Greg Kelly of Newsmax interviewed Former President Trump after the news broke on Monday that Tucker was no longer at Fox News:
“So, Tucker Carlson was sitting here two weeks ago interviewing you,” Kelly said, referring to the softball interview Carlson conducted with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. “He’s gone. What do you make of that?”
Well, I’m shocked. I’m surprised. He’s a very good person and a very good man, and very talented as you know. And he had very high ratings. So, we’re just learning about it almost as we speak. You and I just said, “Wow, that was something, that’s a big one.” I don’t know if it was voluntary, or was it, somebody fired? But I think Tucker’s been terrific. He’s been – especially over the last year or so – he’s been terrific to me.
“There’s a lot of turmoil over there, Fox,” Kelly said. “I mean, [$787 million] they just paid. Why would they get rid of a guy who’s performing–why would somebody do that to their business? Because they’re losing money right now. Their stock has gone down.”
“Well, I was surprised that they made a settlement on that case,” Trump responded. “But the Tucker situation again, you don’t know if it’s a firing. Maybe he left because he wasn’t being given his free rein. He wants free rein, maybe. But I was surprised by it.”

Watch starting 1.00, something was off when he said ” I’m not representing Fox” clearly, he doesn’t feel sorry for Tucker, because he said it, he supports Kennedy not Trump. Was that a crime?
This freak is not shocked and he’s saying maybe this is the consequence of wanting free rein? FREE REIN PEOPLE : A threat for you Mr Trump? You always been a deep state slave and want everybody to believe this is what they MUST do?! It’s over Don, we know all those shady games you have been playing!
I’m sure he was shocked. In MAGA velt, being a world-class liar, racist and misogynist would have gotten you promoted with a big bonus.
Tucker Carlson did what no president nor any former president was able to do: To speak the truth in a crucial moment.
While RFK Jr.’s previous anti-vaccine remarks have stirred up some backlash, Carlson embraced Kennedy’s statements, even echoing them sometimes.
During an episode of his show earlier this year, the now former Fox News anchor compared the vaccination campaign during the COVID-19 pandemic to “what the imperial Japanese army and the Nazis did in their medical experiments.”
Good riddance
Zetruth. You sound like you are hallucinating.
Trump spoke very to the Zach. The שנאת חמם on this site is awesome
Mike is right.

Who even cares about Fox News. It is funny as so many of you spent so much time making fun of CNN and others as Fake News, when in-fact Fox openly admits they report whatever they think gets views and they did not care one whit about truth. Like literally they were all lying through there teeth on-air and when off-air they were trashing their own reporting.
Do all of you realize that Carlson is an entertainer or a pundit not a journalist or a reporter?
