Tucker Carlson was interviewed by the New York Times:

TIMES: You’ve been talking on your show about whether Trump is the Antichrist.

CARLSON: I have not said that.

TIMES: You said, “Here’s a leader mocking the Gods of his ancestors, mocking the God of Gods, and exalting himself above them. Could this be the Antichrist?”

CARLSON: I actually did not say “could this be the Antichrist?”

The New York Times played an audio clip of him saying exactly that.

CARLSON: I don’t know where that comes from, but I know those words never left my lips.
