In 2024, the well-known ideologist of “Trumpism” Tucker Carlson may become a candidate for the post of the US President from the Republican Party.
Popular edition Fox News shares the current president’s ideas, including anti-immigrant nationalism, economic populism, and American isolationism. At the same time, he showed a rare Republican willingness to directly criticize Trump.
According to the publication “Politico”, the name of Carlson is already popular among republican political strategists.
“He is a talented communicator with a mass audience. I think that if he participates [in the election], he will be formidable”, – said Republican Party strategist Luke Thompson.
This opinion is shared by 16 prominent Republicans interviewed by the publication. At the same time, politicians who are well acquainted with Carlson expressed doubt that the TV presenter would give up his prime time.
The journalist himself, as well as the Fox News television channel, did not comment on the information.
