Fox News Channel host Tucker Carlson set straight any misinformation concerning his views on President Trump: “I don’t think he’s capable,” he said during an interview on Tuesday.
Urs Gehriger, an editor at “Die Weltwoche,” the country’s leading German-language opinion weekly, noted that Carlson’s new book, “Ship of Fools,” is silent on Trump but comments on his critics. And so, Gehriger jump-started the conversation by asking what Carlson thought of Trump’s first two years in office.
Carlson said he cannot stand Trump’s self-aggrandizement and boasting. Then, when asked whether Trump has kept his promises, the usually quick-witted and long-winded Carlson had just one word: “No.”

On the upside, the trade deficit is at record levels.
Trump is like our FFs, laying EVERYTHING he has and is, on the line, for this nation and her people.
If this isn’t FakeNews, Tucker proves himself to be the consummate DC Elitist Swamp Creature. He appears to be increasingly annoyed with the Witch Hunt, but NEVER actually has one favorable word about President Trump. He will occasionally support an agenda item, but NEVER praises the man, himself.
I’ve been a faithful Tucker viewer since day one. Perhaps no longer.
If true, I’m done with Tucker and therefore 97% of Fox News.

Excellent reply.
to close the border....Trump is the only man in DC that will do it....
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is why we elected Trump and rejected the Bush League Republicans.
None of them will.
Tucker doesn’t like his personality so he thinks he’s not capable. This in spite of all Trump has already accomplished. What a shallow immature fool Tucker is.
Trump’s vision of what America should be is what has made America exceptional.
Don’t you dare presume to tell me what I AM and what I am NOT.
You know NOTHING. The Founding Fathers at least had one another to rely on, what, who does DJT have? West Virginia who DJT threw a life line to couldn’t even deliver one more GOP Senator and instead allowed that Hillary Lover Manchin to be re-elected.
The voters or corruption gave the House back to dems and no one even blinks an eye...The justice department works for someone, but it sure isn’t DJT, nor is it the American people. When does the man say enough? Is this even worth it? Especially knowing that as soon as he leaves office all will revert back to what it was.
A republic if you can keep it? We couldn’t keep it.
IMHO a big part of the trashing that Trump gets every day in the media and by the swamp creatures is to discourage any other great non-politician leader from even considering running for office. Trump said at his rallies how many people have accepted a nomination from him only to wait months, even years, for confirmation. Congress is so disgusting.
FOX IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. Dump FAUX News and watch One America News because OAN is what Faux News pretends to be.
Thanks; much appreciated!
Yes Congress is disgusting and when Trump is done so am I. I can’t vote for these people any more. They are corrupt and vile they took this beautiful experiment known as the USA and made it over in their own image, something so very ugly and vile.
Our Founding Fathers would weep at what the Schumers, Clintons, McConnels, Ryans, Pelosis, etc., etc., have done.
Just beating the inevitable Hillary and her disastrous reign was enough for me.
In alternate timeline, she won, and America was turned into the Shire under Sharkey.
You are exactly right. When a Trumps done, I’m done. No politician will be worth spit.
You are in great need of an intensive course in factual history about this nation's beginnings and the men who were our FFs! You also do NOT understand much of anything else and keep proving that with every post!
Your carping about West Va. is what a child would claim!
Most people WILL vote for an incumbent, because they see it differently than you do AND Joe DID vote for Kavanaugh; he knew that if he didn't he WOULD have gotten the boot!
Most of the "new" Dem Congress Critters came from CALIFORNIA! Massive voter fraud, damned ILLEGAL ALIEN voters, and homeless paid to vote!
Obviously you don't know nor understand any REAL New Yorkers of a certain age. You may like Trump; however, you are utterly CLUELESS and bereft of understanding of what he thinks, how he operates, or how he has lived his life. And yet, you call yourself a "DEPLORABLE"?
Just as none of us expected Trump to throw his hat into the ring, much before he did, neither do we now know ( especially YOU ), whom he has influenced, who will seek office and emulate him in the future! And if you claim to "know" the future, then please post tomorrow's winning POWERBALL numbers...RIGHT NOW! :-)
Whilst Franklin was quick with a quip, he couldn't see the future and don't forget that he wanted this nation's symbol to be a lousy turkey!
I have been fighting this fight for well over 50 years and I am tired. I had placed my faith in the Republican party and cried when pubbies finally took over congress. IT was the first time in my lifetime and I really did believe things would change.
Since then things have not changed they have plodded on and on while our country and our people have suffered.
Trump is the last honest man and the very last patriot in elected office. I can’t see another one like him ever taking on the establishment.
Benedict Arnold, Arron Burr,and Thomas Jefferson; for starters, are right up there with those whom you've named from modern times. I'm not going to spoon feed you a list from of other greedy, corrupt scum, throughout this nation's history, but YOU really need to do that scut work for yourself.
“... REAL CONSERVATIVES...”
Well, ‘conservative’ does not have an objective definition.
Plus, this is The FREE REPUBLIC. Not the Conservative Republic.
There are plenty of sites devoted to the latter around - well, one less (Weekly Standard) pretty soon. But not so many sites that would advocate a return to a truly originalist Free Republic.
And Trump is not even close to a Free Republic advocate. Domestic policy-wise he is much closer to the typical big government Republican.
It’s not really deniable. He is a proud supporter of destructive, unconstitutional fed entitlements. And why? Because they are popular, he is a populist after all. Which works in our favor on the border, but not on most legislation. We simply have been fortunate that Paul Ryan is incompetent or Trump and he would have picked your pocket and mandated aspects of your life and our economy even further.
He even went about bashing the best folks in Congress, the HFC, in his attempt to create another big, bad fed program. It’s the best example of his misuse of the jackass personality - which I like when it is properly directed at the enemy instead of at our best people.
I still really like other aspects of Trump. The cooling of the climate insanity, trade things, Israel support, de-regulation, etc. Oh, and the left wing press bashing!
But mature minds can support him and still be honest about his flaws, some of which are severe.
Trump is great and all, but clearly NOT a Freedom-first guy. He should NOT be coddled, but rather encouraged to do better in this regard.
Tucker, Ann Coulter and such are doing both Trump and us a YUGE favor by calling him out on mistakes and trying to keep him on track.
Obama-style blind devotion does not help you, him or America.
Then YOU don’t belong here either and also do NOT give a damn about this nation nor her future. That’s right...just throw in the towel, but complain constantly about things, like a child with the “TERRIBLE TWOS”!
To be accurate, Bush 41 wasn't the person making those claims about himself before his death. Others did... which I know you know. However, this is an important distinction to make.
I knew it was a matter of time with Chatsworth Osborn, Jr. Rush had him pegged right years ago.
He put up a good front for two years to build ratings. Never trusted this guy.
