'I mean, it's just a propaganda, 45-minute softball for Trump,' Shapiro said on Thursday.
During his show on Thursday, Shapiro went on to criticize Carlson, saying that he"has principles" but failed to display them during the interview with Trump.
"This would've been a great opportunity for him to ask the former president and leading Republican candidate about some of those principles. He didn't do any of it. Instead, he sort of, I mean—how soft were the softballs that Tucker was throwing to Donald Trump?" Shapiro said."He asked Donald Trump to rip on Mike Pence by suggesting that Donald Trump had always been very nice to Mike Pence. This question is so bizarre, like, I don't even know what to say about this.
Shapiro continued,"I mean, it's just a propaganda, 45-minute softball for Trump. That's all that is. I mean, just, realistically speaking. Now, you may love it. Maybe that's your bag, but that's what it is."
