Sharpton: Carlson Not ‘Going over the Cliff’ with Trump, GOP
Sharpton said Carlson is not a hypocrite after the former Fox News host said he is done with Republicans and will not back any in the future.
- On Tuesday, Tucker Carlson announced he has de-registered as a Republican, declaring he is finished with the Republican Party and will not support its candidates.
- Once a vocal supporter who campaigned for President Donald Trump in 2024, Carlson has grown critical of the president regarding the war in Iran and apologized to voters for "misleading" them.
- Sharpton argued Carlson saved himself from the "cliff" Trump is going over but pushed back against allegations the former Fox News host is a "hypocrite" or "liar." He called Carlson a "very strange guy."
- Carlson's chances of securing the Republican nomination jumped to nearly 10% on Polymarket this month, while he told Alex Jones that California Gov Gavin Newsom is a "sociopath."
- This shift forms part of a widening phenomenon of "America first" right-wingers turning on Israel; Carlson has become well-known for his opposition to Zionism, prompting one lobby organization to name him "Antisemite of the Year" in late 2025.
