Tucker Carlson says he'll no longer support the Republican Party
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.)

He should go jump into a fire
Fuck him, anyway. His damage has been done.
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.
Color me skeptical in the EXTREME; I still remember after Trump's 2016 election when that rat Glenn Beck cried crocodile tears and lamented his own role in the rise of right-wing nutjobbery, but you know he got back on that horse REAL quick when it turned out there was still money in it.
I forgot about Glenn Beck. Is that whack job Michael savage still around?
how about Limbaugh? :3
just in time for Krasnov to declare a new party after the "election"
It's because he wants to start a Giga Republican Party
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.
Too little, too late. He will always be a piece of shit.
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.
person, career bad, runs out of relevance, says surprising thing to get headline
Ann Coulter Richard Spencer and this guy
He's gearing up for his own presidential bid
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.
Russian mouthpiece wants attention. Stop giving it to him.
Oh, you mean Tucker "any reasonable viewer arrives with an appropriate amount of skepticism about the statements he makes" Carlson?
Only Nazis support Republicans.
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.
Supporting Nazi policy makes you a Nazi.
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
then we have different definitions of "Nazi"
I mean, they signed up. You didn't have to be a nazi to be German
Fucken clown
Not conservative enough for him huh? Or it's not the correct version of the conservatism.
i asked, and he thinks they're puckering the wrong sphincter
Him starting his own party i don't think is the third party anyone wants but it might be the one we get.
i mean i wish
ross perottucker carlson all the luck in his political aspirations.i swear we had one more in between but i forget
Rats are starting to leave the ship.
MTG did her move at the perfect moment. She resigned from Congress when she could have stayed and fought. I expect to see her doing a lot of TV appearances as the midterms heat up.
Get kirked
Is this the Overton window being moved a bit when a "reasonable" right party pops up and says racist shit but with less angry words?
We already have that party. He wants one that's even farther right than the Republicans.
Sure, he says that, but until he actually endorses a bunch of good candidates, this should be taken with a few boulders of salt.
More likely is that he still supports the same evil morons he always has, but now he prefaces it with a "you all know I'm no blind Republican supporter, BUT"...
He's trying to backdoor a false sense of balance to fake his way into credibility.
I really think the only way out of this mess is to start fresh. Not vote Democrat, vote for something brand new that's better than both of the old choices. Hopefully get rid of the two party system entirely.
So, revolution then?
I worry, after seeing someone else mention it somewhere, the whole apology / change in tune is actually all build-up for a presidential run.
I see it as more of seeing the writing on the wall that this regime is f***** over and f***** up, and trying to distance himself so he can remain relevant in some way. It's all about the grift.
Doubt
Yeah ok Cucker. I'll believe it when I see it.
The "Just asking questions" guy says it wasn't intentional? Must be true then.
Tucker and Snowden are both untrustable at this point for the same reason: Russia is too involved in their lives to believe that their words are entirely their own. Every opinion from either of them will get an asterisk in my brain for as long as I live.
If Tucker backed up his claims with proof, then you wouldn't need to trust his motives.
Proof or not, Tucker's involvement does not add credibility.
Not supporting either wing of the same bird is the only rational option.
