Tucker Carlson said he will be "haunted" by the thought that he supported Trump

The former head of national counterterrorism, Joe Kent, discussed with Tucker Carlson how critical voices were silenced before the war in Iran. Carlson, who has been a strong supporter of Donald Trump, stated that he and others who supported him are "involved" in "Operation Epic Fury," which he called "absolutely disgusting and evil." In an episode of "The Tucker Carlson Show," he emphasized that it is not enough to say that he has changed his mind, but that he must also confront his conscience for his contribution to the current situation. Carlson was criticized by Trump on social media, and his comments sparked reactions from the public, who expressed their regrets regarding the war and Trump's association with Israel. Although Carlson supported Trump in the 2024 elections, he severed ties with him in 2025, calling for the American military not to get involved in the Israel-Iran conflict. Trump responded to Carlson's criticisms, suggesting that he should express his opinions on another television channel. Additionally, Carlson was caught in private messages criticizing Trump's claims about electoral fraud after the 2020 elections.
