Tucker on coronavirus relief standoff: 'Democrats remain intent on splitting the country into warring tribes'
Fox News ^ | March 24 2020 | Yael Halon

Tucker Carlson called on Democrats in Congress Monday to put aside their "stupid partisan points" and stop "indulging their creepy ideological obsessions" to focus on getting a coronavirus relief bill passed.

"Americans worry they can die of this disease and someone they love could die if they lose their jobs and could be crippled permanently in the wake of this disaster. It's a terrifying moment," Carlson said. "In that moment, we need wisdom and steady guidance from our leaders. We need altruism, [they] need to care more about you than they care about themselves ... but in Congress, they don't."

"So we are staring down the barrel of the most profound employment crisis of our lifetime -- that’s not an exaggeration -- and what are Democrats doing?" asked Carlson. "Trying to automatically renew visas and work permits for all immigrants because their jobs are very important, way more important than yours. Democrats want to make certain that people who are replacing you are secure and happy,

I hope the congressional Rs recognize the danger the Ds represent. We sure do.

Tucker is even more cynical than I. He said we need to prepare for a day next week when we have 4,000 deaths in a day. My prediction was 2,000. Whatever, we need to get to the “top of the mountain” quickly so we can begin our descent on the other side.

Trump has the opportunity here to chastise the Democrats severely by arresting every coup conspirator starting with Schiff and Nadler and he should do it today. He should ORDER Durham to do so now. He has every right to.

Why would any rational person believe that a group of people who enthusiastically celebrate and promote the killing of preborn human life would be truly concerned about the health and well being of the American people. In fact in their twisted, pathological minds they view an epidemic that kills a good percentage of the population as a beneficial sacrifice to their pagan earth gods. Never trust in any way someone who says they are “pro choice”.

I can’t much argue with your conclusion. Dems are not America’s friends.

I hope the descent is more acute than the ascent.

It’s not just the pre-born they celebrate and promote killing.

This is a no risk play for the Democrats.
- Americans need this.
- Republicans will shoulder most, if not all of the blame for not passing it. The media will say that the GOP is holding up the deal over a few “small points”.
- Americans are stupid and actually listen to the media, even though they don’t like the media.

Congress and their staff shouldn’t be getting paychecks.

If we have been 100% “good kids” it should be. The slope of the descent is up to us, not the virus.

“I hope the congressional Rs recognize the danger the Ds represent. We sure do.”

The Democrats are much more of a existential threat than covid-19. I fully support extreme measures to combat the Democrat threat.

The title is simpler than that:

“Democrats have no Interest in Recovery”

Democrats are 100% politics. If putting sick transvestites in your children’s bathrooms didn’t convince you, nothing will.

There is zero political gain for Democrats in an economic recovery.

The DNC is the US wing of the Chinese Communist Party.

Yup. We were down to 3.5% unemployed. Now we are near 50% with only first responders the main folks working. Everyone else is sitting home. We really don’t know the real unemployed numbers. How can we?? Most were just sent home. Most don’t have much to fall back on. Most are hoping for the money the congress is working on, but the Dimocommies continue to hold it up. If you ain’t at work working, then you are basically unemployed because you ain’t bringing in a paycheck.

“Congress and their staff shouldn’t be getting paychecks.”


Not only that,

Mitch McConnell should order doors to the Senate Chambers LOCKED and tell them that NOBODY leaves until we get a clean bill for the American Citizens who are in dire straits.

Let the bastards (sorry Jim) whine about that!
