Tucker Carlson asked Asa Hutchinson today about his veto of a bill that would have prevented transgender surgeries and hormone treatment to minors. More specifically, he wanted to know if Hutchinson had any change of heart since his veto.

Here’s the entire exchange:

Here’s what the poster said since it was truncated:

NEW: Tucker Carlson calls out RINO Republican presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson to his face for supporting gender transitioning children. Tucker is putting everyone on blast ????

“These are children who are being altered permanently and you can defend that change if you’d like, but there is no debate about whether or not it’s permanent.”

“You said that children should be able to choose their gender and their parents should be able to affirm that and the state has no role in getting involved… You’re saying that a child shouldn’t be able to choose a bathroom but can choose his sex?”

How many conservative journalists do you know have the balls to call out RINOs to their faces? Very few. Tucker 2.0 is awesome.

I’ve got two thoughts about what Hutchinson was saying. The first is that he sounds a bit like Joe Biden on abortion, in which Biden claims to be personally against it yet he doesn’t want to impose his beliefs on everyone else. In this case Hutchinson seems to be okay with transgenderism for minors as long as parents are ‘guiding’ their child in changing their gender and taxpayers don’t pay for it.

Secondly, it’s a really bad look for Hutchinson to get so frustrated with Tucker just for asking about this. And then at the very end of his interview he’s got the audacity to ask for donations. If this doesn’t end his campaign I don’t know what will.
