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.’

President Trump responded to Tucker’s criticisms in a Truth Social post.
“Somebody please explain to kooky Tucker Carlson that,” IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON!”” Trump said.
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.
