Snip:

On Monday, influential ultraconservative journalist Tucker Carlson apologized for having openly supported U.S. President Donald Trump, a decision he said has left him “tormented.”

Carlson made the remarks during a conversation on his podcast with his brother Buckley Carlson, who also backed Trump and wrote speeches for the Republican leader.

“This will torment us for a long time. It will torment me. I want to apologize for having misled people. It was not intentional,” Carlson said.

The journalist, who for years was one of the star hosts on Fox News and among the media figures who most strongly supported Trump, now maintains a tense relationship with the U.S. president due to the Republican leader’s backing of Israel and the war on Iran.
