2004 Is A No
And when it comes to the 2004 election, Carlson did not vote. Why? Because he was disgusted with the Iraq War and also the small-government Republican Party. He was bold enough to say, “I don’t know what you consider conservative, but I’m not much of a liberal, at least as the word is currently defined. For instance, I’m utterly opposed to abortion, which I think is horrible and cruel. I think affirmative action is wrong. I’d like to slow immigration pretty dramatically. I hate all nanny state regulations, such as seat belt laws and smoking bans. I’m not for big government. I think the U.S. ought to hesitate before intervening abroad. I think these are conservative impulses. So by my criteria, Bush isn’t much of a conservative.”
Immigration Status
Immigration is a hot button issue in American right now. And Tucker Carlson has been heavily criticized for demonizing legal and undocumented immigrants. The Washington Post and Huffington Post are just a few publications who have called him out on those views. Carlson seems to just brush it all off as he continues to express himself freely.
