REVEALED: Tucker Carlson Called Trump ‘A Demonic Force’ In Aftermath Of January 6 Capitol Insurrection

Even though he remains a constant apologist for disgraced former president Donald Trump, Fox News host Tucker Carlson slammed Trump as a “demonic force” and “a destroyer” in a text to one his producers after thousands of pro-Trump supporters attacked the Capitol on January 6, 2021, according to just released court documents.

HuffPost notes that Carlson also insisted that Trump wouldn’t destroy Fox.

“But he’s not going to destroy us,” Carlson added in the text, revealed in a court filing Thursday that lays out how Fox News knowingly spread election lies.

Despite his disgust with the disgraced ex-president, in the days after Jan. 6, Carlson continued to press forward with unsubstantiated claims that the 2020 election had been stolen from Trump via rigged voting machines and other means of manipulating ballots.

Carlson’s critical remarks are part of a massive $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit filed by Dominion Voting Systems, and court filings show that many Fox hosts and executives had serious doubts the election had been rigged against the one-term, twice-impeached former president.

In another text sent to his fellow primetime host Laura Ingraham in November of 2020, Carlson ripped into Trump attorney Sidney Powell:

“Sidney Powell is lying by the way. It’s insane.”

And after Fox officially called the state of Arizona for President Joe Biden, Carlson ominously declared, “(Trump) could easily destroy us if we play it wrong.”

At the same time he was sending those texts, Carlson was also reportedly trying to get colleagues who dared to doubt Trump supporters such as Powell and Rudy Giuliani fired from the network.

“Please get her fired,” Carlson texted host Sean Hannity, according to the document. “Seriously….What the fuck? I’m actually shocked…It needs to stop immediately, like tonight. It’s measurably hurting the company. The stock price is down. Not a joke.”

Another thing that isn’t a joke: The very real possibility that Fox is facing bankruptcy if found guilty of defaming Dominion and Smartmatic, both of which have multibillion dollar suits against the network going to trial this year.

We can always hope that by this time next year Fox will be little more than a bad memory and that Carlson, Hannity, and Ingraham will all be unemployed.
