OK, but they've patched things up since. Look at Rubio. DeSantis. Cruz. Politics is tough. I know it makes you gleeful that things were said but the Republicans united and got Trump across. And one of his biggest supporters has been Carlson.“In a text exchange with an unknown person on Jan. 4, 2021, Carlson expressed anger toward Trump. He said that “we are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights” and that “I truly can’t wait.”
“Addressing Trump’s four years as president, Carlson said: “We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There really isn’t an upside to Trump.”
In texts early on the morning of Jan. 7, 2021, a day after the violent assault on the U.S. Capitol, Carlson and his longtime producer, Alex Pfeiffer, bemoaned how the rioters had believed Trump’s election lies.
“They take the president literally,” Pfeiffer said. “He is to blame for everything that happened today.”
“The problem is a little deeper than that I’d say,” Carlson replied.
“Obviously the problems are deep but at the core of it is Trump saying it was stolen,” Pfeiffer wrote.
“Not the core,” Carlson wrote. “Awful but a symptom.”
Later, Carlson writes of Trump: “He’s a demonic force, a destroyer. But he’s not going to destroy us. I’ve been thinking about this every day for four years.”

How do you know they patched things up? Their relationship has always been the same in public, Carlson said these things behind trumps back, the only reason we know about it is from his text messages being subpoenaed in court
I've seen them together numerous times since 2021. Likely Tucker was reacting to the J6 riot and the possibility that it would affect Republican chances going forward. You can point to that all you want but Tucker has been openly supporting Trump for years and Trump is now president. So we won. The country won.

Alright. I think Carlson is not trustworthy. I wouldn’t call someone I respect a demonic force or say I passionately hate them, let alone say it behind their back
But we’ll agree to disagree. Maybe time will tell
Time has told. Tucker is in Trump's good graces and Trump is president.
