Internet personality and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson excoriated President Donald Trump over the weekend over his decision to strike Iran in a joint air campaign with Israel, denouncing America’s war with the Islamic Republic as “absolutely disgusting and evil.”
Carlson spoke with ABC News on Saturday, just hours after the US and Israel launched a combined surprise attack on Iran, killing Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and dozens of senior regime officials.
“This is going to shuffle the deck in a profound way,” Carlson warned.
The far-right pundit criticized Trump last June over the one-day American air campaign targeting Iran’s nuclear program, while warning that US involvement could lead to the deaths of tens of thousands of American service members.
