McConnell blasts Tucker Carlson for demonizing Ukraine aid
The Hill ^ | 04/23/24 4:01 PM ET | BY ALEXANDER BOLTON

Posted on 04/23/2024 9:38:23 PM PDT by RandFan

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) blasted conservative commentator Tucker Carlson on Tuesday for playing a leading role in demonizing the idea of sending military aid to Ukraine, saying the former Fox News host wound up “where he should have been all along” when he gave Russian President Vladimir Putin a megaphone during a fawning interview earlier this year.

“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, referring to Carlson’s two-hour interview with Putin in February, which drew widespread criticism for not challenging Putin’s dubious claims and declarations.

“He convinced a lot of rank-and-file Republicans that maybe this was a mistake,” he said.

Globohomo is trying to play this off as a fight for democracy. .. by funding a guy who has cancelled elections and banned political parties and only has his position because globohomo overthrew a democratically elected leader because he wouldn’t go along with their grift. Not exactly a bear hug for the concept of democracy.

I’m not really anti-Ukraine. I’m anti-globohomo so it’s more of an “enemy of my enemy” thing.

“Tucker only cares about the Kremlin elite people, living their lives in luxury - far away from the frontlines and hell of war.
He has become a spoiled brat. Or an armchair general maybe. It’s sad, I really liked the old Tucker. But he is another person today.

He is a supporter of the deep-state elite in Moscow.”

No one can trust a traitor!
President Trump should not trust Tucker Carlson.

Tucker hated President Trump. THEN, he needed & used Trump for his next career move after being dumped by Fox.

Tucker Carlson said he hates Trump ‘passionately’, lawsuit reveals

“”We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” he wrote in a text sent on 4 January 2021. “I truly can’t wait.”

“I hate him passionately,” he added.

“He has become a spoiled brat. Or an armchair general maybe. It’s sad, I really liked the old Tucker. But he is another person today.
He is a supporter of the deep-state elite in Moscow.”

Mr Carlson, the top-rated host on the conservative network, also appeared to denigrate the Trump presidency in these private messages, despite lauding his achievements on air.

“That’s the last four years. We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There isn’t really an upside to Trump.” -excerpt

“Spoken like a true deep state, Biden-loving disrupter. I expect nothing less from you.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

In what way does my absolute support for Trump’s aggressive and proven anti-Russia policies + pro Ukraine policies, and his doubling down support of Mike Johnson, make me a Biden Lover?

Again, Obama supported Zero Weapons to Ukraine policies.
Trump REVERSED those horrible Obama foreign policies. Trump initiated the whole process shipping large quantities to high-tech US weapons to Ukraine.
According to you, that makes Trump a deep-stater now ?
I support what Trump does. You seem to not support his policies.

That is a cartoon that is meant to perpetuate the globalist agenda, and you lap it up.

If you want the leftist perspective, the zeepers always happily provide that.

Why is the destruction of our own country of no concern to people like you?

Most of them are foreigners pretending to be Americans. Some of them are making money off of this. A lot of them secretly hate Americans and want Biden to continue stealing and destroying.

There isn’t a Zeeper here that doesn’t agree with him. Marcus Maximus has been on a jihad against Tucker for some time.

Mommy: Wrong again.
Your false imaginative hypotheticals run wild.>>>>

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Me: “Yes, mommy, I save posts that are of interest to me. You on the other hand, work in concert with other zeepers, accumulating posts (think Stasi) of pro-American Freepers, who, in your overly-sensitive mind, hurt your feelings and/or prevailed in a debate with you.”

Mommy: Wrong again.
Sadly, your fantasied accusations are totally inaccurate.

Me: “I don’t think you’re a victim.
I think you think you’re a victim.”

Mommy: Once again your imagination goes wild with conjecturing false scenarios.

https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4223217/posts?page=76#76

Mommy’s copy and paste response to everyone who disagrees with her is to accuse them of lying, fantasizing and having demented imaginations.

Rocco’s right: “...you can bet that when she gets ready to drop her turgid spam here she’s got several open Word docs on her desktop ready for quick cut and paste action. Perhaps one with highly selective quotes from Jim’s rules, one of religious/biblical quotes, one with finger wagging idiocy etc.etc.etc.”

“ I support Trump’s proven and tried foreign policies.”
***************************************

….as long as they support Ukraine. Oh, Frenchie, you’re sounding so very, very French today with your Ukraine cheerleading. And, miraculously, your post is immediately followed by a post by Mom cheerleading your cheerleading. Jeez, it’s almost as if it’s ORCHESTRATED.

It is ironic that they (Biden, Democrats, RINOs and others) have to demonize Tucker so they don't have to call supporting a sleazebag beggar/griper over stopping the millions invading the US demonish.

You will not convince your critics by posting garbage from a lefty cartoonist from Buffalo, NY. Everybody on this forum recognizes that you are a despicable leftist. Go away.

Here is an anti-patriotic and anti-Trump gem from you hero cartoonist Adam Zyglis.

And let’s not forget that these 33 seconds are also why zeepers hate Tucker Carlson so much:

I would rather America bomb France for its current colonial policies in Africa before I would want to bomb Russia over the Ukraine.

How does it feel to be a Frog while watching France get booted from its colonies and proxy states all over Africa with the help of Pooty Poot?

When America under the current leftist regime abandons the Ukraine I will definitely ping you for your impressions ;)
