Hi. I’m Peter Navarro, it is March 12, 2023.
And here is some breaking news: Fox News show host Tucker Carlson has purportedly sent out a questionnaire on America’s Ukraine policy to a set of Republican presidential candidates.
My immediate thought upon hearing this news was, to speak in the salty vernacular of one of my old Chiefs of Staff at the Trump White House, John Kelly, “Who the hell does Tucker think he is?”
Before I try and answer to that question, settle down all you fan boys and fan girls of Tucker. I like Tucker, and Tucker has been good to me – at least he was up until the point where the Fox brass canceled me from his show. I’ll get to that in a minute; but first, this:
What Tucker is doing seems to be the height of arrogance. In effect, Tucker thinks his ratings are so big that he can set himself up as a powerbroker in the 2024 presidential race as if he were the actual Fox network itself – such questionnaires the sponsorship of debates are typically the province of the network itself, across the cable news diaspora.
To put this another way, Tucker is sending out questionnaires to presidential candidates in the an apparent belief that because the show is so popular and highly rated, these candidates must kiss Tucker’s ring and fill out those questionnaires – or risk retribution if a candidate fails to answer the questionnaire.

Are you stupid?
What is wrong with you?
By all means. Describe this lofty reference.
It wasn’t in any way, his job to throw out Fauci. Navarro is an economist. Throwing Fauci out was Pence’s job.
well he sure aint you pete- and we thank God for it too
Tucker Fan Boy.
Saturday night live. 1975 season. Chevy Chase catchphrase- “good evening, I’m Chevy Chase and you’re not”.

P.S. the snark is unbecoming of one so committed to being right.
“Who is Peter Navarro?”
You’re kidding, right?
If you’re not, then you’ve BenLurkin in the wrong places.
Honestly, I am tired of our side infighting with one another. It used to be Alex Jones vs. Glenn Beck and before that it was Michael Savage vs. Rush Limbaugh. Now Peter is going after Tucker and Steven Bannon is going after Elon Musk. This crap is what emboldens the left although I am not too sure what side Musk is on.
Political admin folks are not necessarily front page news. But in this case…
Pete’s tangled up in the Trump fallout. He’s trying to make himself look patriotic
I have to agree.
Okay, who is he?
After reading the article in its entirety, and as one of the many voters who hired Trump - twice - to turn the ship of state around, I find Navaro’s argument solid.
Remember that Tucker was mush-minded enough to doubt the scope and scale of the election fraud of 2020. Tucker is useful, but he is not “America First”.
I am actually AMAZED that so many on this site have NO IDEA who Peter Navarro is, WOW has this place changed to so many uninformed!!!
Ha! That's it? Yes I remember that. It was funny in a random kind of way. 1975 was one of the only years I watched that show. They were funny back then.
P.S. the snark is unbecoming of one so committed to being right.
Oh, "Never mind" ;)
I agree.
It wasn’t anyone’s job to physically throw Fauci through the window, like Navarro said that he wanted to, but I still can wish that he did it.
That is who he is!
Tucker is an actor. He plays a character on TV. He has no principles other than to get ratings.
Thank you for trying but I think it’s a lost cause. The level of ignorance is shocking.
