Tucker Carlson Responds to Becoming Donald Trump's Vice President
2023-12-10
[Gateway] The Gateway Pundit previously reported that former Fox News host and current X/Twitter star Tucker Carlson is garnering VP consideration from conservatives and members of President Trump’s team. Now, Tucker has responded to these calls.

As Semafor reported, Tucker gave the keynote speech Thursday night at the American Principles Project Foundation’s annual Christmas gala where he spoke about his Christian faith, optimism, and an America where "everything’s falling apart. Afterward, an audience member asked him to address the VP reports.

While Tucker did not wholly rule out serving as Trump’s sidekick, he said, "God would have to yell at me very loud." He also expressed anxiety about transitioning from being a well-paid private citizen to becoming a politician.

"To go from being, like, a well-paid street corner schizophrenic to, like, a politician — it’s just kind of hard to envision," Tucker said.

#3  He has no executive experience. He would still make a better president than any of the candidates that ran this cycle on either side other than Trump. Some would argue for DeSantis but the primary attribute I am looking for is a desire to save our country from the government.

#2  Tucker appears to have taken over the spot of Rush.
We must consider that any VP selected will most likely become president upon the assassination of the presidential candidate. Given all the back stabbing that has gone on, Trump is going to be working in a very heightened environment of those who he can personally trust and are loyal. Throw in any one now being funded by the anti-Trump camp within and outside the party, that's going to hard task and a very small circle of people.

Tucker will do far more damage in the spot that he's serving. He would make a great VP, but he is doing far more damage exposing what is going on in the world than he would be cutting ribbons.

I think he would be fantastic and I would love for him to be in line for the presidency, but Kari Lake and others would also be fantastic.
