President Donald Trump shared a New York Post article trashing his former ally Tucker Carlson as a “deranged” back-stabber and promoter of “antisemites, Islamic extremists and World War II revisionists” on Wednesday evening.

In a late-night Truth Social spree, Trump shared an article written by Neoconservatism: Why We Need It author Douglas Murray titled, “Deranged Tucker Carlson backstabs Trump.”

“While the president has advocated a strong defense of America’s regional allies, Carlson has spent 100% of his time trying to turn the MAGA base against Israel and in favor of Islamist regimes,” wrote Murray in the article, accusing Carlson of hosting “a remorseless roll call of Holocaust deniers, antisemites, Islamic extremists and World War II revisionists” on his YouTube show.

Murray went on to argue that Carlson had become “obsessed” with Israel and had “talked about nothing but Jews” in recent years, since his departure from Fox News.

“This obsession has culminated in a total derangement over the president’s Iran policy,” Murray concluded. “From being Trump cheerleaders, Carlson & co. are trying to do everything they can to destroy the president.”

Trump has repeatedly lashed out at his former ally for criticizing the Trump administration’s ongoing war against Iran.

“Tucker has lost his way,” said Trump during an interview with ABC News’ Jonathan Karl last month. “I knew that a long time ago, and he’s not MAGA. MAGA is saving our country. MAGA is making our country great again. MAGA is America first, and Tucker is none of those things. And Tucker is really not smart enough to understand that.”
