Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday blamed Tucker Carlson for turning some Republicans against the idea of providing military aid for Ukraine by demonizing the war-torn country.

The top Republican in the Senate argued that Carlson’s outspoken stance against US support for Ukraine was one of the primary reasons why approving more than $60 billion in emergency spending for the former Soviet state took so long to achieve.

“I think the demonization of Ukraine began by Tucker Carlson, who in my opinion ended up where he should have been all along, which was interviewing Vladimir Putin,” McConnell said during a press conference

Demonization of Tucker Carlson a waste of time and resources in an election year IMHO.

But Mitch is Uniparty not interested in helping Republicans win.

I have never listened to the Carlson guy much to the chagrin of some people I talk to.

Regardless in this case I think Ukraine and their leader are the ones demonizing themselves.

I still marvel at how despite supply chain issues with everything else after covid suddenly within a week every npc had and was flying a Ukraine flag and many had a bumper stickers.

“I rather think of it as I am actually getting Tucker to come around to my way of thinking:)”

LOL me too. I like to think Tucker is evolving and will eventually come to agree with me on everything lol.

Like anyone cares what a guy with a 6% approval reading thinks. And beyond that isn’t he like 30 minutes late for his dirt nap?

‘Demonization’? I don’t need Tucker Carlson to tell me my tax dollars are being squandered on security for another nation while my nation’s borders are being over-run, you old, worthless fraud.

Sorry Mitch, I’d say the Biden crime family using Ukraine as its base for money laundering, and illegal kickbacks, helped demonize Ukraine.

This despicable GOPe POS did more damage to this country long before Russia invaded Ukraine. This pathetic excuse for a human being is an embarrassment to all of humanity.

Must be what they tell each other at Hannity’s restaurant.

There’s money for the whole world, but don’t lessen American’s taxes by a $600 check.
