Glenn REACTS to Mike Pence, Asa Hutchinson TORCHING their 2024 campaigns in Tucker Carlson interviews
Two presidential campaigns went down in flames at the 2023 FAMiLY Leadership Summit broadcasted by Blaze Media while others seemed to take off.
Former governor of Arkansas, Asa Hutchinson, was one of them.
In an interview on stage with Tucker Carlson, Hutchinson appeared to suggest that protecting children from trans medical “treatments” is not a big issue.
“Is it treatment to prevent him from going through the natural process of adolescence? How is that treatment? It seems not like treatment, it seems like something else,” Carlson was recorded asking Hutchinson regarding children who want to transition.
“Tucker, I hope that we’ll be able to talk about some issues —” Hutchinson said in response, before Carlson cut him off.
“This is one of the biggest issues in the country and I think every person in this room would agree that it is a central issue because these are children who are being altered permanently, and you can defend that alteration, that change if you like, but there’s really no debate about whether or not it’s permanent,” Carlson quipped back.
Mike Pence was another candidate who seemed to have torpedoed his campaign.
Carlson asked Pence why he is more concerned about providing tanks and funding to Ukraine than he is a degrading economy and sky rocketing suicide and crime rates in the United States.
“Well, it’s not my concern,” Pence responded, adding that “anybody that says we can’t be the leader of the Free World and solve our problems at home has a pretty small view of the greatest nation on Earth. We can do both.”
After that, Stu Burguiere, Pat Gray, and Glenn Beck don’t see much hope for Pence or Hutchinson’s campaigns.
“It was a really bad political soundbite,” Stu says of Pence.
“He also was booed,” Glenn adds.
However, there were standing ovations for Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy.
Glenn believes Ramaswamy is “surprising everyone who watches him.”
“I love him,” Gray adds, “I haven’t heard a single viewpoint of his that I disagree with yet.”

Glenn REACTS to Tucker Carlson’s ANNIHILATION of Asa Hutchinson — 'I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like that'
Glenn Beck likens Tucker Carlson’s interview with Republican presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson to the Hindenburg disaster of 1937.
That’s how badly it went for Asa.
“At one point in America,” Glenn says, “hundreds and hundreds of people ... looked up into the sky” anticipating the successful descent of the gargantuan airship, but “29 seconds later, the entire Hindenburg was on the ground” in flames.
“I think that’s maybe what we saw today,” he chuckles in reference to Hutchinson’s interview that also crashed and burned in a matter of seconds.
“I don’t think I have ever seen anything burst into flames and die that fast,” Glenn tells "Fearless with Jason Whitlock" contributor Delano Squires.
Delano agrees and praises Tucker for getting straight to the question everyone wanted to know: Why did Hutchinson veto the Arkansas bill that banned gender-affirming care, including puberty blockers and cross-sex hormone therapy? Especially when he preaches against teaching transgenderism in schools and claims to believe that God created only two sexes.
Asa’s response to Tucker’s question was so poor that it may just tank his entire campaign.
“[Hutchinson] was saying, ‘Well, it’s the parents’ right to choose,”’ Glenn mocks, adding, “No! ... We don’t let Muslims come into the country and mutilate their children. That doesn’t make any sense at all.”
Stu agrees, calling Asa’s answer “sub-optimal.”
“He just doesn’t want to be involved in the culture wars,” Stu continues, but “culture war ... [are] what voters care about.”
If Asa’s pathetic response regarding sex transition for minors wasn’t enough to sabotage his interview, his comments about the border crisis were the final nail in the coffin.

4 times Tucker Carlson said what we were ALL THINKING at the FAMiLY Leadership Summit
By Glenn Beck’s own admission, Tucker Carlson and he haven’t always been the best of friends.
However, there is something special about Tucker — and Beck knows it.
“God is using him. He has moved on him greatly. Please, add Tucker to your prayers,” Beck says, adding, “something really good is going to come out of what Tucker is doing.”
The founder of Blaze Media recently sat down with Tucker for the first time since he was ousted from Fox News, and he was impressed, to say the least.
In their one-on-one interview at the FAMiLY Leadership Summit, Beck recalled Tucker completely surprising him multiple times.
“You said something that I absolutely believe, and it is crazy to say it now, I think we absolutely blew up the Nord Stream pipeline,” Beck said.
“Of course we did,” Tucker replied.
“It’s a big deal, I mean on many levels. It was an environmental catastrophe,” Tucker added. He also believed it was “an act of vandalism,” an “attack on infrastructure,” and “an attack on our closest NATO ally, Germany, which used that pipeline to fund its entire manufacturing center.”
“We just attacked our ally,” he continued.
Beck also discussed the media’s attack on the truth with Tucker, who believes that the only time anyone becomes outraged at what someone reports on is when they're reporting the truth.
“When you say something true — that’s actually true, really true — people become hysterical and call for your murder and certainly call for your de-platforming,” Tucker said.
He also believes that while politicians are charming and many of them are quite likable, many of them, even Republicans, are incapable of answering questions.
“You’re trying to run the country and you’re mad that I’m, like, trying to get you to be more precise about your answers that you should have memorized already.”
