Carlson made his name as a tick on Trump's flabby ass. Now he's looking for a new host? Fuck him.
That's so funny I just mentioned Tucker Carlson, talking about people getting beaten to death in unimaginable ways.
Tucker Carlson is a man who, with a straight face, has repeatedly told multiple people, on camera, that he went to sleep in his bed with his 4 large dogs, and woke up with scratches, after feeling s pressure on his body...
... and he concluded this was demonic attack.
I think at this point the alcohol is taking its toll on Tuck.
Oh and of course when Fox News got sued by Dominion Voting Systems, its came out that Tucker absolutely despised Trump, while he was fluffing him up every night, and fluffing up his viewers with leading questions that feed into or generated conspiracy theories.
... Lately he has 'asked' if Trump is the AntiChrist.
And then a few weeks later, he denied that he said this, despite... there being video, of him... on his own show... that he published... saying that.
You can only possibly take Tucker seriously if you are either extremely religious, or basically have brain damage.
what’s the difference between someone who is extremely religious and someone with brain damage? how can we tell?
Who helped him, Tucker?
Y'know . . he can't remember
Tucker wants to run for office. He helped create ALL of this.
Fuck. This. Guy.
He's a bread fucker.
Yeah and your bitch ass is one of the reasons he was able to do it.
He should be hung up like the rest of them. Fuck this guy.
Idk lol i think a lot of people imagined this. And warned the rest of the people very loudly & frequently.
"Hey don't shoot that loaded gun at your foot. If you shoot yourself in the foot, it'll hurt a lot and make walking difficult"
shoots self in foot "OW MY FOOT ^take ^that ^libtards"
"Yeah it was a bad idea, right?"
shoots self in foot again "I HAVE DIMINISHED MY FOOT IN UNIMAGINABLE WAYS"
More like:
"Don't shoot your foot!"
Proceeds to shoot own foot, your foot, my foot and almost everybody on eath's foot.
Yeah fair point. Pretty much exactly like that. Though, I think that with so many republicans being rural and poor, their feet are disproportionately shot despite them doing the shooting.
Oh, is it that time of the year where Fucker Carlson says something true before going back to slinging Russian propaganda again?
Dude is one of the biggest traitors to the US and bears significant responsibility for the current state of things (like most of the human trash that's appeared on Fox News). He's likely only saying this now because Russia finds value in stirring the pot over here.

¿Por Qué No Los Dos?
Daily reminder to not ever eat a Swanson frozen dinner.
People actually eat them? They taste like hobo ass.
How do you know what hobo ass tastes like?
He ate a hobo's ass. Don't kink shame.
It's where this ghoul's money came from, so some people do.
Tucker Carlson is deeply disingenuous and it's probably a mistake to listen to anything he has to say, ever.
When your whole career is built on lies...
Hey! So does Tucker! Cool comparison.
The Right hates this guy now. But for the life of me, I can't figure out why. He was the absolute poster child. "I'm just asking questions" (where you ask completely unfounded questions in an effort to shift discourse where it doesn't need to go) is a cornerstone of MAGA "thought".
...except that saying anything against the MAGA cult leader gets you a permaban. And thus, Tucker is out.
Well even a broken clock is right 2x a day.
Conservative grifters once again realizing that it's difficult to fulfill the niche of faux anti authoritarian broadcaster when your anti establishment candidate becomes the authoritarian establishment.
By the way, it's a shtick that works - Rush Limbaugh and his thousands of imitators on hate radio all pretended and still pretend that they were some kind of outsiders, throwing Molotov cocktails at "the system", LOL.
That they were the true inheritors of the 60s, only just done for good purposes.
Thing is, they represent the real power behind the system and that power wants the last shreds of a safety net cut to zero, bring back things like debtor prisons and cut the middle class to nil.
But plenty of people buy into the kayfabe. Even after Rush was given a Presidential Medal of Freedom by the sitting (failed) president, I bet most of his listeners still thought of him as an "outsider".
It's hilarious how the cons somehow convince themselves it is they who are the Rebel Alliance, punk rock and edgy rockers all wrapped up into one and are rebelling against the daddies of the establishment, when conservatives ache for a daddy to be the boss of them - and everyone else.
Hell, even Tucker said it himself - "Daddy's home".
Who the fuck do these weird assholes even think they are kidding when they act like they are the counterculture? Daddy's home? Fuck you, that ain't punk rock and you ain't the Rebel Alliance.
My favorite example of this was Paul Ryan in unironically claiming that his favorite band was Rage Against the Machines while being speaker of the house.
Says the guy shilling nicotine pouches to teens and bros.
I hate agreeing with this cuck on anything. I wish he'd just fade into obscurity. If he ever runs for office, I'm not voting for this asshole ever no matter what he says.
Yeah, no kidding.
It's almost like he's working for our enemies. Same goes for the REPUBLICANS, by the way. It's not like Donvict is operating in a vacuum, but good luck getting Tucker to admit that.
I bet he and MTG pull the "no true Scotsman" bullshit after he's out of the picture: "he wasn't conservative enough" and "he wasn't a true conservative".
The guy who helped start the fire says arson is bad.
I hope you feel personally responsible.
Stupid person is taking the long road around to learning basic things.
Such news!
No. They're quite imaginable for anyone paying attention, and obvious outcomes of the choices made by him and his cronies.
You don't agree with Tucker, he is agreeing with us.
