Tucker Carlson says Trump is ‘not capable’ and hasn’t kept his promises
washingtonpost.com ^ | December 6, 2018 | Deanna Paul

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.”

He regularly insults President Trump. Has been a Nevertrumper from 2016. Recently he has modified his stance but still insults POTUS.

"Exactly so and tonight was the very last time I'll ever tune into his worthless, more often than not overtly annoying show.

I suspect that I am not alone in deciding to never watch him ever again and he should have known that that was going to be the reaction to his interview responses."

Yes.

And that manic guest, Chris Hahn, and the wild eyed 'Liberal Sherpa', Cathy Areu, are just pathetic.

Fox News is pretty lame.

Did you see that article of late about the influence of Bill Sammon with the Murdocks?

LOL ..... Not really.

More often than not he ends up shrieking, wincing and acting like a befuddled child when yammering over his ridiculous guests such as the manic Chris Hahn, and the bug eyed but somewhat entertaining, Cathy Areau.

Tucker Carlson is a lightweight.

I was fooled a couple of years ago, but Carlson needs to grow up, maybe go lay brick.

"As for an intensive course in history? I guess I will have to wait to find someone who has the qualifications to teach me history. I certainly don’t see anything in your posts which makes me think you are that person.

Why haven’t you created an about page? Nothing to put on it?"

May I add to your "conversation"?

'Nopardons' most likely knows much, much, much more history than you, TDML. After years of observation, there IS NO QUESTION.

Now ...... I guess I better go hurry and put something on my profile page to attract your approval.

"Carlson said he cannot stand Trump’s self-aggrandizement and boasting.'

______________________

Speaking as one who will vote for and heavily support DJT in the future, one thing must be said.

The President will have a much more difficult time winning a second term if he doesn't make some adjustments that are addressed in the quoted remark above.

His never ending BOASTING is losing him millions of votes.

To quickly change that (loss of votes) is quite simple.

Examples: 1. Instead of saying "I WON this ...." he should always say, WE won this for the country" .... 2. "TOGETHER WE created the strongest economy for our country and its people" etc., etc.

***********

I know that there are many here who respond by saying , "he has to tweet, he has to get his news out, the MSM won't". That is true, let him tweet all he wants, but the problem is simply the wording of the tweets and all his remarks concerning his accomplishments.

He must REMOVE the word "I" when talking about accomplishments. Everyone knows he's the center of the successful achievement.

If his constant boasting bothers even me, I can see how gross it is to those who have doubts about him to begin with.

(Women, as a rule, do not like men who find the need to brag after they have succeeded at something.)

If D.J.T. wants a second term he has to get rid of the word "I", and speak of his accomplishments for the country .... NOT AS "WINS", but as "achievements or successful efforts" for the good people of America.

by the way ........ I just saw this tweet:

Melissa A.‏ @TheRightMelissa

“Racist” Trump just signed an executive order for urban revitalization to help lift blacks out of poverty. This order will incentivize companies to invest in black neighborhoods bringing jobs & opportunity. It also gives business loans to help start ups. Zero Media attention

"Zero Media Attention" --- that makes me sick!

Someone talked about this on FNC last night; sorry don't remember which show it was...maybe Laura's.

But the MSM won't EVER talk nor write about this.

If Obama had even just mentioned something like this, it would be "NEWS" for at least a week and talked and written about ENDLESSLY; even when NOTHING at all happened...no follow through or it went terribly wrong, like the damned ObamaCare.

You are totally correct.

And I don't see any way this country can be saved if the great majority of our (voting) citizens NEVER SEE any of the REAL AND GOOD NEWS of what this President is doing.

This evil MEDIA environment is more than frightening.

The country is in deep danger.

The stinking MARXISTS/SOCIALIST/COMMIES/NAZIS and others, long ago, knew that whomever controlled the news/what people heard/read about, controlled the nation or empire.

And with the faaaaaaaaaar lefty TECH OLIGARCHS, here, censoring, on EVERYTHING they control, people have to really search for just factual news; which most people don't have the time nor inclination to do.

OTOH...the answer to all of the above is for people like us, to tell EVERYONE we know, what WE know and never back down! And yes, I do this; via face to face, in emails, snail mail, and two "news letters", and I always tell everyone where they can go to see,FIRST HAND, what I have read/am telling them about.

That's right. Most likely around 80% to 90 % of our voting public have no access and don't GO FIND some access to honest media (such as OAN).

"OTOH...the answer to all of the above is for people like us, to tell EVERYONE we know, what WE know and never back down"" ---

UNFORTUNATELY THAT WILL NOT DO ANYWHERE NEAR ENOUGH GOOD. "We" don't know enough people.

I know that you overestimate the number of people like some here at FR who will do as you wish (to tell EVERYONE we know). People like those here are a miniscule number when you look at this huge nation of political fools and those who don't give a damn.

I think we need a new network created by those who know and care.

No, actually I believe that there aren't many, here, who SHOULD even attempt to "spread the word", so to speak; though more than you imagine might care to...they wouldn't be any good at it! What I suggested is that they should just tell others where to go to see/hear the facts, instead of the anti-Trump propaganda.

A new channel won't work; especially if it's streaming, or one like OAN, that only a very, very, VERY few people get.

Hmmm.

Maybe for a month or so before the 2020 election we (Trump voters all over the country having raised millions of dollars for the purpose), could hire thousands of skywriters to shoot out positive messages about DJT.
