GOP Field Braces for Tucker Carlson Iowa Inquisition

Philip Wegman, Real Clear Politics

Half a dozen candidates have entered the race for the Republican presidential nomination

since Carlson's Fox exit, and whether they like it or not, six White House hopefuls will sit down Friday with the opinionated commentator described by one GOP campaign official as a “fast-talking, new age populist.” One by one, Carlson will grill Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, Governor Nikki Haley, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, and Vivek Ramaswamy.
