So almost exactly five months ago, the Republican presidential candidate is shot in the face on camera. The man who apparently did it is killed. The world stops. History changes. But the one thing that doesn't happen is any accounting of what that was. Who was this guy? How did this happen? And even now, on the cusp of Trump's inauguration, it's disappeared. I haven't heard anybody ask those questions. I've heard some dark mutterings. And so you're one of the people I think was on the story at the very beginning in a rational but insistent way. And so I thought it'd be worth asking, like, what was that?
Yeah, I'm not sure I've ever seen an incident of that magnitude disappear from the news so quickly. Yes. We got what, maybe a week of like true kind of flood the zone coverage? Yes. And then it was gone.
Welcome to the Tucker Carlson Show. We bring you stories that have not been showcased anywhere else. And they're not censored, of course, because we're not gatekeepers. We are honest brokers here to tell you what we think you need to know and do it honestly. Check out all of our content at TuckerCarlson.com. Here's the episode. That to me is the weirdest thing about it. But it was a shooting. It was an assassination attempt. And it raised like the most pressing possible questions about a lot of different things. And, you know, I understand the news media didn't want to give Trump any advantage, didn't want to run the picture of him triumphant. I get it. But you would think that every elected official, every American would want to know how did – how was this allowed to happen?
It was allowed to happen, but by whom and why and how? Yeah. And I don't hear anybody, including Republicans, asking those questions. So like, what is this?
Yeah, so I kind of look at it as three big questions. Who is the shooter? Yes. Everything that kind of puts him together. How did they let it happen? That whole process. And then what happened to everyone who let it happen? And then within that, like the framework I have trying to figure out, you know, what exactly happened is you can look at it as like option one, just a total snafu across the board. Everyone failed, accidents happen, guy manages to get up there. It's exactly what it looks like. So that's option one. And then you've got option two, which is kind of what I would call strategic incompetence. So you have DHS, which runs Secret Service, and the Secret Service is a soup sandwich from top to bottom. Like, it's a disaster. Culturally, everything about it. Did you have people who were making that even more difficult, who were deliberately making Trump vulnerable?
on the off chance that maybe someone would go solve their problems for them so that that's my number two my number three kind of scenario is it encompasses all a number two but you kind of have two different hands of government you've got the secret service hand which is just totally incompetent uh making them completely vulnerable and But unbeknownst to that hand, you have this other hand, like I would call it like the Russiagate hoax hand. These people who are just always doing awful, evil things. The John Brennan hand. Yeah. Was there somebody there looking for super disturbed, impressionable young men to kind of poke with the stick? Like, you know, Trump, Trumpson Butler, you should go check that out.
So you have the incompetent hand and then the devious hand. So that to me is option three. And they weren't working with each other, but they were creating the conditions to allow what happened to happen. And then I think the fourth one is the government just killed him. I kind of look at everything through those lenses and try to figure out, can we disprove this one? What fits here? And where I am now, I'm kind of between two and three. I refuse to believe this was just a series of unfortunate accidents and incompetence that's put together. It's just not. I just don't believe it. Because I've been alive for the last 10 years watching everything they do. And yet, I don't think there's evidence for the JFK style. We all know Lee Harvey Oswald didn't do it, right? Of course.
