https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/tucker-carlson-says-will-tormented-long-time-support-trump-rcna341250Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson expressed regret over supporting President Donald Trump, saying in a video released Monday that he would "be tormented by it for a long time" and apologized for "misleading" people."I do think it’s like a moment to wrestle with our own consciences," Carlson said on "The Tucker Carlson Show," referring to the role of his and others' support for Trump. "You know, we’ll be tormented by it for a long time. I will be, and I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people. It was not intentional."Carlson, once a staunch supporter of the president, pointed in the video to having campaigned for Trump, saying, "We're implicated in this for sure.""It’s not enough to say, 'Well, I changed my mind,'" Carlson said during the show, during which he interviewed his brother, Buckley Carson. "Or like, 'Oh, this is bad. I’m out.' It’s like, in very small ways, but in real ways, you and me and millions of people like us for the reason this is happening right now."Carlson's remarks come amid a growing public splinter on the right over Trump's handling of the war in Iran. Trump is facing the lowest job approval rating of his second term as a growing number of Americans strongly disapprove of the president's handling of inflation and the cost of living, which is consistently a top issue for voters.Reached for comment, the White House pointed to an April 9 Truth Social post from Trump, who said that Carlson and other Trump allies-turned-critics "have one thing in common, Low IQs.""They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too!" Trump said in the lengthy post.After Carlson criticized Trump's handling of Iran earlier this month, Trump told the New York Post that he believed Carlson was “a low-IQ person" who has "absolutely no idea what’s going on."
Carlson isn't the only high-profile former Trump supporter to break with the president in recent months. Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene have called for the 25th Amendment to be invoked to oust Trump from office. Carrie Prejean Boller, who served as a Trump-appointed member of the Religious Liberty Commission until February, called Trump an "evil psychopath" in an Instagram post and far-right influencer Candace Owens called the Trump administration "satanic."Influential podcasters in the so-called "manosphere" have also criticized Trump's handling of Iran. Joe Rogan said in March that some Trump supporters felt "betrayed" by the war, and Theo Von questioned whether the war was helping regular Americans. But even before the war, prominent podcasters have criticized Trump on issues such as immigration, the Epstein files and U.S.-Israeli relations.Carlson was a strong supporter of the president, but he has become increasingly critical of Trump during his second term, particularly over his handling of Iran. He previously urged the president's military aides to reject any plan to kill Iranian civilians, and he slammed Trump's post earlier this month that called on Iran to "open the F----- Strait, you crazy bastards." Carlson said that "on every level," the post was "vile."Carlson's son, whose name is also Buckley Carlson, worked in Vice President JD Vance's press office but departed recently to start his own firm.Carlson left Fox News in 2023 shortly after Fox agreed to pay a $787.5 million settlement to Dominion Voting Systems over defamation allegations.
>>1507858Reminder that Cucker agrees with all the far right wing stuff trump is doing, except for their war in Iran.He, along with some of the other fascists are hedging their bets that trump's regime will collapse and they want to get ahead of declaring themselves thee leader of the next fascist movement the republicans put forward.
>>1507858If only there was some kind of docket, maybe an "Agenda" of some sort, published on Trump's own site, that told the world that this was what he had planned and that nothing else mattered along as he got elected to push that agenda. And it was written by every person who just happens to be in his cabinet, and names multiple foreign actors and state intelligence services that would be crucial for ensuring it succeeds. Maybe an Agenda.. for 2030, something like that.Anyway good on him for at least breaking out of the spell because that seems to be too much for Miggers nowadays who spend every waking moment trying to mentally cope that each and every awful thing happening to them and America right now is actually 50D chess because "D-DEY HORT WORSE!!!" (_◡◠) not that I think anyone on 4chan is mentally ill enough to do that in this very thread
>>1507860>Reminder that Cucker agrees with all the far right wing stuff trump is doing, except for their war in Iran.His jumping off point was the strait of hormuz because he is ultimately a shabbos goy, and the jews in this country love money more than they ever loved the idea of an Israeli ethnostate. The jews in this country are well aware that Israel fucking up the entire middle east will trickle the sentiment back home and make it harder for them to continue pretending to be white chameleons that get all the benefits of family nepotism with none of the questioning.
