WATCH: Tucker Carlson Gets Standing Ovation At RNC, Says ‘God Is Among Us’

Top-rated conservative journalist Tucker Carlson received a standing ovation when he spoke on the final night of the 2024 Republican National Convention on Thursday.

Carlson began with a shoutout to former Trump advisor Peter Navarro, who addressed the convention on Wednesday after he was released from a four-month stint in federal prison for refusing to comply with the January 6 Committee, which defied congressional rules by refusing to allow House Republicans to appoint representatives.

He then provided a somber but hopeful take on the assassination attempt on former President Trump, which left retired firefighter Corey Comperatore, a father of two, dead after he was hit while shielding his family from gunfire. Two additional innocent rally goers were critically injured in the attack.

“So I watched I watched a video of what happened in Butler Pennsylvania about 1550 times. I think I was one of about 8 billion people around the world who watched it. And the more I watched it the more it that everything was different. After that moment everything, this convention is different,” Carlson said. “The nation is different, the world is different, Donald Trump is different.”

“When he stood up after being shot in the face, bloodied, and put his hand up. I thought at that moment that was a transformation this was no longer a man. Well, I think that I think it was divine intervention but the effect that it had on Donald Trump, he was no longer just a political party’s nominee, or a former president, or a future president. This was the leader of a nation. And I think there’s a difference.”

After a jab at President Biden’s highly questionable election, Carlson went on to describe former President Trump as the most caring politician he has met after a lifetime of covering Washington D.C.

“His courage gave them heart. A leader’s courage gives courage to his people period. And the second thing I noticed which I don’t think anyone has remarked upon in public but I’m just going to since I’m on the script like why not. Is that he turned down the most obvious opportunity in politics to inflame the nation after being shot,” Carlson told the crowd.

“To inflame the nation, which is an opportunity that almost every other politician I’ve ever met and certainly his opponents would have taken instantly. And they would have said, well, what is this? How did he get shot? Like, how did this happen? And those are real questions that we have to get to the bottom of. But in the moments, the days, the week after the shooting, he did not say that. He did his best to bring the country together.”

In reference to the mainstream media and Democrat Party’s coverage of the former president, Carlson remarked, “this is the divisive figure, this is the irresponsible person?”

“No. This is the most responsible unifying behavior of a leader I think I’ve ever seen.”

Carlson concluded his remarks by stating that “God is among us right now.
