In a New York Times interview published Saturday, Tucker Carlson denied telling anyone Donald Trump was the 'Antichrist' and said he never used that wording. Carlson framed his public split with Trump around a policy rift over Iran, saying disagreement on military action drove their fallout. He acknowledged regret for his past interview with Nick Fuentes while stressing political ties to figures like J.D. Vance and attacking Marco Rubio. The interview matters because Carlson is reshaping his public standing, distancing from Trump while addressing controversies that influence conservative politics ahead of 2024.
