Fans praised the ousted conservative pundit for “keeping the dream alive” and predicted an ascent to the White House in response to the two-minute video.
Conservative pundit Tucker Carlson’s first video since his unexpected ousting from Fox News has gone viral, garnering praise from fans who were eagerly awaiting his return.
A short period of silence from Carlson that followed the announcement was broken on Wednesday, when the former Fox News stalwart posted an approximately two-minute video to his Twitter account.
While the video did not feature Carlson directly speaking about the circumstances of his exit from cable, he did say that issues “that will define our future” are not allowed to be debated “in American media.” He signed off by telling viewers “see you soon.”
Within hours of the video being posted, it had racked up over 7.5 million views. Prominent conservatives and Carlson fans erupted with praise for the pundit.
“I agree completely,” Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia tweeted while sharing Carlson’s video.
