Tucker Carlson stunned a crowd in Las Vegas this week when he made a stunning prediction about the 2024 elections.
Carlson spoke at the Risk On 360! Global Success Conference where he discussed his views on current political and cultural issues less than a year before early voting in the 2024 elections begins.
The former Fox News star started off by saying everyone he knows and has spoken to recently is “angry and paranoid,” but added they are not prone to conspiracy theories and are just normal people who are concerned about what they are seeing around the country.
“I flew out here across the country this morning and spent five hours texting people … and I gotta tell you, every single person I texted, with the exception of my wife — who’s not on the internet at all — was angry and paranoid,” Carlson said.
“Seriously, and these are not crazy people. These are normal good people with like kids and stuff. With a vested interest in Americans’ success. These are not the burn-it-down caucus. These are the, you know, these are the people you want voting,” he added.
Carlson continued to express that, based on his “assessment” of their perspectives, he believes their feelings are entirely justified. He pointed out that the growing tension within America is likely to spill over into the next year as the U.S. approaches an intense election season.
“And I have to say after assessing their views for five hours, I think they were justified in both. They had every reason to be angry and all the evidence required to become paranoid,” Carlson continued. “I’m just telling you once again, what you already know, which is this is going to be — the next year is going to be, I think I’d bet my house on it, really like nothing we’ve ever seen in the country. And everyone can kind of feel that. You know, most of our perceptions come through intuition rather than reason.”
“But if you’re close to your dog, you know, the dog knows exactly what’s going on … they just watch and they feel. And people are very much the same. And if something bad is about to happen, everybody gets jumpy. And everybody’s really jumpy right now,” Carlson stated.

The ‘X’ platform host also provided some “suggestions” for the upcoming months, putting an emphasis on the importance of staying up-to-date about political developments. Carlson called attention to President Joe Biden’s mental state and underscored the indictments against former President Donald Trump. Additionally, Carlson highlighted America’s divisive social issues.
“Your gut is the one thing that doesn’t lie to you. Your gut only has your interest in mind. It is not trying to sell you a product, or convince you to vote for it,” he said.
“If you feel like you’re being lied to, you’re 100 percent right — you are being lied to. And if you feel like something very intense in history is about to happen, don’t ignore it. Don’t panic. There’s not profit in that, you can’t control it — you’re not in charge of history,” Carlson added, highlighting that there is “similar volatility” in politics happening across the world, most especially throughout the West.
“You’ve got two people running for president — one of them is literally senile,” Carlson added, adding that he thinks Biden is “not running” the show at the White House. “Yet he’s standing for reelection at the age of 80.”
Carlson then shifted to Trump’s pending court cases: “Every time he gets indicted and every time they tack years onto this potential sentence, he becomes more popular — and now he’s winning.”
“Nothing that is happening now or that has happened for the last five or six years can be explained through conventional political terms,” he said.
