Tucker Carlson: Everyone in the 2020 Democratic field has been diminished. Their ideas are absurd
Fox News ^ | February 28 2020 | Tucker Carlson

Tuesday night's Democratic forum on CBS wasn't the final primary debate of this season, but it's likely the last one that will matter. Between now and the next debate, a total of 21 states -- and that includes the biggest ones, California and Texas -- will hold their primaries. By then, it will almost certainly be over.

So you think the candidates would use the time to talk about things that voters cared deeply about. And for a brief moment, one of them actually did that. In his first answer, Bernie Sanders brought up wages. He said they ought to rise faster, which is true.

Now, how could wages possibly go up with the open borders Sanders is demanding? That's an unanswerable question. But at least he mentioned it and that's exactly why he is the front-runner. When you talk about things people care about, they respond.

The entire Democrat Freakshow is absurd.

During the 10 minutes or so that I watched the South Carolina debate, they looked like freakish grammar school children. It was so ridiculous that I was embarrassed in the room by myself and switched the entire preposterous spectacle off!

"Why am I stopping," he asked. Well, because disjointed sentence fragments are counterproductive in a presidential campaign.

Many funny lines in this for sure. Tucker is making observations a normal person would, these candidates truly are clowns.

It is. Yet Trump is not ahead by 50 points.

Most Dems know that voting for Sanders is a waste.
...........
Even if he got elected he would get literally no cooperation from Congress.
.............
Sanders is now one of the most ineffective Senators.
.............
The Dem nominee has to have Never Trumper crossover votes to beat Trump. Never Trumpers will stay home rather than vote for Sanders.
............
That’s what has the Dems in a lather.

They looked like children> Raising their hands and begging “call on me”. When that didn’t work, they all started talking at the same time. These folks want to be president?

What can you expect from a party built on envy, jealousy, resentment, anger, hatred and discord plus some baby killing. It can only attract the wrong people.

Ir is not true.

Why should wages have to rise at all?

If everybody's wages rise, then so will the cost of manufacture, and hence the price of the material goods they consume. No one will be better off, and perhaps even poorer; and no one will have more of anything, except dollars of credits, which will thus be worth less.

All this bargaining for higher wages means absolutely nothing, except providing an inexcusable reason for union bosses to exist.
