Tucker Carlson: ‘Obviously’ We’re ‘Speeding Toward Assassination’ of Trump
The Daily Beast via Yahoo ^ | August 30th, 2023 | Justin Baragona

Posted on 08/30/2023 1:18:32 PM PDT by Mariner

Twitter podcaster Tucker Carlson is pounding home the theory that Democrats and the D.C. establishment are plotting to kill Donald Trump, this time claiming that we’re “speeding toward assassination” because “permanent Washington” has decided they “just can’t have” Trump as president again.

Appearing on anti-woke comedian Adam Carolla’s YouTube show this week, Carlson weighed in on his sitdown with Trump that aired on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, last week. That interview was planned by both Carlson and Trump—both of whom have their own grievances with Fox News—as counter-programming to the right-wing network’s GOP presidential primary debate that Trump skipped.

At one point, Carolla asked the former Fox News star what “the future holds” and whether “they are going to let Trump be president,” prompting Carlson to begin raging about the impeachments and criminal indictments the ex-president has faced. And, of course, Carlson also tossed in some Jan. 6 trutherism for good measure.

“They protested him, they called him names. He won anyway. They impeached him twice on ridiculous pretenses,” the far-right nationalist pundit exclaimed. “They fabricated a lot about what happened on January 6 in order to impeach him again. It didn’t work. He came back. Then they indicted him. It didn’t work. He became more popular. Then they indicted him three more times. And every single time his popularity rose.”

I have no doubt this is the plan, in spite of their knowledge of the conflagration that will result.

They're ready to make their move.

I think it’s impressive Tucker is willing to play this card so early into his independent consulting career. I do worry what will happen if 2024 arrives and he doesn’t have other Bolder Stories to share.

The Democrats will try even if LBJ and Robert Byrd rose up and warned them what a huge mistake it would be.

Chuck Schumer famously warned :

” If you cross the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday to get back at you “.

The first five ways have backfired on them. Let’s hope the 6th is not the same as the JFK and RFK Sr.’s solution.

Tucker is right and should be allowed to say it.

Some elsewhere said last week “he went too far.”

No.

I lived through 1968 and don’t need to see everyone else get up to speed with me to figure it all out.
The American people are enablers of a vicious elite deep state that has been around much too long. Stolen elections
and out of control lawfare are Plan A. Death is Plan B.

May God protect Donald Trump.

Assassinating a President? Well, it wouldn’t be the first time.

I’m hoping that Tucker putting this assassination scenario out there might make them think twice. If they’re accused of it ahead of time, it might head it off at the pass.

Well, the board desantis supporters/nevertrumpers say that too, as a reason people have to have desanctimonious as the person to vote for and support after Trump, expecting for that to happens.

Will it? If the deep-state has shown anything, its that it is willing to push the envelope of consequences - in Ukraine, in Europe, and certainly, domestically.

I see a very clear path about lying about the cause of said assassination, then suppressing any immediate rancor, then using said rancor for even further propaganda and controls.

Not yet.

Right now the left is cocky & arrogant, they have a blow out election in 2024 according to their oracles, when this fantasy disappears that is when the lone nutjob “to save democracy” will appear.

The dems will not accept a Trump presidency. After his election they will continue the character assassination, trotting out one ho after another who will say he assaulted them. They will even go so far as to release a deadly virus so as to get him out of office.

(That sounds vaguely familiar...)

Probably true. UNLESS “they” think a Trump win is an even faster way to the chaos they need. I.e...riots etc.

It would be about the dumbest thing they could do at this point. You murder Trump and automatically you have made him the Martyr for All Time in the U.S.. He will immediately assume Myth like status and will be seen as the Hero who gave his life for his country to Millions of people and history may treat him as such.

For Trump it would be the ultimate, he goes down in history as a man who was fighting the Deep State and gave his life for his country. The backlash against the Left would be unreal I believe. It actually might open the way to real reform, then again who knows.

That is a crazy, self destructive thing for Tucker to say.

In the first place, There’s probably a sixty - seventy percent chance that some will that Trump will receive some kind of jail sentence. So nobody has to kill him.

In the second place, Trump being active is probably the biggest vote getter outer that the Dems have. He is thus more valuable alive than dead.

Lastly, the Dems have nothing to worry about given the scope of their cheat machine.

If they do it they will use a low level “mentally unstable” assassin who will take the fall. Trump needs to be very very tight with his security, especially access to his airplane. Getting Prigozhined is also a real possibility

How helpful is a declaration like that? Why make such an incendiary and potentially dangerous statement? I mean what good did TC do or what kind of objective did he have by making such a statement?

Seems like all he’s done is embolden Trump’s criminal enemies as well as dangerous borderline cases.

Just because a public figure like TC think it’s true doesn’t mean he should go around popping about it. Some things are better left confidential.

Definitely harmful and irresponsible.

For me, the jury’s still out on TC.
