New York, NY — Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson is disputing claims that he suggested President Donald Trump could be the “Antichrist,” following a tense interview with The New York Times.
During the interview, journalist Lulu Garcia-Navarro referenced a prior episode of Carlson’s show in which he raised the question while discussing Trump’s actions related to Iran and his social media activity. Carlson initially denied making the remark, but after being played the clip, he said the comments were meant to explore broader themes rather than assert a literal belief.
The exchange comes during a growing public divide between Carlson and Trump, once political allies, particularly over U.S. policy toward Iran. Carlson has been critical of military escalation, while Trump has defended a more aggressive posture.
The controversy also drew reactions online, with several political figures criticizing Carlson’s response to the interview. The incident highlights how disagreements within conservative circles are becoming more visible, especially on foreign policy and messaging strategy.
