The US is on the “path to revolution” because President Donald Trump has betrayed Americans by putting foreign interests ahead of those of his own country, according to Tucker Carlson.
In an interview on Bloomberg’s The Mishal Husain Show on Friday, Tucker – once among Trump’s most influential supporters – accused the president of being “totally disloyal” to America saying he had “cheated on the United States with a foreign power.”
“This is why countries have revolutions,” Carlson said, adding: “I don’t want revolution, but we’re going to get a revolution if this continues.”

The former Fox News host, who backed Trump’s 2024 reelection campaign before breaking with him over Iran, argued that many Americans no longer believed the political system represented their interests.

He said Republicans had failed to fulfill promises to dismantle the “deep state,” citing the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files as evidence of why many supporters had lost faith in the party.
Carlson has become increasingly critical of US backing for Israel’s war in Gaza and publicly urged Trump not to attack Iran during Israel’s 12-Day War with the Islamic Republic in June 2025. Their rift deepened after the US joined Israel’s strikes on Iran in late February, with Carlson accusing Trump of putting Israeli interests ahead of America’s. He also described Trump’s “true religion” as “Israelism” and called the Iran war “disgusting and evil.”
“Trump allowed the US government to be completely steered by this tiny little country in the Middle East, Israel, to our great detriment,” Carlson told Bloomberg, adding that he had argued directly against Trump’s approach, but “that had no effect at all.”
“And then we wound up in a war with Iran that has gravely hurt the United States,” he said.
The interview comes as the US continues its military campaign against Iran. US Central Command said it had completed a sixth consecutive night of strikes on Thursday after Trump threatened to expand attacks to Iranian energy infrastructure and bridges.
Iran has responded with drone and missile strikes on US military facilities across the region. Tehran has also warned that regional oil and gas exports could be halted, while the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy has declared the Strait of Hormuz closed until Washington ends its “illegal”military intervention.
