Commentator Tucker Carlson publicly criticized President Donald Trump, stating he “feels sorry” to see the American leader constrained in decisions regarding the Iran conflict.

The remarks were made after President Trump attacked a series of conservative figures, including Carlson, in a lengthy social media post, accusing them of criticizing the administration’s strategy in the confrontation with Iran.

According to a report from Newsmax, Carlson responded that he still maintains sympathy for President Trump but observed that he is under pressure from external factors and cannot exercise full decision-making power.

Earlier, President Trump criticized Carlson alongside Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones, claiming this group lacks competence and is intentionally creating controversy instead of supporting the tough message from the administration.

These figures have recently spoken out repeatedly in opposition to the handling of the Iran conflict, arguing that the Trump administration has strayed from campaign promises to limit military intervention.

Tensions between President Trump and prominent conservative voices reflect internal divisions within the support base as the Middle East conflict persists, including efforts such as phone calls regarding the Iran conflict to seek solutions and alleviate domestic political pressure.
