"The popular conservative media personality, who hosts The Tucker Carlson Show podcast, has recently criticized the president over his war with Iran, including condemning the military campaign as "absolutely disgusting and evil" in a statement to ABC News' Jonathan Karl late last month, just hours after the attacks began.

The president slammed Carlson days later during an interview with Karl.

"Tucker has lost his way," Trump said. "I knew that a long time ago, and he's not MAGA. MAGA is saving our country. MAGA is making our country great again."

"MAGA is America first, and Tucker is none of those things. And Tucker is really not smart enough to understand that," he added."
