The View Hosts Rip Tucker Carlson's GOP Exit After Trump's Iran War

1 articles · Updated · The Daily Beast · Jun 23

Summary

  • Tucker Carlson’s break with Republicans over Trump’s Iran war drew sharp criticism on Tuesday’s The View, where Alyssa Farah Griffin said he would return “as soon as there’s another election.”
  • Carlson said on a Thursday podcast he was “done” supporting the Republican Party because it no longer represents its voters, adding he would back neither Republicans nor Democrats.
  • The hosts argued his anti-GOP turn lacked credibility because he had backed Trump despite long-standing concerns, with Joy Behar tying wider conservative frustration to foreign intervention, rising prices and inflation.
  • Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Monday post backing Carlson gave the split broader MAGA context, though the panel said her break with Trump appeared more genuine than Carlson’s.
