If ONLY there was SOMETHING Trump’s Biggest Supporter in Every Election COULD have Done! If ONLY someone had TOLD him about Trump! If ONLY there was some HISTORICAL PROOF that Trump is a No Good Conman who can’t even RUN a Casino! Tucker had NO IDEA!
So, should he go back to that? Or, you know, could leaving MSM possibly allowed for some clarity.
I’m not forgiving his past. I’m allowing for the possibility of reconciliation. I’m also hoping he brings people with him.
I appreciate your generosity, and I want to share it. I’m open to the possibility.
I think it’s far more likely that just as he was on the forefront of the insane right wing unltra-conservative movement when he was on CNN, I think he’s looking a few steps down the road and knows that Trump’s time is coming to an end - either through term limits and/or death from old age and poor health. And possibly effectively sooner if the mid-terms go poorly. So that there’s about to be a massive power vacuum on the right. He’s distancing himself from what is about to be a collapse of the party. He knows it’ll take a couple of years to build up a viable alternative to Trump’s party, so he’s starting those wheels.
Rats from the sinking ship and all that.
No doubt. I’ll pose a question: if we all are so cynical that we can’t allow for a redemption arc, what are we fighting for?
I want us to strive for a ST:TNG reality.
That said, your scenario is more realistic. I am not a tragic optimist; truly, a skeptical pessimistic is a better description. But I will not shut anyone out if they’re honestly contrite.
I don’t know if he is. I’m willing to gamble on it because in this case, we’ve already lost. Whatever the situation, he’s on the right side of the Israeli conundrum. I do think he’s got this country as his priority. Not Israel.
I’m no nationalist; that’s a sick mentality. But I’d rather someone not be Israel first.
I hope I’m not wrong in wanting him to reconcile.
Tucker had his chance at redemption when Jon Stewart got Crossfire shut down. Instead he stayed away for a couple years and came back worse than ever but without the bow tie.
