Carlson says Trump should be removed if he considers a nuclear first strike
Tucker Carlson said President Trump should be removed from office if he is considering first use of nuclear weapons, though Trump has not publicly said that he is.
Carlson made the conditional call in a conversation with Joe Kent, who left the National Counterterrorism Center over the war with Iran. Carlson argued that actively weighing a first nuclear strike should disqualify any president.
The Hill reported that Trump has not publicly said he is considering first use. Carlson and Kent discussed their concerns after a Pentagon official said policymakers were developing credible nuclear options for the president and defense secretary.
