Tucker Carlson Attacking Trump and Jared Kushner Tonight. Really?
Fox News Tucker Carlson

Posted on 06/01/2020 5:32:07 PM PDT by Williams

After Trump's statement and deploying the military, Tucker attacked Trump - no other word for it - because the Fox reporter got assaulted last night.

Next he chose to attack Jared Kushner for pushing prison reform. Really? Tonight? A cheap shot against Jared K because Tucker dislikes him and his policies?

Tucker started with a perfectly fine attack on the violent rioters, but he then started criticizing Trump. Acted like Trump calling out the troops today was an afterthought.

I agree with Tucker the rioting has to be stopped. But Trump has gotten that from day 1.

The attack on Trump was deeply offensive and tone deaf to the President's words and actions.

Using this to attack prison reform? Tucker got the point but then he missed the point.

Agreed. The only sour note was the odd expectation that Trump should have protected the Fox reporter.

Never forget ole Tucker’s signature style used to be a freaking BOW TIE.... the symbol of academics usually combined with a tobacco pipe. Studious like.

He is more conservative than neo con Bill Kristol ever was— but he gets carried away on occasion. Also— should note, despite his high ratings he will do what the Fox owners tell him to do.. the Murdoch brothers and their liberal spin. Just a point. He’s done it before.

Not pre recorded. Definitely pre-written with last minute edits before show time.

I completely agree...
One thing I’ve figured out watching his show tonight,
is that we are totally on our own.
We can’t trust anybody.

Going out tomorrow to buy a carry weapon.

Someone needs to give him a copy of the Constitution. Poor thing, maybe he just doesn’t understand the words.

Yeah the chicken farmer who had zero military experience— but knew how to run the Final Solution. And when he witnessed mass gassing with Zyklon B pesticide-— he puked and cried like a little baby. Big brave Heinrich, took poison rather than face Nuremburg. Chicken farmer, chicken shite.

No—we don’t need any g-d German Leftist Socialists thank you, who are only just a little to the right of Antifa— pure crazed Communists.

Conspicuous display of the correct moral position.

Field reporter made it sound as if cops taking a knee was symbolic of peace but Carlson later said “We know who’s in charge” signifying the protestors won in a sense.

I don’t see a problem with attacking Jarad Kushner.

I agree with Tucker. But, folks, if you didn’t like Tucker’s monologue or comments about Jared Kushner, keep in mind that you were not the primary intended audience for those comments. Tucker was clearly attempting to convey a message to Trump himself. Let’s not forget that Tucker is a lot more plugged into the dynamics of the White House than you are. He consults Trump directly and has traveled with the President. His point here was that Trump’s instincts are usually right, but Kushner sometimes talks Trump out of following those instincts and is doing so now. Make no mistake, Tucker’s monologue was intended to counteract what he considers to be Kushner’s bad advice.

And do you agree with attacking Trump today?

Point is that was just Tucker’s agenda. Had very little or nothing to do with the topic. And it was part of an attack on Trump.

Watch Tucker turn on Trump.

I don’t like anyone critizing the President and I now see why so many don’t like Jared Kushner. I have a theory....he’s been chomping at the bits to get out and stop this and we think he’s been told by his “advisors” to chill....well I think he exploded and said hell or high water he was going to talk and boy did he.....and walking across the street to St. Johns was sweet and holding the Bible even sweeter. His inner instincts guide him and he needs to make that clear to his team, son-in-law or others, I’ll take this from here........

Bingo but imho we need Trump a hell of a lot more than we need Carlson. Tucker was using this crisis to threaten Trump politically over what Tucker wants.

Criticism for hiring Omorosa? Really? Tonight? How long ago was she fired?

Wrong about Trump. Right about Kushner, the house liberal Dem.

Jared may be Satan himself it has nothing to do with tonight.

Jared's been pushing Trump to release criminals from prison in order to win the black vote in November. That policy has nothing to do with what's going on this week?

No Tucker said Trump didn’t act fast enough and as a consequence Fox’s reporter in D.C. was harassed and attacked the other night but then he acknowledged Trump’s speech today and said Good For Him but he then said Trump is getting bad advice from Kushner and others around him. They push back agains anything Trump wants. Tucker also called outRepublicans who were saying misleading things in support of the rioters/protestors. Tucker made his point.
