Tucker Condemns Extremist Anti-Trump Rhetoric: ‘No Telling How Much Blood Will Flow’ By Alexander Watson for CNS News
During his introductory monologue on Thursday, FNC’s Tucker Carlson denounced the dangerous rhetoric coming out of left-wing media about the election, particularly comments made by retired Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher program earlier this year.
Similar to some of the poisonous rhetoric of today, Wilkerson casually discussed the U.S. military fighting against gun-toting Trump supporters and wondering “how much blood will flow,” if Trump refused to leave the White House.
“Democrats have been thinking about this for a long time, it turns out – none of the rest of us have, but they have,” Carlson said about the current election fiasco. “This summer, John Podesta played Joe Biden in an election simulation that Democrats held. In that simulation, according to reports, Podesta ‘wanted to see what the military would do if Donald Trump refused to accept the election results.’”

Carlson then played a clip of Wilkerson commenting on that scenario to Bill Maher, “If Trump calls his base to the streets with their guns, his base owns something like 60 to 70 percent of three-hundred, four-hundred million guns in America. If they answer that call and come to the streets with guns, then we probably are going to have a need for the military, and then all bets are off as to how much blood might flow.”
“The military?” said Carlson. “So what exactly would the military do? It’s shocking even to think about something like that.”
“Keep in mind that Wilkerson is not a fringe figure. He’s not some guy muttering to himself on a city bus,” Carlson stated. “Wilkerson was once chief of staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell, look him up, he is a famous man.”
