Tucker Carlson Hatches Plan To Jump Into 2024 Republican Primary After Meeting With Trump, Report

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America, and we have

massive news coming from the camp of Tucker Carlson as far as what his next steps are

And folks, they're a doozy, and they involve the 2024 presidential race

and expect from us. Folks, Tucker Carlson, not only is he taking it to the Republican Party

not only is he taking matters into his own hands, but he's going to stick it to Fox News

in the process if the reports out of the Washington Post are to be believed. Apparently

Tucker Carlson has met with former President Donald Trump, and he's pitched him an idea

that the former president really likes. Fox News will be hosting the first debate

of the primary season, or so they think. But Tucker Carlson is coming to the rescue and saying

hey look, I'll host the first debate of the primary season. I'll be the moderator. I'll get

Trump and all the other people here, and we'll have a debate. And the reason for it

is more than even twofold. Number one, it keeps Tucker Carlson's name in the news

It makes him relevant. He gives him the position almost of kingmaker in the Republican Party

Keeping his sphere of influence is so important. You see when Bill O'Reilly left. You see when

Megyn Kelly left. They kept, they made a lot of money, and they kept the money, you know

and all that stuff that came with it. But they lost that influence. They lost that power. And

Tucker, I think he's a true believer like Megyn Kelly said. He's a true believer. He wants to

influence the country. He wants to influence the party. He wants to help shape the direction that

we're going in as a nation and as conservatives. I respect that, and I think that Tucker

you know, he's the right guy for that kind of job. He's a guy that we can trust, and that's

in a business that has become so jaded and so about, you know, money and doing what your

corporate sponsors want. Something like Tucker is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. And so I think

you know, he's the right guy for the job because he's a truth teller. That's the first thing

The second thing is he sticks it to Fox News. Fox News has the first debate, but Trump doesn't want

to do the Fox News debate. Trump has started to boycott the Fox News debate. Well, if he does the

Tucker debate and not the Fox News debate, guess where all the eyes are going to be

Guess where all the eyes are going to be? They're going to be on Tucker Carlson. Now, this puts him in a unique position because he'd have to forfeit money that's on the table with

Fox News in order to do this. Can he get out of the contract? Can he say, look, they're not using me

I want out of my contract. I want to do things on my own. He probably can, but that's for lawyers

and courts to determine. What Fox is trying to do, which is bench him and pay him, is an attempt to

destroy him and destroy his career, which seems totally unnecessary. If he gets out of the

contract, it allows him to be an influencer. So he'll make less money in the short term

but more money probably in the long term. And then he could do his own thing. He's got $100

million contract waiting for him from Valuetainment and Patrick Bet-David. He's got

offers waiting from Newsmax and One America News, although the Newsmax one is significantly more

money. Tucker Carlson can write his own check right now, but if Fox keeps him on the sidelines

long enough, if they let his influence wane, so does his ability to monetize his value and his

audience. So this is a smart move for Tucker in so many different ways. Being a prominent voice

in the 2024 Republican primary without having to be a candidate himself, well, that might just be

the smartest thing he's ever done. Folks, again, my name is Carmine Sabia. This is Explain America
