Tucker Carlson, a well-known wild-card Fox host with radical views, is considering running for the 2024 Presidential race. Indicators that the outspoken Fox host is toying with the idea have been suggested by his latest trip to Iowa, in an article by Yahoo! News.
Will Carlson Run for President?
Controversial The Fox presenter sparked new media rumors that he will run for president of the United States in 2024 by making some potentially telling remarks during his most recent visit to Iowa, a crucial early battleground state for hopefuls in the American electoral system, reported RT.
About US Senator Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), a seasoned politician who makes a point of visiting all 99 counties in the state during his campaigns, he added that he "did the full Grassley."
Despite Carlson's repeated denials, that remark was enough of a "clue" for Yahoo! News to imply that he is contemplating running for president in 2024.
Carlson is reportedly highly interested, according to Jon Schweppe, who was quoted by Yahoo! as the American Principles Project's director of policy, noted Disclosure News.
Democrats have another popular pro-GOP candidate to contend with if it was not bad enough for them.
Politico suggested last week that Jon Stewart, a former talk show host, could run on the Democratic ticket if he faces up against Tucker Carlson, a wild card Fox host in the 2024 presidential race, a strong possibility.
A contributor, Juleanna Glover, added and warned that Carlson might run in 2024, being very popular and whose opinions are powerful enough to move his supporters.
She said the host is extremely well-liked, eloquent in his opinions, and has questioned whether the Biden administration can secure the Republican nomination.
Conservative commentator Jonah Goldberg, an ex-coworker of the host, claims that Carlson sees the potential as another Pat Buchanan and a serious competitor.
In an attempt to put to rest the rumors surrounding his future candidacy, he said in an interview last week that he won't run for president in 2024 or probably in any other year.
He spoke to Semafor co-founder Ben Smith, who remarked that power is not the goal. It's annoying, and it should be changed. Dominating or controlling people has no attraction at all.
Carlson Hints at Running
The Fox host has denied on earlier occasions that running for the Oval Office has never been a goal. In June 2021, he admitted that working as a talk show host is his interest and is much preferred.
Cable news has never had a host more identified and popular in US history, all his shows have 3 million viewers and are a regular every night! In October, a record 5.3 million views were recorded for cable news.
He has sparred regularly with opponent CNN hosts and aired harsh opinions that have attracted controversy. To date, he's speaking out against the government amidst the crisis it has caused.
Democrats see Tucker Carlson as a wild card Fox host who might join the 2024 presidential races, making their cause more horrendous in beating a bloody midterm.
