Fox News host Trey Gowdy took a none-too-veiled swipe at his former colleague Tucker Carlson and far-right podcaster Steve Bannon on Sunday night, claiming the MAGA isolationists represent the “pro-Putin wing” of the GOP and that they’ve been “begging” Donald Trump not to join Israel in its war with Iran.
During a Sunday evening interview with Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX), who has long been critical of Carlson (and vice versa) and once even threatened to “kill” him, Gowdy referenced the unsuccessful efforts by Carlson and Bannon to push Trump away from bombing Iran – all while framing it as part and parcel to their criticisms of America’s support of Ukraine amid its three-year war with Russia.
