'This is a leader of a nation': Tucker Carlson on Trump after the assassination attempt

Tucker Carlson spoke at the Republican National Convention, addressing Donald Trump and what the now GOP nominee did after he was shot, saying that when Trump put his fist up after getting shot, that he was made a leader of the nation.

"When [Trump] stood up after being shot in the face, bloodied, and put his hand up, I though at that moment, this was a transformation," Carlson said in the RNC speech. "He was no longer just a political party’s nominee. This was the leader of a nation."

Carlson said that the president and other titles doesn't automatically make you a leader. Carlson said that being a leader is a very different thing than something like being the nominee of a political party, saying that it is not a "title" but something that is "organic."
