A Stunned Tucker Carlson Reacts to Matt Gaetz: ‘One of the Weirdest Interviews I’ve Ever Conducted’

By News Here - 19:08

Tucker Carlson told viewers on Tuesday night that his interview with Matt Gaetz was “one of the weirdest interviews I’ve ever conducted.”

Gaetz appeared with Carlson to talk about the DOJ investigation into him for, as the New York Times reported, “whether he had a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paid for her to travel with him.” Gaetz denied the allegations, said he’s being smeared and extorted, and claimed to Carlson his family went to the FBI. He even said his father wore a wire at the direction of the FBI.

Carlson seemed a bit taken aback during the interview, and he led the next segment with this comment to viewers:

“You just saw our Matt Gaetz interview. That was one of the weirdest interviews I’ve ever conducted. That story just appeared in the news a couple of hours ago, and on the certainty that there’s always more than you read in the newspaper, we immediately called Matt Gaetz and asked him to come on and tell us more. Which, as you saw, he did. I don’t think that clarified much, but it certainly showed this is a deeply interesting story and we’ll be following it.”

There was one point during the interview where Gaetz brought up a dinner he and Carlson had once that included a friend of his who was “threatened by the FBI.” Carlson said in response, “I don’t remember the woman you’re speaking of or the context at all, honestly.”
