Conservative media personality Tucker Carlson warned voters that the 2024 election is going to be “like nothing we’ve ever seen.”
The former Fox News host made the declaration while speaking at the Risk On 360! Global Success Conference in Las Vegas and touched on the anger and paranoia overtaking making Americans, according to a report.

“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 people you want voting,” Carlson said.
The feelings of anger and paranoia are entirely justified, said Carlson, who offered an assessment of the views and onions he encountered on his journey.
There is growing tension in the United States that is bound to push past its limits within the coming election cycle, he said.
“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,” Carlson said. “And everyone can kind of feel that. You know, most of our perceptions come through intuition rather than reason.
“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,” he continued.
To live through and cope with the coming political quagmire, Americans must be wary of the politics that surround them and be ready to question a wide variety of problems, including President Joe Biden’s mental state and the charges against former President Donald Trump, Carlson argued.
“Your gut is the one thing that doesn’t lie to you,” he said. “Your gut only has your interest in mind. It is not trying to sell you a product, or convince you to vote for it.
“You’ve got two people people running for president — one of them is literally senile,” he added. “Yet, he’s standing for reelection at the age of 80.”

Carlson also touched on the criminal investigations into Trump.
“Every time he gets indicted and every time they tack years onto this potential sentence, he becomes more popular — and now he’s winning,” Carlson said. “Nothing that is happening now or that has happened for the last five or six years can be explained through conventional political terms.”
