She accused the journalist of being gullible, suggesting that Russian media mocks him and views him as someone who can be easily manipulated.
Clinton further criticized Carlson for spreading misinformation aligned with Putin's narrative about Ukraine, calling him out for his inability to align his reporting with the truth.
She chided the former Fox News host could potentially secure a contract with a Russian media outlet "after having been fired from so many outlets and the United States."
Hillary Clinton is gobsmackingly terrified of those who 'yearn' for leaders like Vladimir Putin
Further expressing her concern, Clinton highlighted, "It’s really quite sad that not just somebody like Tucker Carlson who has, as I said, been fired so many times because he seems unable to correlate his reporting with the truth, but also because it is a sign that there are people in this country right now who are like a fifth column from Vladimir Putin."
The former secretary of state went on to state, "There is a yearning for leaders who can kill and imprison their opponents, destroy the press, lead a life that is one of impunity and bound by any laws."
She added, "There’s a yearning among certain people in our country for that kind of leadership. And I find that absolutely gobsmacking terrifying."
