Trump Reveals Tucker Carlson Called Him to Apologize For Iran Comments (VIDEO)
Gateway Pundit ^ | June 18, 2025 | Cristina Laila

Posted on 06/18/2025 7:13:29 PM PDT by Macho MAGA Man

President Trump on Wednesday said Tucker Carlson called him to apologize for his Iran comments.

Earlier this week Tucker Carlson appeared on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” to discuss the ongoing Iran-Israel fight.

Last Friday Israel bombed nuclear sites in Tehran and wiped out many of Iran’s nuclear scientists and top military brass.

Iran responded by launching missile strikes at Tel Aviv.

The United States assisted Israel and intercepted Iran’s missiles.

On Monday evening, President Trump cut his G7 visit in Canada short and returned to DC to meet with his National Security Council team amid rumors the US would get involved and stop Iran from obtaining nukes.

Tucker Carlson told Bannon that if the US gets dragged into a war with Iran it could effectively end Trump’s presidency.

Tucker compared it to George W. Bush’s Iraq war on claims Iraq possessed ‘weapons of mass destruction.’

Tucker Carlson also interviewed Senator Ted Cruz and criticized him for wanting regime change in Iran.

Tucker also blasted the President during his fiery interview with Ted Cruz.

.... Snip....

On Wednesday, President Trump said Tucker Carlson called him to apologize.

“Tucker’s a nice guy. He called and apologized…because he thought he said things that were a little bit too strong,” Trump said.

“If they think that it’s okay for Iran to have a nuclear weapon, then they should oppose me — but nobody thinks it’s okay!” Trump said.

“I don’t wanna fight either! I’m not looking to fight!” Trump said.

A public insult requires a public apology. Until then, it doesn’t count.

Tucker woke up and realized he had to kneel and kiss the President's ring.

“I don’t wanna fight either! I’m not looking to fight! Trump said.”

Like it was said a couple of days ago...

“Ruhollah Khomeini is a jihadist and Donald Trump just wants to buy the world a coke.”

So, any time we hear of a Tucker Carlson comment, we should wait a few days to see if he wants to apologize and recant.

Tucker has become very unhinged as of late. I wonder if he’s got to be more and more controversial to get clicks. He’s getting right up there in the nutso department with Candace Owens.

Tucker really tries to get it right.

During the Cruz interview (while in the conversation) he apologized to Cruz for the way he said something.

I wish the folks on FR who cheer when little Gazan children are dismembered shared a fraction of that humility.

Tucker has always been the guy in the bow tie. He was never MAGA. He was a guy without a media job in 2023 that needed a new audience. He cozied up to MAGA out of convenience. Tucker has always been a chameleon.

Do you need me to provide examples?

If you want to save yourself the embarrassment, just go look at any thread about Israel bombing Gaza and see for yourself.

If not, let me know and I will show you the demons on here who cheer the deaths of children.

I watched Tucker’s “interview” of Cruz. Rarely have I seen someone demeaned so venally and pompously. I lost what little respect I had left for Carlson. He seriously has flipped his script and method of interviewing. Lately, he has seemingly gone off the deep end.

I’m done with him. Just my opinion.

Some of these demonic posters claim to be “Christians”. Shame on them. Jesus is weeping.

The others…..go figure.

Tucker Carlson is such a f... pimp.(read without the ellipses).

He doesn't want to lose the bucks a severed association with Trump would cost him.

And a public apology would be nice, too.

Hopefully, the savages who use such human shields will realize that human flesh makes for lousy sandbags.

Since all those clowns brag about how they love death, they should be paying (((us))) money for helping to find their true love; i.e., death.

Max Blumenthal is Tucker Carlson’s best friend. They grew up together in DC while Max’s Dad was Hillary Clinton’s favorite political advisor. Max’s dad is Sid Blumenthal. Tucker is part of the underlying problem of today’s DC politics. Kids of politicians.

If this guy wasn’t his own worst enemy, he’d stop being stoppable.

Wifey....roll up a newspaper and wack him when he says the stupid stuff out loud. That’s your job. For the country.

You are a true idiot, but when a gazan kid gets killed, you have to wonder if his mom strapped a bomb to him and sent him into the plaza to kill a Jew.

The only solution to the mooselimb problem is the final solution.

I don't cheer a mooselimb kid getting dismembered, but if it kills him, that's worth at least a small round of applause.

No apology for my blunt and honest appraisal of the mooselimb scum that is the curse of the earth since 670 AD.
