Tucker Carlson is working overtime trying to discredit Nikki Haley ahead of the New Hampshire primary.
In his latest video on X, Carlson ridiculed pundits reacting to Trump's victory in the Iowa caucuses.
However, RedState noted that the former Fox News host proceeded to issue a warning to his followers:
But he warned that Haley might do better in New Hampshire, that she had been spending far more money than Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis there. She also has the support of N.H. Gov. Chris Sununu. He said a lot of Haley's money came from “committed Democratic partisans.” She's gotten money from people like Democratic megadonor Reid Hoffman, who has been a supporter of Joe Biden, a friend of Jeffrey Epstein, and the guy who funded the E. Jean Carroll lawsuit. He's also been a donor to American Bridge.
Carlson said that Haley wasn't a conservative and he walked through the reasons why. He pointed to her Aspen Institute comments, which he said indicated that she was weak in dealing with the illegal alien crisis. He also didn't think she had a conservative reaction to the BLM riots. He also hit her on spending for Ukraine and her position on climate change as well. Perhaps most of all, Carlson was disturbed by her position that people should register to be on social media which he hit as not a conservative position.
Tucker noted that because of New Hampshire's open primary system, Democrats could help elect the “Republican” nominee. If she wins New Hampshire, he thinks she may get the non-Trump donors to abandon DeSantis and swing to her. Then if something happens to Trump, such as if he's taken out by the legal conflagration, you end up with Haley.
The crossover strategy to stop Trump has received the endorsement of some prominent Democrats, including ex-Obama advisor David Plouffe.
