Tucker Carlson: Trump ‘Obviously’ Going To Be Indicted

Tucker Carlson: Trump ‘Obviously’ Going To Be Indicted

Fox News host Tucker Carlson opined Monday that President Joe Biden’s Justice Department indictment of Donald Trump is inevitable. He added his expectation that Republican lawmakers will still be insisting there is nothing to see, move along.

Carlson claimed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) Representative Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) and Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R-AR) will stand idly by when the former president is indicted.

The Hill further reported:

“Obviously they’re going to do that,” Carlson continued. “Who knows how, maybe they’ll produce surveillance video from Mar-a-Lago, apparently they’ve already subpoenaed that.”

The Aug. 8 search was authorized by a federal judge, and while many elected Republicans who support Trump have suggested a political motivation, the White House said President Biden was unaware of the search beforehand. No evidence has been presented to suggest Biden had prior knowledge of the search.   

Multiple news reports have revealed the search was executed in connection with classified documents reportedly taken from Trump’s White House without authorization. The FBI and Justice Department have not explicitly indicated Trump is the focus of a criminal investigation in the matter and have said little about the probe publicly.

Carlson’s comments are his first since the search warrant was executed a week ago, sparking a firestorm of speculation and political backlash from the former president’s defenders.

The incident has also led to an increase in threats to federal law enforcement in recent days and inspired Attorney General Merrick Garland, in rare public remarks, to push back on his department’s critics.

Trump, who has repeatedly attacked the Justice Department and FBI following the search, said the “temperature has to be brought down in the country,” hours after Steve Doocy, another Fox News host, implored the president to do so on air Monday morning.

Carlson also praised Trump’s call for calm on Monday.

“You can feel it, even Donald Trump feels it. Maybe for the first time in his life, Donald Trump seems sincerely interested in lowering the temperature, not only for his own stake, but for the country’s,” Carlson said. “He’s right. It’s not good. This could get very bad, very fast.”

The burning question about Justice Department claims of Espionage Act violations by Trump is: “Why?” What would he want with nuclear documents? Will Attorney General Merrick Garland allege the 45th president wanted design documents so he could build his own nukes? And, like a failed candidate on his former reality show “The Apprentice,” he can then fire them?

Or will they allege the billionaire former president planned to supplement his 401k by selling nuclear secrets to foreign sovereigns?

A worried nation can only pray that criminal prosecutions of former presidents do not become as routine as impeachment of sitting presidents has become.
