Tucker Carlson Says Trump’s Cabinet Must Remove Him From Office Under 25th Amendment
Tucker Carlson said Trump ignored the risks of war with Iran and warned the conflict could shut down Middle East oil and gas.
- On Thursday, Tucker Carlson called for President Donald Trump to be removed from office under the 25th Amendment during an NPR interview, arguing Trump should have been ousted by his Cabinet the moment he threatened a nuclear attack.
- Though Carlson has long been a public supporter of Trump, he has become particularly critical of the president's handling of the war in Iran, alleging Trump threatened to eliminate the human race during a secret meeting in February.
- Carlson previously clashed with Trump over Ambassador Huckabee after she said it "would be fine" if Israel "took it all" regarding biblical land promises, which Carlson characterized as "a diplomatic incident."
- Days later, on April 9, Trump wrote on Truth Social that Carlson and other critics were "stupid people" who want Iran to have a nuclear weapon, dismissing concerns from his former ally.
- The 25th Amendment gives the Cabinet secretaries power to forcibly remove a president who cannot fulfill duties or acts in direct violation of them, though Carlson acknowledged that "they'll get him on corruption or whatever" instead.
