Tucker Carlson just got ripped to pieces
Lately, Tucker Carlson has found himself stuck trying to figure out how to defend Vladimir Putin in a way that’ll allow him to later claim he never supported Vladimir Putin. If that sounds overly convoluted, it’s the corner that Tucker has backed himself into, after having spent the past several years painting Trump ally Russia as the good guys, and Trump foe Ukraine as the bad guys.
Now Carlson says it’s an “awful thing” that he’s being accused of having spent the past week praising Putin. So our friends at Meidas Touch put together a jump cut showing exactly how thoroughly Carlson has recently praised Putin:
Tucker Carlson just said "it’s an awful thing" that people are saying he supported Russia and wondered, "Why are they saying it? It doesn’t make sense."

Congresman Eric Swalwell, a frequent target of Tucker Carlson’s unhinged ranting, shared the Meidas Touch video and added “Jackpot.”
