Tucker Drops Trump Jail Bombshell After Sentence

Tucker Carlson recently railed against the prosecutions of former President Donald Trump and predicted they will lead to violence via Mediaite.

 


 

The former Fox News host recently appeared on Monday’s edition of The Megyn Kelly Show, where both blasted the charges brought against Trump in four jurisdictions.  Trump is being prosecuted in two federal cases.

It has been noted that one pertains to his effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election after he lost. The other stems from his retention of government documents after he left office. He is also being prosecuted in Georgia for his attempt to subvert the election results in that state. Lastly, he faces charges in New York of falsifying business records to conceal hush money payments.

In all, Trump faces 91 counts and has pleaded not guilty to all of them. He is also facing civil fraud charges in New York.

Megyn Kelly predicted to Carlson that Trump will be found guilty in his federal case regarding the election. She further said if the judge in the case puts Trump in prison while he appeals, “the country’s gonna burn.”

“I’m not calling for violence,” she said. “But there is no way the Trump base is not going to be beside itself with anger at that level of deprivation of being able to simply vote for the candidate of choice. That’s what’s being taken away here.”

It should be noted that Trump may still appear on the ballot if he has been convicted.

Carlson responded by calling violence “the worst thing” before explaining why Trump’s supporters might become violent.

“If you leave people no alternative, then what do you think is gonna happen?” he said. “I mean, the whole point of electoral democracy is that it’s a pressure relief valve that takes people who are very frustrated with the way things are going and gives them a way to express themselves, have their desires heard and ultimately their will done, to be represented in a peaceful way.”

Carlson went on to claim the 2020 election was “unfair” because social media companies suppressed the Hunter Biden laptop story from their platforms. He then agreed with Kelly’s assessment that Trump supporters will react violently:

You’re rigging the election. And they did that. So, if you keep doing that, and people are like, “Wait, I have no economic power. You’ve devalued my currency so it’s like, $11 for a dozen eggs. And my vote doesn’t matter anymore, well then, what do I have? Like, what power do I have?”

And you’re gonna get violence if you keep this shit up. That’s just the truth. And I’m very upset about that. I don’t want that to happen. I think the counter-violence will be much more extreme than the violence, but any rational person can see what’s coming. So, they have to stop this. The charges against Trump are not real. They’re not even for serious crimes.
