It is weird when he’s done his podcasts calling ppl out then goes on war room this morning and say they’re all his friends and he supports them.

Viewers got tired of his "I've got a blockbuster story about to break soon so join me tomorrow and find out what it is, tick-tock, tick-tock" bull shite.

Typical "boy who cried wolf" so often he lost all credibility...

Tucker get it and could be a common place poster on this Board, as most here believe that American dominance (I.e. "empire") is on the wane. The deficit pretty much assures that, as the demographic changes demand more inflationary spending.

The USAID spending has formerly encouraged benefiting Nations to purchase our debt as they and the Transnational Progressives Leftists got a lot for their 'investment', albeit we are at a point where just the interest on the debt will crash the whole pseudo ponzi scheme. The Bond Markets can't fake it and the Nations which formerly profited will abandon the worthless USD like a kept woman who no longer gets paid. I know that Trump's plan is to bring back manufacturing and with it a solvent economy built on true productivity, but I'm not sure that the massive numbers of 'unemployable' people can cut it. And that doesn't even take into account the effects of AI and Robotics which will be far more cost efficient than problematic human labor.

Something big is coming any way we cut it. And that is where we usually jump into 'Religion'; me for sure. Guess we'll find out pretty quick, as the exponential socio-economics dynamics rapidly expand.

Trump should not associate himself with Carlson. He is a far right anti semitic IMO.


In which the overwhelming majority of Americans agree with about 90% of the things he says.

He has fallen far too much in love with himself

I don't agree with the American Empire part, we might be weakened but not the End. The Trump Presidency Part I totally agree with. If Trump betrays us and jumps on board with the Neocons like Lindsey Graham and John Bolton he will be finished. You are already seeing this sentiment on Twitter. Big time pushback for Neocon Don if he screws this up


It’s easy to say this but the reality is Trump is having to confront some very difficult issues not of his making regarding Iran, Israel, Ukraine, and Russia. There aren’t any really great choices.

Brah, just because someone is not in lockstep with someone else 100% of the time doesn't mean you can't be on the same trajectory as them.

That's exactly how we've wound up in the shitshow society we have now. It's a short list of ideological boxes having circle jerks with a bunch of yes-men.

Never trust a yes-man.

I don't listen to Tucker very much. He's become strident in some of his beliefs. I don't need any more strident.

So I should trust a guy who I watch every episode and he calls them out then goes on to say he still supports them? He clearly doesn’t which is fine, but he’s just confusing people. Do you watch his shows?

Probably the text messages saying he hates Trump. He was literally on the Fox airwaves saying one thing and texting his social circle the opposite at the same time.
Where does he go after that? Only the most gullible are still paying attention to him.

Yeah I don't really get it. I'm not a big podcast type and I understand a lot of people are so part of it is admittedly me.

But it just seems like he's gotten very clickbaity, lots of hyperbole and taking dramatic positions that I'm not even sure he believes. I don't fault him for platforming weird and perhaps unserious people - in the aggregate it's fine to have some nuts mixed in. But it's almost like he decided he had to constantly push the envelope and go way overboard to survive on his own brand (and I don't think that's true).

And this morning he said he fully supports Trump on war room. He even said he still supports the guys who he called out and they’re still his friends like Cruz and Levin. I said he’s just confusing people because he has good shows but contradicts himself.

My first post in this thread I said he’s could run for president and win. Nobody is turning on him we’re just pointing out how he’s been shifty when he makes claims then contradicts himself. You’d enjoy nothing more.
