A viewer has criticized Tucker Carlson’s recent interview with Kevin O’Leary for its escalating hostility and anti-American rhetoric.

Over the past three to six months, Carlson has been described as becoming “unwatchable” due to his anger, rudeness, and antagonism toward guests. The host has frequently expressed anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, and increasingly anti-American views that have drawn significant criticism from viewers.

In this latest episode, Carlson questioned O’Leary about the United States’ competitive position in artificial intelligence, stating a desire for America to lose to China in that race. He also cast doubt on the Constitution, the Supreme Court, and state-level government initiatives aimed at infrastructure development.

The viewer noted that Carlson pre-recorded segments where he attacked O’Leary’s character before airing the full interview—a tactic they described as undermining constructive dialogue. Additionally, the host shifted focus from Israel to an even more aggressive critique of American institutions.

This episode prompted the viewer to state that after months of avoiding Carlson’s show due to its hostility, they had hoped to tune in but instead encountered “off the charts” anti-American rhetoric. The viewer added that they are unsure who this new iteration of Carlson has become, describing him as “full of anger and hatred and animus and spite,” and stated they “sure do miss the old Tucker.”
