Former Fox News host and current X host Tucker Carlson warned former President Donald Trump about recent comments regarding whether former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley would serve in his administration.

The former South Carolina governor, who is significantly trailing behind President Trump in national polls, has been touted as a potential running mate if she drops out of the race. The speculation only increased after President Trump declined to rule out the possibility of accepting Ms. Haley as his vice president.

In recent comments, the former commander-in-chief responded to a question about his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, telling Newsmax to “never say never” about Ms. Haley being considered as a running mate. The former president said that she would not likely become vice president.

“I’ve always gotten along with Nikki,” Mr. Trump said in the clip. “We have some things in common and some things we don’t have in common, and some of those things are very important.”

Mr. Carlson, however, said that he would oppose a Trump-Haley ticket during a recent interview with YouTuber and podcaster Tim Pool.

“I would not only not vote for that ticket, I would advocate against it as strongly as I could,” Mr. Carlson said, according to reports.

“That’s just poison,” Mr. Carlson added. He then criticized Ms. Haley as “not left, but … neoliberal in the darkest, most … nihilistic way” and added that she “has no real popular support.”
