“Tucker is an idiot that does NOTHING”
I’m curious, what “something” do you think he should be doing?
“I’m curious, what “something” do you think he should be doing?”
Continue to make millions like he is doing by whipping up the base into a click bait frenzy. To quote him as a news source or influence is crazy.
“☝️ Lots of Tucker Derangement Syndrome on here displayed by Biden trolls using the same argument the left uses against Tucker ☝️”
Good catch. These are the same trolls all in for Biden and the neo-cons on the Ukraine. You would think that their Government masters could atr least give them a day off every once in a while.
Just so I understand clearly: you’re saying it’s fine for him to make a living but not ok for others to use him as a source for news?
Tell Tucker Carlson to defend Mike Lindell, Rudy Giuliani, Sydney Powell, Lou Dobbs and Maria Bartiromo instead of puffing for Putin
I’m curious, what “something” do you think he should be doing?
Making a hero out of a traitor is certainly “something”.
I've got a better idea!
Tell Nueland, Blinkin, McCain, and their tribe to stop advancing on countries with invasions and overturning governments along with regime change like the Maidan Revolution, Arab Spring, etc. An invasion is an invasion, whether covert or kinetic. They are the same. Those aggressions are moving on sovereign nations to force your views on them and their citizens!
We seem to have a real knack for doing that.
-Vietnam
-Iraq
-Afghanistan
-Libya
-Syria
-and more, all ending in disasters!
That nack, like those sanctions, is coming back to haunt us in a big way. I'm sure you've seen the stories about Brazil, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, and India, along with many others representing well in excess of half the population of the earth, who have decided to join a block against the US because of the years of our bullying and hypocrisy.
By the way, while on the subject of hypocrisy, how do you think we would react if China put missiles on the border of Mexico and Canada? I think I know the answer. The same way we did when Cuba got too close to Russia in the 60s, and we set up a blockade on a sovereign country (which we also invaded) 90 miles off our coast. That's hypocrisy!
So you see, Bandon, you may get by with bullying those of us in this country with your warped ideas and corruption like LBGQTXYZ, transgender whackos, race-baiting, COVID mandates, 10% for the big guy, and all your machinations against those of us inside the country. But now that you are dealing with someone who can fight back and challenge your crazy ideas, it's not going too well. Is it?
Paybacks are hell! And we're clearly in the early stages of getting ours.
Making heroes out of traitors is a time honored America hating leftist tradition. Conservatives use to be better than that. Apparently, no longer.
Can you think of what reasons some people might have for feeling that the leaker is a hero?
Wrong-
You can deviate all you want. Just don’t expect folks to support you.
Trump is popular for several reasons.
1. Many conservatives do not like the big government Republicans that are not unlike their Democrat buddies only on other issues. Both seem to favor more spending and more regulations, only on differing topics. The Republicans sing the national security and public safety song, while the Democrats social justice and the environment. It is in fact under Republican rule when you have ssen some of the largest expansions in government powers and spending, i.e. Bush with his Patriot Act, the creation of the TSA/DHS... Pick your poison, both want to grow government, but he has been the ONLY since Reagan to actually reduce the amount of federal regulations: https://www.ecfr.gov/ He threw out or altered some of the politically motivated and idiotic laws, to include Biden’s Crime Bill.
2. Some folks have had enough of the lay down and stick your ass up mentality of most of these Republicans that immediately prostrate themselves as soon as someone cries racism, sexism, xeno or homo phobia. Some don’t get it, they are shocked, but it is exactly this which makes him “loved” by so many: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8f83CrDM0K4 For many people, when Trump takes his middle finger and sticks it into CNNs eye, they’re not offended or insulted, no, they only like him more: https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2017/08/14/trump-calls-cnn-fake-news-acosta-sot-mobile.cnn Many people are tired of the appeasing, weak, apologizing, conservative candidate that is perpetually on the defensive.
3. Trump is very unique in that he is willing to take a course which is not necessarily in step with what his party wants, what the ruling class in America (our oligarchs) want. He pissed off a lot of important folks with his executive orders on pharma and going after trade with China (PRC). Biden immediately turned all that around, to make sure Bezos (trade), Gates, Bourla (pharma), Buffet (pipeline), Soros, Zuckerberg (anti-Trust/Sherman Act)... “everyone that matters” is happy again. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/09/biden-revokes-and-replaces-trump-executive-orders-that-banned-tiktok.html Biden literally made sure all the folks with billions are happy and the MSM talked about how great that is. Literally, immediately Biden made sure big tech, big pharma, some individual oligarchs like Buffet, the PRC... everyone gets what they want under him: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/24/us/politics/huawei-meng-wanzhou.html
Most Republicans would not dare do what Trump did, they are regards many issues indistinguishable (I heard the term uni-party used before - very accurate IMHO) from the Democrats because of the power these folks have.
Here are some things I am sure of. (1) If Trump were still in power, we would not be in a proxy war with Russia. (2) We would not have taken the Covid insanity to the extreme we did (example mandates). (3) Under Trump, we had an UNPRECEDENTED era of economic growth especially if you look at unemployment, inflation, real net wage growth, GDP growth combined (not just one or the other). Under Trump the economy was roaring and federal regulations were shrinking!
It was Covid which brought him down.
Deviate? You mean from The Given Word of Trump? Heresy? Lol.
Nice try - read Freightwaves today - Russia is selling every ounce of Diesel that it can produce. The EU boycott has completely fallen apart.
Turkey, Brazil and India have switched all of their diesel purchases to Russia - Putin is making a fortune.
LOL. That’s a feature and not a bug. Putin is being managed by Brandon’s handlers and the EU because they don’t want Russia to collapse. They could have chosen to suffocate the Russian economy but instead offered loop hole filled sanctions and allowed western businesses (including banks and major retail firms) to continue operating in Russia.
You are a lunatic - Russia - China and India are the economic powerhouses going forward. Brazil and Turkey has moved into their circle. Brandon and the EU is being left in the dust.
Not really the case.
Trump isn’t telling folks what to think. He’s just the first Republican in a looooong time saying what many conservatives think.
From abortion, the second amendment, our allies carrying their weight, cutting into some of these government agencies, to trade, all this LGBTQ nonsense, government regulations, the use of the IRS to silence religious based dicent, use of military force... I can say he is the ONLY candidate that pretty much echoed my thoughts (long held beliefs even before Trump came along).
Most of these republican candidates are wishy washy on the real issues. They will take a symbolic stand to differentiate themselves, to sell themselves on some BS issue, but they will NOT rock the boat on most of the real issues and are damn near indistinguishable from the Democrats. Example, may it be Bush or Clinton, when it came to China they will play along. Do not rock that boat! You will piss off a lot of folks making billions, folks with media influence, that give big to the parties and campaigns. If you screw with China, you will get the media, big tech, some big retailers, oligarchs go against you 100%. If you screw with big pharma, you will get folks with enormous political weight against you, and may it be Obama or Bush, they get what they want and all of these McCain’s, Romney’s, Bush’s, McConnells just play along.
While in office, I could not disagree with him on literally anything, and yes, that made him really popular to some including me.
In a way, Trump is a paradox. Here’s a billionaire, a guy from the North East, ivy league educated, living in cities and married to an immigrant. Yet it is Trump that represented the heart of fly over country, the religious right, the second amendment supporting, and more nationally minded middle class and blue collar folks.

Living in a city and being conservative is not a paradox. There are countries where people in cities want small government and people in low population areas want big government.

Generally speaking, urban areas vote more liberal, even in more conservative states such as Texas where all the major cities are Democrat.
