President Donald Trump indicated a detente in his war of words with Tucker Carlson on Wednesday, saying that the former news network star called him to apologize “because he thought he said things that were a little bit too strong” about his involvement with the growing conflict between Iran and Israel.
“Tucker is a nice guy,” Trump told reporters at the White House. “He called and apologized the other day because he thought he said things that were a little bit too strong, and I appreciated that.”
He also insisted that his “supporters are for me” on the subject of Iran.
“My supporters are America first,” Trump said. “They make America great again. My supporters don’t want to see Iran have a nuclear weapon.”
His comments came after a reporter asked him if he’d seen the contentious interview on Carlson’s show between the former Fox News host and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, where he berated the senator for being in favor of regime change in Iran.
“Ted Cruz is a nice guy,” Trump said. “I mean, he’s been with me for a long time, I’d say once the race was over.”
