    He is an entitled trust fund baby, who would never have to work another day in his life (due to inheritance, he said it himself), but pretends to be one of the plebes, because he learned from trump how to spit out the right dog whistles and hate the right people, so he gets their adoration. He does it for attention, if it does harm to the country, who cares (he certainly doesn't).

    And then, there is also his covid B$ he spouts constantly, anti-mask, anti-vaxx, Dem hoax, while he himself has received the vaccine. 100% hypocrite.

    The same goes for his populist stance. He is for the free market, but he himself never really had to compete in the free market, because he was born with a golden spoon in his mouth. I doubt, however, that he has enough introspection to realize this. Just like Trump, he probably thinks he is self made, and deserves all the riches he has, whereas the ones he is preaching to..... That's a different story what he REALLY thinks about them.

    I might add that Tucker tried to get Ben Sasse REPUBLICAN senator from Nebraska to comment on Cabela's buyout and the impact on a Nebraska town.

    There was none and then Tucker mentioned how Sasse received campaign donations from Paul Singer's PAC.

    So let me ask the question again why would any real liberal hate Tucker?

    And the question has been answered but since you don't like the answer you will ignore it.

    That is idiotic. Tucker has never been anti mask or vaxx. He is against mandates and firing people who do not comply.

    Another issue where you dems take the side of the mega elites and big Pharma against working people.

    As to Tucker being born wealthy so what? You have your lips affixed to the collective asses of the richest people who ever walked the earth. They helped Joe Biden get elected.

    So attack a guy with a net worth of $35-$50 while selling your soul to those worth more than a thousand times more?

    Do you see the ignorance and hypocrisy? They hate successful people but love people worth hundreds of billions.

    Tucker is too rich! Bill Gates is a hero! Pfizer is awesome!

    It's not as simple an issue as you make it appear.

    Local news outlets in Nebraska have cast some doubt on Carlson’s version of what happened in Sidney, and Singer’s firm, Elliott Management, responded with a Medium post in which it claimed that Cabela’s financial health was far worse than Carlson detailed, adding that it felt the coverage was “motivated less by sincere concern over layoffs and more by a desire to twist any set of facts to portray Elliott in the most damaging light possible.”

    • “Patriot Purge,” Tucker Carlson’s three-part documentary series about Jan. 6, attempted to rewrite the events of the insurrection.
    • The series floated several conspiracy theories about Jan. 6, including that the violence was instigated by left-wing activists, that it may have been an FBI-led false flag, and that the government is using it to strip millions of Trump voters of their constitutional rights.
    • The series flashed to imagery from the post-9/11 era and included sympathetic interviews with people involved in the events of Jan. 6. It falsely claimed the rioters are “political prisoners."

    Show me ONE post where I (Dem) take the side of the elites and big Pharma? I'll wait, because I haven't done that. Should be easy, however, for you to prove, since you made the assertion.

    As to elites: Tucker is as elite as they come. Do you think he would get his prep-school as$ onto a Mid West farm, where he could get his $2,000 shoes dirty? Not a chance. Yet, just like Trump, the hard-working, close to minimum-wage-making, paycheck-to-paycheck living conservatives LOVE him. Why? Because he hates the correct people.

    Mandates for vaccines and masks? You hate a talk show host because he dared to argue that they should be a personal choice?

    And who cares about Tucker's personal wealth? He is not the one trying to censor and suppress speech.

    Trump's economic policies were good for working people. We had record low unemployment for blacks, Hispanics, Asians and women. That does not mean they were not also good for wealthy people and wall street.

    Trump's tariffs cost U.S. companies $46 billion to date, data shows
    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...s-46-billion-to-date-data-shows-idUSKBN1Z8222

    A January 2021 study commissioned by the U.S.-China Business Council (USCBC) claims that former president Donald Trump’s trade policies cost the United States 245,000 jobs. As a Reuters news report put it, the USCBC claimed that “a gradual scaling back of tariffs” could help stop the bleeding, while also arguing that a failure to do so would lead to even greater job losses and more sluggish growth.

    He's still worth $138B.

    According to this site he has given $50B to "charity" so you exercising some libo math there? And no it is not heroic giving money away that had no impact on his life.

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...over-50-billion-charitable-causes/3169864001/

    I would not call some rich elitist outlier giving money for population control a hero. I do not hate him like many conservatives do but he is no hero.

    I'm guessing because he's very slimy and looks like a child molester.
    He should work on his visual style. This would help a lot! :)

    There is an esports term pwned. It means owned.

    Libos have been summarily pwned by this thread.

    Is this what this thread about? Owning the libs? LOL! Seems like you "own" the libs only in your mind.

    In reality, you are owned by Carlson, who is doing the bidding for the elites by keeping the serfs fighting each other like mortal enemies. Divide and conquer is the strategy. If you think that Carlson is honest and is on your side, think again. Just like Trump, he couldn't give a dam# about his adoring fans, other than the attention he gets from them.

    Not only that but Carlson, in a pre-trump era would have been on the “watch list” as an enemy of the state

    You think that caring about Blacks and minorities means that you must vote for them if running? Their qualifications, policies or personality shouldn't matter at all, just vote for them because they are Black or a minority?

    Of course he is an enemy of the state now because he dares to attack the ruling class that supports the democrat party. That is the strategy. Destroy any opposition speech for one party dictatorial rule. Apparently you agree with it.

    Some dumb conspiracy theory about Russia again? That has all been proven wrong but Hillary-DNC collusion has been proven. Go ahead start a thread. I'll participate. The DNC purchased dirt on Trump(None true) from Russia for $5M. Joe Biden's crack head son got a $3.5M wire from Russia! Start a thread go for it.
