"The only people who support this war are those born between 1946 and 1964 who watch a lot of Fox News. That's it. I'm not attacking them, by the way. They're Americans. They're my equals as Americans. I love a lot of them. But their perspective on the U.S. and the world is very different from everyone else's."
"The people who got Donald Trump elected are the people who hadn't voted for Republicans before or even voted at all before. They're Hispanic voters. They're young Black men. They're non-traditional Republican voters. They're Joe Rogan listeners, younger voters, and non-traditional Republican constituencies."
"Carlson's opposition to the strikes in recent weeks has drawn attacks from Fox News host Mark Levin, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and conservative commentator Ben Shapiro all of whom he has feuded with for a long time. This week, however, Cruz has branded Carlson the most dangerous demagogue in America and implied Carlson's commentary on Israel was antisemitic."
Tucker Carlson criticized President Trump's decision to launch strikes on Iran during an interview with Piers Morgan, stating the intervention has angered many of Trump's supporters who feel betrayed. Carlson defended his opposition to the strikes and Israel's involvement despite attacks from prominent conservatives including Mark Levin, Ted Cruz, and Ben Shapiro. Carlson contended that support for the military action is limited to older Republicans born between 1946 and 1964 who watch Fox News extensively. He argued that Trump's actual winning coalition—comprising younger voters, non-traditional Republicans, Hispanic voters, and Black men—opposes further Middle East conflicts and aligns with his skepticism toward military intervention.
