Tucker Carlson, who often backed Trump and Vance during his time as a leading Fox News anchor, has clashed with the president in recent weeks over the Iran war.
More recently, Carlson took issue with the president’s profaneEaster Sunday threats to obliterate much of Iranian society, accusing Trump of playing God.
“Who do you think you are?” Carlson said on his show. “You’re tweeting out the f-word on Easter morning?”
“That’s not your job,” he continued. “This is not a theocracy. We don’t go to war with other theocracies to find out which theocracy is more effective. We are not a theocracy. And God willing, we never will be because theocracies corrupt the religion.”
The presidentsoon fired back, name-checking Carlson and others who have criticized the war.
