In a new interview that was released this week, Tucker Carlson asked Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance about the potential actions of the left and the deep state in the event that he and Donald Trump win the 2024 presidential election.
Carlson went on to float the possibility of a military coup to prevent Trump from taking power.
Carlson inquired of the Ohio senator whether he believed that “they will accept that” after Vance predicted that he and Trump would win this November.
“Well, yeah, it’s a good question, right?” There’s only so much they can do.” Vance said
“They’ve already sort of marshaled the ballot harvesting operation, which, of course, is the story of 2020. It’s not like, you know, it’s not ballot machines were hacked into. The story of 2020 is that they really, you know, turned on this ballot harvesting machine and they used, of course, Big Tech to silence stories that were negative about Joe Biden. They’re certainly going to do that again. I just don’t see any evidence that these people are like controlling the puppet strings and they’re going to do everything that they can. They are going to do everything that they can, but it’s not that much. So right now, yeah, I think Donald Trump’s going to be the next president.” he added.
“And if he gets elected president. once again, do you think they will accept that? Are you concerned? They’ve spent the last ten years taking full control of the U.S. military-” Carlson asked.
“Yeah,” Vance said in agreement.
No one in Washington seems to know how much we’re spending on illegal aliens. JD Vance plans to find out.

“Which is, I mean I’m sorry to even talk like that, but they think that way so it’s worth saying it,” Carlson concluded.
“So that’s what worries me. So you hear all this talk about threats to democracy, right? And the biggest threat to democracy in this country is not like Donald Trump using legal maneuvers to challenge the 2020 election. The biggest threat to democracy is that the bureaucracy in Washington, D.C. is fundamentally misaligned with at least half the country, right?” Vance replied.
“So what I worry less about is like, ‘Are they going to let Trump win?’ Well, it’s not going to be easy, but I actually do sitting here right now, Maybe I’m wrong, but I do feel very confident that Trump’s going to be elected president, that he will be president. I think the real fight is going to be when he becomes president and he tries to do things. They’re going to take him down and try to take him down in a very big way.” he concluded.
