Oh, please Og, let’s hope this time it sticks. Of all the stars in the constellation of evil shitheads, none deserve more to lose everything they own than this fuckface. Give him a refrigerator box and point him to the nearest bridge alldamnready.

I’m cautiously optimistic, because last time they stopped the sale and the court appointed someone to handle it; it’s that court-appointed person that has accepted this proposal. Now it’s awaiting a judge to confirm, but I’m hoping that’s a legal formality.

Will he have a rat AND a curtain rod to cook it on?

I’d be okay with that, actually. Unlike his ilk, I at least _aspire_ to having empathy.

Bullshit

He hasn’t lost a single minute of sleep over it. He’s always been an opportunist and this is just his latest bid now that the numbers suggest it might be a better play

Buckley Carlson calls Kamala Harris “cackling cameltoe” and they both laugh. Tucker hasn’t changed one bit. Scum of the Earth.

Of course. This should send a number of Trumpists into a tizzy, to be sure.

I agree- it’s just switching bullshit tracks at this point.

His previous bullshit spew was “not intentional” he says.

Sure. Someone MADE him do it. Not intentional at all.

It’s right there in TheWrap’s subheadline,

_“I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people, it was not intentional,” the conservative commentator adds_

Sure, Tucker, sure. Pull the other one.

I use Tucker as sort of a guide for what Russia is trying to do. He is completely a tool of Russian propaganda now. So, if he’s now anti-Trump, that means Putin is anti-Trump.

In other words, I suspect the military is unwilling to follow illegal orders to bomb civilians or use a nuke, and has made this abundantly clear to him.

Trump’s random capitalization is ridiculous. Remember when education was considered important in this country? Every Republican you know has put their boots on and stomped on this country’s brain.

Nukes, most likely; they’ve never shown any reluctance about bombing civilians.

That’s extremely plausible.

Conventional bombs are dropped all the time. The last time a nuke was dropped in war was over 70 years ago. There is a reason why everyone is reluctant to do such a thing.
