Friday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” “Fox & Friends Weekend” co-host and Daily Caller editor in chief Tucker Carlson declared the European Union to be over following the United Kingdom’s vote to exit the E.U. According to Carlson, without the United Kingdom, the European Union becomes a “German-dominated alliance,” something other members would not want to be a part of. “It’s over – the E.U. is over,” Carlson said. “Because by the way at this point without the U.K. in it, it’s a German-dominated alliance. Germany now officially runs Europe, so if you’re Spain or France, do you want to be part of that? Of course not. Look at the numbers. This is the untold story. In France for example, not a right-wing country, 61 percent of people polled say they want to leave the E.U. If it’s polling at 61, you know it’s 65 if not 70. So you’re going to see an exodus of country from this union for sure.” Follow Jeff Poor on Twitter @jeff_poor

Partial transcript as follows: REPORTER: Back to — back to the Brexit thing. You said that David Cameron maybe misread the mood of his country. Given that President Obama came over here and tried to encourage people to vote remain, and Hillary Clinton has made it clear she preferred they vote remain, what do you think this says about how Hillary Clinton maybe has misread the world, and since she’s a former secretary of state, what does that say about her campaign? TRUMP: Well, She has always misread everything. (LAUGHTER) I mean — no, if you think. She has misread this. And I was surprised that she was so bold and to say — well, the only reason she did it is because Obama wanted it. You know, if Obama wanted it the other way, if he said leave, she would have said leave. She does whatever he wants her to. Now, you know why, but that’s OK, we don’t
