Nothing on Tucker leaving the Republican Party? (Please delete if duplicate) Carlson Ditches Republican Party

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson dropped a bombshell announcement last week that has sent shockwaves across the political world, with potential implications for the MAGA movement and the GOP as a whole.

During an appearance on the “Can’t Be Censored” podcast, which was released on Friday, Carlson revealed that he is done with the GOP after 35 years of support.

In his rant, he accused the GOP of putting the interests of a foreign country over its own citizens, calling it “immoral.” Any guesses which nation he is referring to?

Carlson closed by predicting that many others would soon follow him out of the Republican Party.

I'm sure he think it did.

These people are really out of their rabbit arse minds. They believe the world revolves around them.

Well when he turned heel and started attacking Trump and MAGA I think most assumed he wasn’t going to walk the path of a republican anymore.

Who is he going to affiliate with?

He’s not a fit for the dems?

There are people who still believe the GOP serves the interests of our country?

None of the politicians do

Why does he have to affiliate with anyone?

They aren’t very good and the other major alternative is far worse.

You nailed it. He is self important. This isnt a bombshell. I quit being a republican so many years ago I forget.

Big whoopie flip. All's this does is give dems and nevertrumpers fodder to say Tucker hates Trump.
True MAGA are mostly independents.

Certainly not muzzie apologists.

He is turning into an MTG attention whore.

Not really a surprise. I suspect others will begin distancing themselves. But it won’t be anything overwhelming in my opinion.

As usual, I reserve the right to change my mind based on additional information.

Seriously, I had zero clue this happened other than seeing it on TD.
I guess Trump should just pack up his shite and receive a free T-shirt on the way out the door.
Y'all got him this time.

I liked Tucker when he wasn’t such a whiny bitch about everything.

He doesn’t see that everything takes work to get us out of the hole of insanity the last administration placed upon us.

He has lately been very annoying to listen to.

He didn’t need to announce his departure. Probably had to so he can run with Massie as an independent ticket.

I figured this happened a while back, so I don't really see it as breaking news. He will eventually land on being loosely associated with the Democrats.

Something happens to these people when they leave legitimate organizations and then move into the "engagement realm". The only thing Tucker cares about now is retweets, likes, dislikes, ragebait posters, and going viral. His point of view is related to moving these needles - nothing more, nothing less.

He, like his former legit counterparts, have become the National Enquirer. He may say something you like and you'll "like" it. But when he says something you don't like, and you start firing up the "TUCKER - YOU'RE A frickING IDIOT BECAUSE blah blah blah..." well, he REALLY likes that more.

I certainly do understand his disdain for the GOP, but - He's going to vote for the Party of Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer and Tim Walz? Not to mention that idiot John Kerry??

Really, Tucker?
