In September 2023 when American journalist Tucker Carlson predicted a plot to kill former U.S. president Donald Trump to scuttle his reemergence, he was dismissed as a conspiracy theorist.
But on Saturday July 13, an attempt to kill Trump was made by one Mathew Crooks, now deceased.
The shooter’s bullet bruised Trump’s ear and killed a supporter of the presumptive Republican Nominee before the shooter himself was killed.
But last September when Tucker Carlson alleged that with all attempts to stop Trump from reemerging failing, he could be killed.
In an interview with the comedian and podcaster Adam Carolla, Carlson was asked to comment on what the future holds for Trump, Carlson said: “If you begin with criticism, then you go to protest, then you go to impeachment, now you go to indictment and none of them work. What’s next? Graph it out, man. We’re speeding towards assassination, obviously. … They have decided — permanent Washington, both parties have decided — that there’s something about Trump that’s so threatening to them, they just can’t have him,” Carlson said in the interview, which was posted online last September.
Carlson later interviewed Trump and asked him whether he was “worried that they’re going to try and kill you.”
Carlson said to Trump during that interview: “Why wouldn’t they try and kill you? Honestly,” Carlson asked. In response, Trump said: “They’re savage animals. They’re people that are sick.”
