Trump turns on Tucker Carlson after Iran war criticism: ‘Not MAGA’

  • President Trump has publicly criticised conservative podcaster Tucker Carlson for his opposition to the US-Israeli military strikes against Iran.
  • Carlson described Trump's decision to attack Iran as "absolutely disgusting and evil", asserting it was "Israel's war" and not in America's national security interest.
  • In response, Trump stated that Carlson had "lost his way" and was "not MAGA", suggesting he lacked the intelligence to understand the movement.
  • Polling data indicates that a majority of American voters disapprove of Trump's handling of the Iran situation and believe military action should not have been taken.
  • Under Operation Epic Fury, the US military claims to have destroyed over 30 Iranian Navy ships and air defences, with the Defense Secretary indicating the operation is ongoing.
