NextImg:Republican debate: Biden campaign dunks on Trump's Tucker Carlson interview

President Joe Biden's campaign preemptively trashed former President Donald Trump's sitdown with former Fox News personality Tucker Carlson before the first 2024 Republican primary debate.

Biden campaign spokesman Kevin Munoz dismissed the sit down as a "softball 'interview'" that underscores Trump's strategy of "running on the same extreme and deeply unpopular MAGA agenda the American people have rejected time and time again."

DEBATE: WITH FRONT-RUNNER TRUMP OUT, WILL GOP VOTERS TUNE IN?

"Instead of explaining his broken promises to Wisconsin and the 13,000 Foxconn manufacturing jobs that never were, we’ll likely hear him double down on his most out-of-touch positions, including his support for wild, debunked conspiracy theories and a national abortion ban," Munoz said Wednesday.

The Biden campaign issued the response hours before eight Republican presidential candidates debate each other for two hours without the race's front-runner, Trump.

"That same extreme and unpopular agenda will be on display in Milwaukee later tonight by MAGA Republican candidates doing their best impressions of Donald Trump," Munoz said. "The American people rejected these extreme ideas in 2018, 2020, and 2022 — and they will again in November 2024. "

Meanwhile, Trump's campaign declared the former president the debate winner, predicting he will dominate the Fox News-hosted event.

“You should also expect the Fox hosts to show an unnatural obsession with President Trump tonight, asking other Republican candidates over and over to react to President Trump’s policy positions," Trump campaign spokesman Chris LaCivita said.

“When the other candidates do get a chance to speak, they will be a faint echo, or maybe even a copycat, of President Trump’s Make America Great Again agenda," he added. "That’s because President Trump’s first four years in office were the most consequential — and led to the best economy — in American history.

Trump's sit down with Carlson will be broadcast on the X social media platform, starting five minutes before the debate.
