President Donald Trump has once again unleashed a verbal broadside against former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, dismissing his prediction that Trump would quit early due to the Iran-Israel conflict as the ramblings of a “kooky” figure. The video, shared by gc22gc on X, captures Trump at a bilateral meeting with the U.K. Prime Minister, shrugging off Carlson’s criticism with a smirk. “I don’t know what Tucker Carlson is saying,” Trump quipped. “Let him go get a television network and say it so that people actually listen. Thank you.” The image above, from the video, shows Trump and the Prime Minister, their expressions a mix of seriousness and amusement, the backdrop a lush garden. It’s racked up over 500,000 views, and it’s a story that’s reigniting the debate over Trump’s foreign policy.

The context is explosive. Carlson, in his newsletter “This Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War,” accused Trump of being “complicit” in Israel’s preemptive strikes on Iran, arguing that sustained U.S. arms support made America morally responsible. The Gateway Pundit and New York Post reported Trump’s response, where he slammed Carlson for betraying the MAGA base. “Despite being complicit in the act of war, the president hopes last night’s events will help his ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran,” Carlson wrote, a stance that irked Trump. On Truth Social, Trump didn’t hold back, pleading for someone to explain to “Kooky Tucker Carlson” that Iran must not be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. The video, with its casual dismissal, underscores the rift. “I actually really love Trump. I think he’s a deeply humane, kind person,” Carlson said on “War Room,” but added that U.S. involvement in Iran could “scuttle the USS America on the shoals of Iran.” Trump’s firmness on preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, a stance that clearly irks Carlson, is at the heart of the dispute.
This isn’t just about words—it’s about a presidency on the line. Israel’s strikes, aimed at crippling Iran’s nuclear facilities, have not fully succeeded, with Israeli National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi admitting, “There’s no way to destroy a nuclear programme by military means.” The military campaign could, however, create conditions for a deal with the U.S. Trump’s decision to cut short his G7 Summit trip and meet with his national security team upon return to the White House, as reported by RedState’s Susie Moore, adds another layer. The image of Trump, calm and collected, contrasts sharply with Carlson’s dire predictions, a visual of the cultural war playing out in real-time. For America, it’s a question: who’s right?
