Tucker Carlson Says He REGRETS Supporting Trump

The episode opens with a critique of the Trump administration's stalled diplomatic efforts in Iran, highlighting the collapse of Vice President J.D. Vance's peace mission due to Iran's non-response and Trump's public, premature announcements on social media. Host Alex Wagner and guest Mark Leibovich dissect the administration's foreign policy chaos, emphasizing Trump's erratic communication style and the resulting erosion of credibility both domestically and internationally. The conversation then shifts to a major political development: Tucker Carlson’s public regret over supporting Trump’s Iran war, calling it a heartfelt mea culpa that acknowledges his role in misleading audiences. Leibovich analyzes the significance of this moment, suggesting it may signal a fracture within the MAGA movement and open space for Republican lawmakers to distance themselves from Trump amid mounting political and economic fallout. The segment closes with a deep dive into California’s chaotic gubernatorial race, where a jungle primary and a field of obscure candidates could unexpectedly propel two Republicans to the general election, despite low overall support.
