It’s no secret that Tucker Carlson has become more influential since leaving Fox News. Free from network restraints, he’s had no shortage of places to speak his mind. His appearance at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally this weekend proved just how much pull he still has.
Carlson, co-founder of the Daily Caller News Foundation, took the stage alongside a star-studded line-up that included figures like Vivek Ramaswamy, Rep. Byron Donalds, and former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard. He didn’t waste any time, launching into a no-holds-barred critique of the Democratic Party.
Addressing a packed stadium, Carlson electrified the audience with his blunt take on the 2024 election. And in three words he described what was going to happen soon.
From Daily Caller:
Daily Caller News Foundation co-founder Tucker Carlson took aim at the Democratic Party during Sunday’s Trump rally, confidently declaring his belief that the former president will win the 2024 election in under 10 days…“… That’s Donald Trump, back in the city that produced him with no embarrassment at all in a room full of his friends. The stones that takes, the bravery that takes is incredible. Donald Trump’s gonna win. He’s gonna win. I know that that’s true,” Carlson said.
Carlson’s Fiery Speech: Taking Aim at the Left
So, what were those words? Carlson didn’t disappoint. As he leaned into the mic, he boldly declared, “Trump’s gonna win.” And it wasn’t just the words—it was the confidence and conviction that had everyone in the arena on their feet.
“The people he’s about to defeat have no idea,” he said, referring to Trump’s opponents. “They’re panicked, and they don’t know why.”
The crowd erupted in laughter as Carlson mocked the Democrats’ confusion. “Their first theory was, ‘Well, Donald Trump is evil, so half the country’s evil also.’” Carlson claimed that this flawed view has driven the left to try to “destroy the country,” purely out of frustration with Trump’s voter support. The message resonated with the audience, who cheered Carlson’s insights on the disconnect between elites and ordinary Americans.
“The Big Lie” of the Left’s Supposed Greatness
One of the biggest applause lines of the night came when Carlson tackled what he called the Democrats’ “biggest lie”—that they’re somehow “impressive.” He laid it out plainly, saying, “The big lie is that they’re impressive, that they’ve earned the right to rule over you.” Carlson’s no-nonsense tone struck a chord with supporters tired of what he described as the left’s undeserved sense of superiority.
Carlson didn’t hold back, pointing fingers at public figures he considers emblematic of this problem, like Liz Cheney and Larry Fink. “They have no skills whatsoever,” he said. “These are the single most useless people in the United States.” By challenging the idea that these leaders have somehow “earned” their positions, Carlson tapped into a deep frustration many conservatives feel about the current political establishment.
Calling Out the System and Rallying Behind Trump
Carlson painted a picture of an elite class that’s rigged the system for their benefit, a sentiment that echoed Trump’s own campaign message of draining the swamp. He argued that Trump’s ability to “call BS” on the political charade has inspired countless Americans to do the same. Carlson’s speech wasn’t just about Trump; it was about a movement of Americans who feel liberated to “say what’s obviously true.”
As the rally roared with approval, Carlson made it clear that Trump supporters aren’t backing down. He emphasized that Trump has emboldened people to reject the left’s narratives and push back against what he considers a “charade” of Democratic leadership. For Carlson, Trump’s strength lies in his authenticity and his ability to give voice to Americans fed up with the status quo.
Liberating a Silenced Majority
Carlson then highlighted what he believes is Trump’s key to success: his genuine connection with voters. “Trump has affection for the people,” Carlson said, adding that this affection has allowed Americans to see through the left’s “lies.” The crowd responded to Carlson’s words with chants of “USA,” creating a powerful sense of unity and shared purpose in Madison Square Garden.
It’s this connection, Carlson argued, that has led to what he calls a “liberation” for conservatives, who now feel free to speak their minds. With only days until Election Day, Carlson’s words rallied the crowd, instilling them with a renewed sense of purpose. This, he suggested, is why the Democrats are “panicked”—because they can no longer control the narrative.
Predicting a Tough Week for the Democrats
Carlson didn’t pull any punches when it came to the Democrats’ chances. He painted a bleak picture for the left, saying it will be “pretty tough for them” to convince voters of a Kamala Harris victory. “It’s gonna be pretty hard for them to look at us and say, ‘You know what? Kamala Harris got 85 million votes because she’s just so impressive,’” he quipped, drawing laughter and cheers from the audience.
In true Carlson fashion, he couldn’t resist a jab at the media’s narratives surrounding the Democrats. He argued that the public has become “immune” to these tales, especially after “nine years of finding every single one of them totally false.” For Carlson, the reality is clear: Americans are waking up to the truth, and they’re tired of the spin.
Carlson’s Closing Message of Freedom
Carlson wrapped up with a message of hope, crediting Trump for giving Americans “the freedom to say what’s obviously true.” He called this newfound defiance a “liberation,” suggesting that the ability to speak honestly is a gift many Americans have rediscovered through Trump. As he left the stage, it was evident that Carlson’s words had left a mark on the crowd, who stood ready to bring that energy to the polls.
The night culminated with Trump himself, who delivered a rousing speech on his vision for America’s future. From economic revival to border security, he laid out the stakes, urging supporters to “get out and vote.” With Carlson’s endorsement ringing in their ears, the crowd left Madison Square Garden energized and ready to take on the final days before the election.
