Tucker Carlson to Host 2024 Republican Presidential Forum Without Trump

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson will host a forum in Des Moines, Iowa on Friday with several 2024 Republican presidential candidates, including Ron DeSantis, Mike Pence, Tim Scott, Vivek Ramaswamy, Nikki Haley, and Asa Hutchinson. However, former President Donald Trump has declined to participate in the event. This comes ahead of the first Republican National Committee debate in August, where Trump has not confirmed his attendance. Trump will appear at the Turning Point Action conference in Florida, but will not have a one-on-one conversation with Carlson.
