ERROR LOADING Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson got extra weird at a rally for Donald Trump on Wednesday when he compared the former president to an abusive “dad” ready to bring order to his household. Carlson, who last month hosted a Nazi apologist on his X platform show, spoke of a toddler smearing his diaper contents, a teen smoking a joint at breakfast and a “hormone-addled 15-year-old daughter” who slams her door and gives the finger.

You’ve been a bad girl. You’ve been a bad little girl and you’re getting a vigorous spanking right now,” Carlson said. “And, no, it’s not going to hurt me more than it hurts you. No it’s not. I’m not going to lie. It’s going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me. And you earned this. You’re getting a vigorous spanking because you’ve been a bad girl, and it has to be this way.” Fox News parted ways with Carlson last year after the right-wing network settled a defamation lawsuit brought by Dominion Voting Systems for $787.5 million related to repeated lies on the news channel about election fraud. Court documents from the case included private messages by the network’s stars, including messages from Carlson in which he admitted that he “hates” Trump “passionately” and “can’t wait” to ignore him. Now he’s one of the former president’s biggest boosters, speaking at events including the Republican National Convention and Trump’s rally in Georgia on Wednesday.
