“You know, we’ll be tormented by it for a long time – I will be,” Tucker Carlson said. “And I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people. It was not intentional, that’s all I’ll say.”

Though Carlson in 1999 had referred to Trump as “the single most repulsive person on the planet”, he beat most pundits in calling for Trump to be taken seriously before he won his first presidency in 2016.

Trump recently published a social media post calling Carlson “a Low IQ person – Always easy to beat, and highly overrated!!!”

FFS now I agree with Trump ?

    YOU are the problem. If you keep telling politicians that you expect them to do nothing, that’s exactly what they’ll do. They just go back to their insider trading, and ignore you, like you told them to do. Don’t give them permission to be incompetent.

    We are in unprecedented times, and we will require unprecedented solutions. We absolutely cannot fall back on the same morally and legally bankrupt political policies traditions that led us here. If we manage to recover Congress and the White House AGAIN, then they will have the obligation to follow the mandate of the voters, and DO THEIR JOB!

    It’s not like they’ll have a choice. The government is in tatters now, imagine what it will be like in 2 years? The government will need to be completely rebuilt. Thousands of government workers will be invited back to their jobs. Entire agencies will have to be reformed, and MAGA hires and appointees investigated and fired or indicted. Nobody hired by MAGA can remain.

    As long as we have to rebuild, we can go in any direction we want. We don’t have to rebuild the same broken system that brought us to this point.

    And we absolutely can’t allow them to let MAGA off the hook, “for the good of the country.” America can’t recover, and can’t redeem itself in the eyes of its Citizens, the World, and History, until MAGA has been decisively crushed, and purged from our government, and society.
