Tucker Carlson and the Depressing News
BEJ

Posted on 06/09/2020 7:57:29 AM PDT by BEJ

I watch Tucker Carlson almost every night and I think I get an intelligent and balanced perspective on events. However, recently Tucker is giving a very insightful and powerful view of the news, but it is almost unbearable to watch. I feel that the US has toppled to the forces of anarchy. Tucker is warning us but it almost seems too late with all the events that have taken place.

I know this is wrong -- America is still strong and the mayhem on the streets are not reflective of the whole nation. However, by watching Tucker I end up depressed in a way that I can't easily shrug off. He is right to warn us and gives us valid reasons with many powerful visuals. I am just wondering if this depressive effect is also experienced by other viewers. And if so, what do you do about it aside from not watching?

As an indication of how powerful his broadcasts are, the clips are now showing up regularly on RealClearPolitics.

We’re still in the majority.

In population, yes. But they've got all the Institutions, lock, stock and barrel.

Exactly how the anarcocrats want you to feel, depressed and unable to cope. That way they can suppress the vote for Trump. Don’t let them beat you.

Agree. Dan Bongino gets it. Particularly as former cop

When normalcy bias is forcibly removed the effect can be quite jarring. Depression comes when you see it and feel like you can’t take any action against it...the forces moving in one direction build enough momentum to appear irresistible.

“I can’t see swing voters springing for Trump, or any incumbent. This year has been a challenger’s dream”

Do you REALLY think voters would believe the ‘challenger’ —Biden!— could repair this mess better than Trump could in a second term? Especially after his progress in his first term, despite all the crap that was slung at him?

Do you REALLY think voters are too stupid to SEE that the Commiecrats MADE the mess in the first place? And that what’s happening right now is intentional sabotage of Trump’s agenda?

Do you think more voters will vote for the thugs & saboteurs who clearly hate Anerica?
That’s what CNN/MSNBC wants you to think.
Turn off your TV & stop drinking their koolaid.

“It’s not about abolishing the police. It’s about replacing the police”

Right. Commies don’t hate the cops. They want to BE the cops.

I don’t own a TV, so it would be hard to turn it off. Yes, I believe a significant portion of American voters are that fickle and ill-informed, that they would associate the incumbent with current unpleasant circumstances and proceed to vote for whoever else is running.

I know this is wrong -- America is still strong

There are two Americas the center can not hold.

The real threat is massive demographic change. California used to be a normal place politically. It will never be one again. Ever. The trends are not good elsewhere.

Elections don't matter anymore. Trump won, what good has it done? They control all the Institutions.

What is depressing is that only ONE commentator will speak the truth. That is what is depressing.

It’s disconcerting AND fascinating. Life goes by fast...
