Donald Trump warns US may be heading towards civil war and ‘open conflict’

Tonight’s interview with ex-Fox News host Carlson comes hours before Trump is set to surrender to cops over racketeering and conspiracy charges at 7pm on Thursday – enabling cable news to capture live footage

Donald Trump warned the US could be heading towards civil war and possible “open conflict” as he spoke to ex-Fox News host Tucker Carlson hours before his expected surrender to police.

The former president was questioned on whether he thought civil war loomed amid growing political tensions, prompting a rambling response from Trump about the “love and unity” amongst a crowd during his speech prompting the January 6 Capitol Hill riots – which saw an angry mob storm the government building.

Trump had urged the crowd to action their patriotism claiming the election had been “stolen by emboldened radical-left Democrats”. In Wednesday’s interview aired on Carlson X (formerly Twitter) page, the Carlson asks: “Do you think we’re moving towards civil war?”. Trump then replies “There’s tremendous passion and there’s tremendous love – January 6 was a very interesting day, but they don’t report it properly. It was the largest crowd I have ever spoken before.

“People in that crowd – a very very small group of people went down there [the Capitol building] and there were a lot of scenarios you can talk about. People in that crowd said it was the most beautiful day they ever experienced. There was love and unity. I have never seen such spirit and such passion and such love and I’ve also never seen simultaneously and from the same people such hatred for what they’ve done our country.”