>>1507860Yep, exactly this. I hope people aren't stupid enough to fall for it, but knowing this country they will.
>>1507858>expressed regretWay too late. You were an absolute moron if you ever thought this guy was a good choice. No offense.
>>1507863Do you mean Agenda47, which was his campaign manifesto and endorsed by him as it was his policy platform?Or Project 2025, a policy paper written by the Heritage foundation, which has as much affiliation with Trump's Campaign as the Brookings Institute has with the Biden campaign
>>1507878>Project 2025Ah that's the one, that was hosted on his campaign site, yknow, because it had nothing to do with it. lol
>>1507875This but I intend offense.Tuckcuck Neocon cockgobbling MORON
>>1507879so what? Trump can host plans he's not connected to.Just like his followers can savagely beat a police officer and pretend they didn't murder him when he dies of his injuries the next day
>>1507879https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/05/politics/trump-distance-project-2025/index.html"In a post to his social media site, Trump claimed, 'I know nothing about Project 2025,' the name given to a playbook crafted by the Heritage Foundation"Donald Trump has lately made clear he wants little to do with Project 2025, the conservative blueprint for the next Republican president that has attracted considerable blowback in his race for the White House."I have no idea who is behind it," the former president recently claimed on social media.https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2024/07/18/trump-campaign-manager-denies-links-between-ex-president-and-project-2025-pure-speculation/"The Trump campaign is continuing to distance itself from the controversial Project 2025 agenda that lays out a series of extreme policy proposals for a second Trump presidency, with the ex-president's campaign manager Chris LaCivita telling Politico on Thursday the right-wing project doesn't speak for the campaign and denouncing it as a "pain in the ass.""If you could send me a link to where Trump's campaign website hosted Project 2025 I'd like to see it
>>1507885I could believe he had no knowledge of it, but that's irrelevant, because he still put all of its members and founders in his cabinet and they're now doing exactly what was detailed in the Project 2025 outline.https://web.archive.org/web/20240722215454/https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-16/trump-project-2025-plan-us-election-four-corners/104015688Best I could find. As much as they pretend to distance themselves, their dossier was on their site and Project 2025 vetted new members for his cabinet. >Project 2025 reviews budding applicants’ social media accounts and probes their political philosophy, asking whether they agree or disagree with statements such as:>“It’s making sure that we have the right people who are going to be steeped in the battle plan,” says Dans, who served as chief of staff in the Office of Personnel Management in the Trump administration.If the big play is "Trump didn't know about it" while 100 of its members get elected to cabinet positions, then Trump truly is the dumbest fucker on planet Earth. Which I could also believe.
>>1507883Had me in the first half. You cheeky fucker.
>>1507858I know the liggerals are elated Tucker needs money so he took a bunch to flip, but Tucker hasn't been relevant since he was fired from Fox News.And did he offer a solution that wasn't terrible sucj as letting Brat continue Bidenomics and Bidenflation agenda?
>>1507885I voted for Project 2025.
Tucker is still going to urge you to vote for the Trump-backed Republican in 2026 and again in 2028.
>>1507959And I will because the alternative is pain under Democrat mismanagement.
>>1507964Why can't you stupid Americans count up to three? 3rd party.Oh, boohoo, That's a wasted vote. Americans are B&W fools and will always remain a little people.
>>1507858return the money then. That'd be a real apology. Show you mean it.
>>1507981I voted 3rd 10 years ago and friends still roast me for it.
>>1507964I hope you get drafted soon. Cohabitation with you fucking morons is impossible and we’d be better off if you all just died for Dear Leader already
>>1507885>trying to cite trump as a reputable sourceLMAO
