Tucker Carlson tells his white viewers that them black folks are coming for them.
Well, for Compromat to work, you need a gutless weasel.
Of all the Trump ass-kissers, Graham seems to have tarnished his reputation the most (since he started with a halfway decent one)
Susan Collins might be a close second.
I was watching John Oliver just last night where he calls Carlson a professional alarmist.
Fox news is now backpedaling on Carlson’s comment. They’re now saying “When he said they were coming for you, he meant they were coming for Democratic politicians.”
“Oh, was our dog whistle too loud? Never mind, we never said what we said”
I guess they thought of the “It was only a joke” narrative, but that did not work.
OK, so who’s “they” supposed to be, then? Makes pretty much no sense at all the way FOX seems to be spinning it.
It does not have to make any sense. At all.
Fox might as well say: “Well, obviously, the lefties did not understand Carlson’s comment because purple monkey dishwasher.”
Gaslighting is de rigueur.
The shit didn’t fall far from the asshole. Don Jr.'s sheep-hunting trip cost taxpayers at least $75K in Secret Service protection alone.
“They” are bad boys, of course. As in “Whachu gonna do when they come for you?”
Some woman Loreal (the cosmetics company) hired apparently said that racism was inherited. As Fox News commentators are wont to do, Tucker Carlson found a quote from a nobody, and represented it as mainstream liberal dogma. Nothing new about that.
Except he got a little carried away in his monologue tonight, and at the 8 minute mark said, “Sin cannot be inherited. That’s insane.”
Thereby saying Jesus died for nothing. The basic premise of Christianity is that all people have inherited Adam’s sin, and the only way to expunge it was for Jesus to die on the cross.
I expect crickets from his evangelical followers, but I’m making some popcorn anyway.
Why protection? Were the sheep armed?
You are labouring under the misapprehension that Trump’s evangelical base has one single scintilla of knowledge about the bible or theology. They don’t have a clue about original sin. Their bible says to kill the gays and that making money is terrific.
Their Bible also says that Catholics are evil because they only do what their priests say, instead of reading the Bible. They know that, because that’s what their preachers tell them.
Isn’t there also something about the Pope?
My evangelical grandmother told me that Catholics won’t go to heaven because they pray to idols.
Oh, and don’t get them started on us Lattrer-day Saints!
Revelation 27:9
And lo, didst the Pontiff venture unto the sylvan wilderness, and did so wander thither and yon until, at once, with a great hue and cry, came to pinch a loaf upon the cruft and bracken
That should be Latter-day Saints in my post above.
My understanding is that the Pope and his personal clutch of bishops are…trying to take over the world.
Also, I hope Junior ate that sheep. That’s a lot of mighty tasty endangered sheep meat, there, shame to waste it.
And that all [del]fetuses, fertilized eggs. embryos[/del] babies (same thing) have to be born, but once they’re born, they’re on their own. Food, medical care, child care, education-- HA! Shoulda thoughta that before that roll in the hay! What do you think we are, a bunch of commie socialists?? Your kid–your problem!
