President Donald Trump on Tuesday called Tucker Carlson a "low IQ person" and a "fool," escalating a public feud between the two former allies as divisions widen within conservative circles over the U.S. war in Iran.
Trump's remarks came in response to Carlson's criticism of a profane Easter social media post in which the president threatened Iran and urged its leaders to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Carlson described the post as "vile on every level" and accused Trump of "mocking" Islam by ending the message with "Praise be to Allah."
