John Stewart was right about Tucker Swanson. Douchebag.

People like TC want bozos like Trump to be in charge so that the people manning outlets like FOX can become important advisors, consultants, lackeys, and co-conspirators. It’s the Rupert Murdoch Power Player fantasy spread around like a putrescent goo into the machinery of the state.

Interesting. Watch for other apparatchiks preparing the faithful for the post-Trump party.

“He didn’t accomplish anything, but he started the conversation”…about concentration camps for children.

Ol’ Tucker must have a 401k tied to stocks ----

Carlson is only a half-classed commentator. He is right about Little Donnie’s inability to deliver on his promises but he has no idea about the conversations the Short-Fingered Vulgarian has started.

Encouraging people to talk of possible Civil War is not a conversation that should be nurtured

In a wildly honest new interview

Honest? Yes, trump is surely “not capable”, but I’m not sure much else Fucker Carlson said was honest.

Immigration not being a hot-button issue until trump? Bullshit.

Stopping at only calling trump “not capable”? Dishonesty by omission - he’s far worse than incapable.

I also notice that while he was being “wildly honest”, he continued to spout his wildly right-wing propaganda.

Tucker Carlson is an expert on not being capable of things. I trust his analysis here.

From the headline, I inferred the non-entity was trying to be an entity. False Alarm.
He gets points for no longer wearing that fucking bow-tie, though.

He suggested that Trump’s strength lies in his ability to start “the conversation” about “what actually matters,…”

Yup. He’s a great conversation starter alright.

No great interest in what that prick has to say but it’s significant that he’s packing his bugout bag. He’s not stupid, he just says stupid things for money. But this is almost certainly the first wave of people abandoning an obviously failed effort to prop up an incompetent figurehead. The smart money is betting against his survival, and acting accordingly IMHO. More will come. Once he lost them the House it was all but guaranteed.

I never listen to him but it’s clear he’s simply deliberately obtuse. He knows why NATO still exists.

Doesn’t he talk like Trump here:

“Since I finished writing the book, I’ve come to believe that Trump’s role is not as a conventional president who promises to get certain things achieved to the Congress and then does. I don’t think he’s capable. I don’t think he’s capable of sustained focus,”

Really I’m not a grammar Nazi, but I do read, I am literate, and this makes no sense to me-“who promises to get certain things achieved to the Congress and then does.” WTF?

"I don’t think he’s capable of sustained focus,”

So two votes for not being focused cast by Carlson and Tillerson. Can we here from any more son(s) on this characteristic?

Ask Tucker if NATO had any role after 9/11.

I thought Tucker Carlson was a self-righteous asshole when he supported Trump. My opinion has not changed.

Not to mention that “We were not having any conversation about immigration before Trump arrived in Washington” is just a blatant falsehood.
