Longtime conservative Tucker Carlson says he is now no longer a Republican.
The fed-up former Fox News star offered the update during a Thursday podcast appearance that gained traction online Monday.
'I'm out,' Carlson said at a point during the sit-down with hosts Travis Dhanraj and Karman Wong.
'And if I'm out, then I think a lot of other people are out.'
The pundit had been in the midst of fielding a question about the rapidly approaching midterms - specifically, whether it would offer a glimpse at 'how the American people are feeling towards [Donald] Trump'.
He prefaced that recent polls 'tell a pretty clear story.'
'I would not support the Republican party. There's no chance I would support the Republican party,' he suddenly asserted, arguing that members 'betrayed' their base by backing Israel and invading Iran in February.
'How could I or any American voter support a political party that's not loyal to the United States? That puts the interests of a foreign country above those of its own citizens?
