Former President Donald Trump has reacted to a potential idea of a sit-down interview with former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson, calling it an "interesting" idea.
Trump made the comment on his social media platform, Truth Social, reposting another user's idea of doing the interview on the same night the Republican party holds its 2024 primary debate.

It's unclear if Trump will attend the debate, as he has stated in the past he does not believe he needs to while he maintains a large polling lead.
"Interesting?" Trump wrote. "So many people have suggested this!"
Trump's comment comes just a month before the first Republican party primary debate on Aug. 23 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which will be hosted by Fox News anchors Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum.
Ahead of the debate, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), seen by many to be Trump's biggest challenger in the primary, confirmed that he will attend the debate.
Vivek Ramaswamy, another candidate in the GOP 2024 primary race, stated Saturday that he met the criteria needed to participate in the debate, and will sign the Republican National Committee candidate pledge vowing to support the party's nominee for president, regardless of who it is.
The proposal for Trump to do an interview with Carlson comes after the ex-Fox News anchor's two-and-a-half hour interview with social media influencer and former kickboxer Andrew Tate, which Carlson released on Twitter earlier this month. As of Sunday afternoon, the interview has 94.8 million views.
