Tucker Carlson calls Chris Wallace a ‘bitchy little man’

Pundit Tucker Carlson called fellow former Fox News host Chris Wallace a “bitchy little man” during an interview with former President Trump that posted Wednesday night.

Trump had been referring to a GOP debate that Wallace moderated during the 2020 general election, telling Carlson that Wallace was “probably not a friend of yours” while the two were at Fox together.

“No,” Carlson said. “Not a friend.”

“He wants to be Mike, but he doesn’t have the talent,” Trump said in reference to Wallace’s father, who was also a veteran television news journalist.

“Bitchy little man,” Carlson said in reference to Wallace. “He’s a fussy little man.”

Wallace, the former host of “Fox News Sunday” and a regular debate moderator for the network, left Fox shortly after the 2020 election to take job hosting a show focusing on pop culture and other topics outside of politics for CNN.

Wallace moderated a chaotic debate between Trump and then-candidate Joe Biden during the 2020 general election campaign in which Trump repeatedly interrupted him. Shortly after, he called the debate “a terrible missed opportunity.”

Carlson, Fox’s former top-rated host, was fired by the network in April and has since started a version of his show on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.

Trump skipped Wednesday night’s debate on Fox to instead appear on Carlson’s program on X.
