Cruz: Carlson more anti-Trump than Democrats
Sen. Ted Cruz blames Tucker Carlson for rising antisemitism among young conservatives and warns of losing the next generation if the trend is not confronted, citing 85-90% Republican support against antisemitism.
- On Tuesday, Sen. Ted Cruz declared all-out war on Tucker Carlson at the National Review's 'Symposium on Antisemitism,' calling Carlson the single-most dangerous demagogue.
- Citing campus episodes, Cruz warned antisemitism is rising among young conservatives and pointed to two viral Turning Point USA events where students cheered anti-Israel questions.
- After leaving Fox News, Tucker Carlson's recent videos include seven of nine on YouTube mentioning Israel or Netanyahu, and he booked extremist Nick Fuentes, Cruz pointed out.
- The remarks deepen an intra-GOP feud as Cruz criticizes colleagues for not condemning Carlson, while Trump and others offer mixed responses.
- Cruz warned that if Carlson and his followers prevail, both major parties could become unambiguously anti-Israel and unapologetically antisemitic, and he urged Christian pastors to counter Carlson’s theology and investigators to 'follow the money,' suggesting foreign funding though he acknowledged lacking proof.
