Tucker Carlson asked President Donald Trump whether he believes the late sex trafficker, Jeffrey Epstein, killed himself in the Metropolitan Correctional Center, New York, in 2019.
The explosive interview coincided with the first GOP presidential debate in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and demolished Fox News in terms of viewership.
Tucker asked Trump a number of excellent questions, which the media would have never dared to ask.
Some of the questions included:
Whatever happened to Mike Pence? He’s out there attacking you. What is that?
Do you think we’re moving towards civil war?
It started with protests against you, and then it moved to impeachment twice and now indictment. Are you worried that they’re gonna try and kill you? Why wouldn’t they try and kill you, honestly?
You’re saying they stole it from you last time. Why wouldn’t they do the same this time?
Do you think Epstein killed himself sincerely?
However, the last question Carlson asked Trump regarding Jeffrey Epstein is the one that has got everyone talking.
Before Tucker asks the question, he clarifies that he believes Epstein was murdered and that former Attorney General Bill Barr lied about the sex trafficker’s death.
But Trump’s response may surprise people.
Watch
Trump first responds by slamming Barr for doing nothing about the 2020 election “fraud” before Tucker asks if it is possible Epstein was killed.
Trump then finally reveals his answer:
“Oh, sure, possible. But I think he probably committed suicide. He had a life with beautiful homes, beautiful everything. All of a sudden, he is incarcerated and not doing very well,” Trump said.
“I would say he probably did (commit suicide), but a lot of people think he was killed, including you,” Trump concluded.
Tucker then responds with, “He was killed.”
Tucker and Trump do agree d that Barr handled the investigation as poorly as possible.
