Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy says that Tucker Carlson should enter the Republican primary.
“I think he’d be a good addition to the race,” Ramaswamy said in an interview with POLITICO, when asked whether he thinks the former Fox News host should mount his own presidential campaign. “I think someone should only do this if they feel called to do it, but I think it’d be good for the country if he got in, to be honest with you.”
He called Carlson “one of the smartest voices in the conservative movement,” and lauded Carlson’s willingness to “defect from party orthodoxy when necessary.”
“There’s definitely a thought leadership vacuum in political media, across the political spectrum. And Tucker was one of the great political thinkers and commentators of our time,” Ramaswamy said.
The 37-year-old biotech entrepreneur and author of “Woke Inc.” also recently squared off against fired CNN host Don Lemon.
So far, it’s unclear what Carlson’s next step will be but it’s unlikely to include a run for the White House in 2024.

Americans (the Conservative Voters): Hello. for 2024, President Trump could consider Tucker as well as Jason Chavetz as his VP Running Mate. Ya think ?
I’d like to see Tucker in the race. Very few people can out-debate him and he’s all about America, as is Ramaswamy. I never heard of Ramaswarmy before he decided to run, but I’ve been watching him and he’s very impressive. Him and Tucker as a team would be real interesting.
I was thinking the same thing, but his wife doesn’t like politics. He’s got x now, $, intelligence, honesty. He & Bobby could start their own party!
I would be comfortable with Tucker Carlson in the White House, although I don’t put much stock in rhetoric, I am only interested in results. PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, who by the way hasn’t yet learned when to keep his mouth shut, is the only president I can remember who had great results even against a hostile and corrupt congress and “Deep State”!
