I can’t stand the thought of Tucker and his family being dragged through the Democrat party and their corrupt media’s perverse character assassinations, fake news hoaxes, and violence that will entail.....

The party of those who think COVID 19 is the flu and who firmly believe know- nothingism and ignorance are to be embraced and placed on a pedestal.

The RINOS:

*any Republican party member who holds a different opinion or thought from Donald Trump's know-nothing schtick and is courageous enough to voice it. Any conservative who places country over Trump.

Got it. Tragic.
nope, there's more than that.

the scary thing is wondering whether you believe half of what you wrote, or are just trying to get gullible people to believe it.

Haven't looked at the state of union lately, eh?

And another entertainer sure as hell doesn't sound like any kind of a step forward.

As a liberal I strongly encourage the Republican Party to nominate Tucker Carlson for president in 2024.

Tucker Carlson is one warped individual, a nabob of negativism.

It makes sense Trump supporters would like nothing more than a talking head who panders to and churns up grievances, real or imagined.

Sorry Charlie, I am unimportant here. And I have no illusions of converting any Republican to this old Democrat's way of thinking. Why are you trying to make this about an individual poster and not the factions of the Republican Party that its members tout? The 2 factions that the CD posters broadcast, on this forum, anyway.

The excitement and enthusiasm that the Trumpers have for another loud-mouthed, know- nothing, crybaby bully is after all the title of the thread. It is clear which faction of the GOP embraces and promotes Tuck. To recap, it appears to be the Trump faction of the Republican Party that supports Carlson:

The Trumper Wing:*full of anger and resentment and white racial grievance *those who are anti-black lives and against equality under the law* the wing of white nationalism and devotion to the second rise of The Confederacy * devotees of bigotry, misogyny, xenophobia, racism and anti-science and anti-education * those who think COVID 19 is the flu and who firmly believe know- nothingism and ignorance are to be embraced and placed on a pedestal.

If there are more than the 2 factions ( Trumpers & RINOS: aka as any Republican Party member who holds a different opinion or thought from Donald Trump's know-nothing schtick, and who is courageous enough to voice it * any conservative who places country over Trump ) go ahead and enlighten us.

I think its a good idea to nominate a MSM personality who is paid to hump Trump's leg.
