Carlson made the remarks during an episode of The Tucker Carlson Show this week after his guest, Shawn Ryan, a former Navy Seal said he was “losing hope” with the administration, adding it needed “a lot of work.”

“I see all these negotiations going on in the Middle East and then, I don’t know when these buildings were approved or when these deals got done, but then I also see like, oh, there’s a brand new hotel going up in Dubai or Abu Dhabi, and another one going up in Doha,” Ryan told Carlson. “I’m like, did these just get done also with the deals that just happened over there, or was this earlier? You would probably know.”

Ryan continued: “That stuff kind of worries me.”

“Well it seems like corruption, yeah,” Carlson added.
