James Fishback Appears on Tucker Carlson Show: "All Winning Republicans Will Talk Like This"
James Fishback appeared on the Tucker Carlson Show to discuss his campaign for Florida Governor and his America First policy platform in what has become one of the most talked-about political interviews of the year. During the wide-ranging interview, Fishback outlined his plans to: • Eliminate property taxes on homestead properties • Implement a complete immigration moratorium • Fire all H-1B visa holders from state government on Day One • Refuse all AIPAC donations • Divest $385 million from Israel Bonds to fund Florida housing assistance Tucker Carlson praised the interview, saying: "Pretty soon, all winning Republican politicians will talk like this." Fishback's appearance marked a significant moment in his insurgent campaign against frontrunner Byron Donalds, demonstrating his willingness to challenge Republican orthodoxy on foreign policy while maintaining a strong conservative stance on domestic issues. "I'm not running to be Israel's governor," Fishback told Carlson. "I'm running to be Florida's governor. My job is here at home." The interview has since gone viral, with clips garnering millions of views across social media platforms. Watch the full interview at tuckercarlson.com/tucker-show-james-fishback
