Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson utterly stumped a reporter by simply asking for a citation after she accused him of promoting The Great Replacement Theory.
Carlson denied a reporter’s accusation that he argued immigrants are replacing white people in the United States, Australia and Europe.
“Have I said that whites are being replaced?” he asked. “I don’t think I said that.”
“Well, it’s been mentioned on your show 4,000 times,” the reporter said.
“Really? When did I say that?” Carlson pressed.
“On your show,” the reporter claimed.
“I said whites are being replaced? … Really? I would challenge you to cite that because I’m pretty sure I haven’t said that. I said native-born Americans are being replaced, including blacks,” he said...
The reporter claimed his argument encouraged the mass shooter who killed 10 people in a supermarket in Buffalo, New York in May 2022.
“Oh God, come on,” Carlson responded. “Do you know what I mean?”
“It’s inspired one of the worst Australian —” she continued.
“How do you get people this stupid in the media? I guess it doesn’t pay well. Look, I’m sorry. I’ve lived among people too long. I don’t mean t call you stupid — maybe you’re just pretending to be, but I’m totally against violence,” he said, adding that he hates the war in Ukraine and mass shootings.

One of the the things Tucker said was that Americans are not having children because they can’t afford them, not because they don’t want them. (I disagree somewhat, that many don’t, but he is correct that many who want children can’t.) Because Americans are not having children, the elites are importing illegals who are unlikely to assimilate. Tucker is brilliant.
These people are so arrogant. They think it’s smart to put words into peoples’ mouth and then attack them over it. They conflate issues and think it’s a ‘gotcha’ when they inflate to absurd levels.
It’s like saying, “Hitler liked steak, so do you, so the mass shooter, who also liked steak, was inspired by you, because you’re just like Hitler”.
It makes your head spin, but they do this daily. It doesn’t make you smart, it makes you a moron.
Bkmk
Yup.
That was beautiful to watch.
