Donald Trump's bizarre 'pick' for VP gets Marjorie Taylor Greene's backing, Internet calls it 'comedy gold'

Marjorie Taylor Greene asserted that Tucker Carlson is the optimal choice as Vice President for Donald Trump

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Former President Donald Trump made an appearance on ‘The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show,’ where he briefly spoke about former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson.

During the interview, when questioned about the possibility of considering Carlson, Trump responded, "I like Tucker a lot, I guess I would.” Trump further praised the former Fox News anchor, who now hosts his own show on X (formerly Twitter), stating that he possesses excellent common sense.

Several individuals on social media have expressed their concurrence with this sentiment, with Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene being among them. She has consistently shown her support for the former President.

However, it's worth noting that the reaction to Greene's endorsement was predominantly unfavorable, drawing widespread criticism.

Marjorie Taylor Greene backs Tucker Carlson

On the X platform, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene shared a comprehensive analysis of Donald Trump's openness to having Tucker Carlson as a running mate.

The analysis was conducted by Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist and radio show host, in response to Trump's interview on 'The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show.'

Kirk analyzed on X, “Donald Trump says he's open to Tucker Carlson as a 2024 running mate. At first, it sounds a little loopy. But upon further thought...Besides Trump himself, nobody enjoys the base's trust the way Tucker Carlson does. Nobody else intuitively understands their values, their priorities, or their worries the way they do.”

“No other VP contender is as battle-tested as Tucker. Like Trump, he thrives under attack and under pressure. He's been targeted and smeared endlessly for seven years, but he's never cracked, never had a breakdown. He's only become more popular. Despite years of digging, his personal life is spotless,” added Kirk.

As Kirk continued his analysis, he concluded by saying, “This isn't some flight of fancy. Trump/Tucker is a great idea.”

In response to this, Rep Greene wrote, “I agree with you, Charlie. There’s no one better than Tucker Carlson!!”

Internet rushes to disagree with Marjorie Taylor Greene

After Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene expressed her agreement with Charlie Kirk and applauded Tucker Carlson, the general sentiment on the internet appeared to differ from the representative's stance.

The online response to Greene's views did not align with her perspective.

One user wrote, “Actually there are about 150 million Americans that are MUCH better than Tucker... and you are not one of them.” Another simply wrote, “No.”

“There are actually many people better than Tucker Carlson...” wrote one user.

One more user said, “Ahahaha this is some comedy gold.  You say some funny stuff but this takes the cake.”

Some even asked if this was a “joke” as one user wrote, “This is a joke, right?” Another expressed themselves using emojis, “🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.”
