Twenty-one months ago, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson described Donald Trump surviving an assassination attempt at the 2024 Republican National Convention as “divine intervention”—that God had saved Trump because he had a plan to lead the country.

Today, Carlson is almost taking the opposite stance. During his Monday appearance, he seemed to suggest that Trump could be the Antichrist, CNN reports.

This marked Carlson’s harshest public criticism of Trump to date. While he had previously criticized the Iran war and, more mildly, Trump himself, his latest statements were sharper than ever, highlighting a major rift between the former president and the influential conservative commentator.

Key statements from Carlson about Trump include:

Christians should reconsider supporting Trump when he claimed he invaded Venezuela for oil. “This is unacceptable for Americans or any other civilized people because you cannot allow the violent seizure of others’ property,” Carlson said.

Trump’s threat to Iran’s civilian infrastructure is a “war crime, a moral crime” that will result in “mass suffering and death.”

Carlson suggested the Trump administration may have deliberately bombed an elementary school in Iran.

He called Trump’s social media post on Easter, threatening Iran, “disgusting on every level,” criticizing it as mocking Islam, equivalent to mocking any religion.

“Many of his positions are correct, but you cannot support this. This is evil,” Carlson stressed.

He warned that Trump could soon deploy a nuclear bomb on Iran and even urged people around the president to prevent him from using nuclear codes.

Carlson criticized Trump for not placing his hand on the Bible during his inauguration, suggesting it was intentional: “Because he categorically rejects what is written in this book. And what is written in this book restricts human behavior,” he said.

He further speculated that Trump may be conducting a complex spiritual attack: “Could what you are seeing be a very hidden yet incredibly effective attack on what, from a Christian perspective, is the true faith in Jesus? … Could the president see this more broadly? See it as achieving something or being appointed to a higher purpose than the presidency of the United States?”

Carlson concluded that U.S. officials must say no—“absolutely no”—to Trump and tell him so directly.
