Carlson supported Trump in 2024. After the war began, he apologized for supporting the then-presidential candidate and “misleading people," saying it wasn’t intentional.

But of course…

“Not gonna support the Democratic Party,” Carlson was quick to add, speaking late last week on the show “Can’t Be Censored.” “I don’t know what I’m going to do.”

(When it comes to the “Tuckers” of the world, no matter how much they might hate the GOP, they still hate the Democrats just as much, if not more.)

    Too passive.

    You helped build this empire of shit; nothing short of maximal effort and resources at bringing this regime down will do.

    He’s an actual Christian nationalist white supremacist, so it doesn’t really matter what he says or does. He’s even worse than MAGA and really the natural evolution further right down the radical extremist terrorism pipeline.

    Tucker was fine right up until there were enough Republicans orphaned from the party to grift to. Don’t forget he said he fucking hated Trump long before he showed any sign that he didn’t wanna gargle his nuts. If you think Tucker shows an honest face, ever, you’re delusional. He has clear aims, but his method of achieving them always includes deception.

      He’s genuinely dangerous. He has the strategic evilness of Steve Bannon, the ruthlessness of Stephen Miller, with the charisma of Trump. He’s very smart, and knows how to build an audience. I’m the most worried about him running for office.

      Agreed. But I agree with him just this one time in terms of not knowing what to do. GOP is awful, but democrats don’t have what it takes to get Israel off the tit and solidify the change and stability we need. We need the purple party made up of people who want to address bipartisan issues first. (pointless wars, term limits, proportionate taxes, data center limits, etc)

        Completely agree. It would be a dream to have us agree and work together on almost all the issues and make politics boring again.

    Former MAGA pundits like this asshole are quick to bring out criticism and taking credit for it, while the left has been saying “I fucking told you so” since before the election.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he winds up supporting JD Vance for 2028 after all this.

      I think you mean “Nazis only support Republicans”. The way you said it makes it seem like Republicans has no other supporters than Nazis which isn’t true.

          Yeah I guess that’s true, but I’m just saying in some idiot MAGA’s mind they’re just “sticking it to the libs” or “protecting children from free thought that leads to trans evilness” whatever bullshit.

          Then in some classical conservative evil billionaire, they’re trying to squeeze as much money and resources as possible from their customers and the earth, but they’re not explicitly like “I hate all Jews”. It’s a big tent is what I’m saying, and literal Nazis are part of it.

            i esteem them about the same as i esteem Nazis who joined the Nazi party to “stick it to the Commies” or “protect children from viral spongiform gay” or whatever hateful bullshit rhetoric they made up to justify it, they still Nazis
