    Tucker Carlson is absolute cynical swine who believes in nothing other than making money and having an audience. He’s doing the same thing that always happens to ousted conservative pundits/politicians, he’s trying to triangulate on something that would make him an outsider but still resonate with hogs. And since he’ll never be allowed back into the FoxNews fourth estate club, this is the only option he has. He can’t keep being the same old Tucker, there are a million of those. He’s gotta position himself as somehow different than those standard TV media people.

    i think sometimes people here forget how big Tucker was. He was getting 4 million people watching him per night, and then tens of million more would watch clips of his on Facebook or whatever. He’s not getting those sorts of numbers back unless he starts getting wacky with it
