'Winning candidate won't be there': Internet tells Jesse Watters they would watch Tucker Carlson and Trump interview rather than GOP debate

As Jesse Watters narrated the history of the debates ahead of the big moment, the internet users said they would rather watch Tucker Carlson's interview with Donald Trump

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: The first GOP debate ahead of the 2024 presidential race is set to begin in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on August 23, 2023 and Jesse Watters has taken over ‘Primetime’ to talk about how the Republican candidates need to distinguish themselves on stage.

As Watters reports about the debate for Fox News' ‘Primetime’, the internet is laser-focused on former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson and former President Donald Trump.

Carlson revealed on X, formerly known as Twitter, that a pre-recorded interview with Trump will air 5 minutes prior to the GOP debate.

By the looks of it, people would rather watch Carlson’s Twitter than the GOP debate on Fox News.

Jesse Watters talks about GOP debate on Fox News

Jesse Watters took over his Twitter to share his segment from ‘Primetime’ about the GOP debate. He wrote, “We’re less than an hour away from the first Republican debate in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.”

Watters also explained the very origin of debates that can be traced back to ancient Greece.

In his tweet, Watters wrote, “If Republican candidates want to distinguish themselves tonight, here’s what they need to do. The winning candidate must have a vision, has to put policy over cheap shots, has to have sharp elbows on stage, must eviscerate Bidenomics and remember that Republican voters are craving authenticity. Desperation will be in the air tonight- we’ll see who comes out on top.”

Viewers want to see Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson

In response to Jesse Watters’ tweet, the internet has primarily spoken about how they would much rather spend their time watching Tucker Carlson and Donald Trump on their screens than the GOP debate on Fox News.

One person indirectly mentioned Trump and tweeted, "The wining candidate from tonight’s debate already won and won’t even be there." Another said, "No one cares what Fox News has to say."

Some have even urged Watters to leave Fox News as they focused on Trump and Tucker Carlson. One user said, "Love you Jesse, will love you more when you leave FOX. I'll be watching Tucker at 8:55 sharp."

The internet has made it clear that they will be watching Trump and Carlson as one viewer wrote, "I’ll be watching Tucker interview DJT. The hell with Fox."

Another user tweeted, "Most of us will be watching Trump on Tucker, but I suppose the second string candidates need a place to squawk too."

The one question that is being asked by many in response to Watters' segment on 'Primetime' was, "Where can I find Carlson and Trymp interview?"
