Tucker Carlson interviews "Unknown 8430," a provocateur hinting at a 2024 presidential run to "re-scramble" the election, mocking progressive policies like gun control and media narratives while defending free speech. They dismiss legacy outlets as obsolete, claim Netflix exploited them before dropping them, and endorse Trump, Haley, and Ramaswamy—positioning themselves as a chaotic alternative. The darkly comedic exchange ends with a VP tease, blending performance art with political defiance. [Automatically generated summary]
2024 has not even begun yet, and it does seem like the presidential race is effectively frozen in place, if not over.
We know who the candidates are.
It's too late for another to get in.
Some have already dropped out.
But is it too late?
Is there anyone in this country with 350 million people who could jump in at this late date and re-scramble the calculus of electoral politics?
Well, there may be someone.
And in fact, you already know him.
You know his face.
And the question is, Will he get in this cycle?
And that's my question for you.
unidentified
Well, that's really a decision for the people, Tucker.
It's not something that I really think about or want to do.
And Merry Christmas to you, too.
But I've always believed that nothing should be off the table in life or in art.
I think we could both agree that we need to get some adults back in the room, so if that means taking on the chief executive role, well, that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make for this great nation.
Well, this country is mired in so much contradiction and confusion, we don't even know how we can help anyone anymore, because we can't agree who needs help.
I mean, what doesn't come with a trigger warning these days?
I mean, Tucker, we are far too close to having a beanbag chair in the Oval Office.
We coddle to everybody.
Okay, you think you're a rabbit, that's fine.
But let me tell you something.
You sure as hell aren't going to see someone walking through my White House in bunny ears and a tail, unless it's Easter.
You know, Tucker, I think it's just good enough to sip some eggnog and decorate the tree and listen to White Christmas and embrace all the things that make this such a special day.
The truth is, I love nothing better on this day than to do a line of blow, drink a whiskey and coke, hit a reindeer with my car, and wish you all the naughtiest Christmas ever.
So that doesn't mean that you're gone, though, from Netflix.
I don't even know if you're aware of this, but every time a person pulls up the Netflix app, you're there in some way.
Have you seen this?
unidentified
Yes, you know what that is.
Boom, boom.
So it is bizarre that they decided to publicly cut ties with me on allegations alone, allegations that have now been proven false, because I don't think there's any question.
Netflix exists because of me.
I put them on the map and they tried to put me in the ground.
