 2024 election are “implicated” in what’s going on in the Middle East.

“So I do think it’s like a moment to wrestle with our own consciences. You know, we’ll tormented by it for a long time. I will be,” he said. “And I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people and it was not intentional. That’s all I’ll say.”

The conservative commentator wondered out loud if it was “always the plan” to go to war with Iran, saying “you don’t want to be a conspiracy nut, but like, clearly, there were signs of low character, we knew that, but there are tons of people of low character who, like, outperform their character.”

A former Fox News host, Carlson campaigned for Trump ahead of the 2024 election and hosted him for an interview during the first Republican primary debate that election cycle.

总统在接受《纽约邮报》采访时说：“Tucker 是个低智商的人，完全不知道发生了什么。他一直给我打电话；我从不接他的电话。我不和他打交道。我喜欢和聪明人打交道，而不是和傻瓜。”

“Tucker’s a low IQ person that has absolutely no idea what’s going on,” the president said during an interview with the New York Post. “He calls me all the time; I don’t respond to his calls. I don’t deal with him. I like dealing with smart people, not fools.”

Yeah, like who cares what Carlson says.

Not what he wanted, but what he deserves.
