+ going soft on immigration. that's more of the Fuentes side of things though.

I'm as upset about immigration as the Middle East.

1. War with Iran and fake justifications after claiming the earlier bombing was enough to take out their nuclear sites.

2. Epstein files gaslighting. It made no sense. Lutnick's name came up few too many times who was put him in charge of the commerce.It's amazing of all the people in US he couldn't find someone not tied to Epstein gate.

3. Throwing everyone under the bus who challenged non-release of Epstein files. He threw some of his most loyal long-term supporters in favor of Lady G, Levine and Jigsaw. MTG was a ride-or-die since 2015 and he just defamed and discarded her like trash.

4. Shitting on his long term supporters/endorsers/voters because they can't go along with gas lighting. It's a sign of a terrible character, which was always suspect to begin with. Nobody accused Don of being loyal to anyone.

And you constantly give him air time and further reach. Do you wake up and search for Tucker news?

What to make of all these recent MAGA defections.


Marjorie Taylor Greene - mental illness
Tucker Carlson - money, mental instability
Megyn Kelly - money, Catholicism
Candace Owens - money, Catholicism
Alex Jones - longstanding mental instability, Catholicism

As opposed to endorsing Loomer, Levine, Shapiro, Lady G, Ted Cruz who are above being bribed or being "unstable". LOL

Some people just have principles and can stick by them. Even if it's just their brand, having truth and consistency be your "brand" is a good thing. I can accept that.

It's a much smaller segment than you try to assign to Tucker's viewer base. Some, but it's a minority.

Majority are independent/ crticially minded people who aren't swayed by the spiel, tweets, beefs or low level propaganda. I'd wager most of Tucker's viewer base, much like Jimmy Dore's base are religious agnostics, if you want to talk theology. I view Christian faith as a good moral compass but not as something you have to take literally. That same critical thinking approach extends to politics, I don't believe in saviors or infallible leaders. If leader's actions don't match his writings, count me out.

Frankly, conspiracy labeling is no longer as effective as they want it to be. After pizzagate, Trump/Russia coordinated insurrection, Jan 6 FBI operation, 2020 election inconsistency, COVID, Epstein file releases it's been very hard to weaponize "it's a conspiracy" angle to try and suppress critical thought. Granted, lower IQ more susceptible people go off the deep end with that, but it's probably healthier than being a normie who eats every narrative put out by whoever is "in charge".


Yeah, going from pro-Trump to pro-Aluha Akbar kind of destroys the hell out of that lie. It's just as bad as the never trumpers and democrats. Anti-Trump no matter how retarded it looks or sounds.

Elaborate.

As far as I can see it is about telling the truth and how it is.
Muslims havent' been a problem till Israel became a thing and got its hands on our foreign policy and started guiding legislation and media. Ironically every crisis in the ME ended up with Muslims flooding white countries with more of them. We don't need to fight a crusade when they're over there, but if backing Isralis causes them to flood here then there's a problem and it aint' the Muslims.

If you think maga is collapsing because of that list of people you’re wrong. Those are piss ants in the political world, probably why the anti maga crowd likes them.


Guess the concern is the amount of estimated viewership those represent and who's going to replace that going forward for the MAGA movement. It's not insignificant.

Some quick research...

Audience snapshot of major conservative media figures (public metrics):

• Tucker Carlson: 5.6M YouTube subscribers; ~67M views in the past month; podcast ~380K monthly listeners.

• Megyn Kelly: 4.1M YouTube subscribers; 3.1B+ total views; daily podcast ranks high on major platforms.

• Candace Owens: ~6M YouTube subscribers; ~1.4B total views; gained 9M+ followers across platforms in 2025.

• Alex Jones: Among Rumble’s top streamers with 1.26M hours watched in April 2026.

Asking simple questions is considered crashing out to boomers who would drop to their knees no questions asked if Trump said it would help Israel.

It’s not a binary decision. I don’t have to like Laura Loomer if I don’t like the new version of Tucker.

Dumbfricks.
