Why would Putin want to humiliate his own Russian stooge? My MSNBC brainworm addled cerebral cortex can’t process this.


The reason could be similar to why R/conservatives humiliate themselves for Trump.

Probably a number of reasons why but I'll suggest that Putin knows he has the power in that exchange and Tucker will eat sh!t for the chance to stay relevant.

If you are unable to think clearly, I'd suggest seeing a doctor.


Tucker routinely has more views than any one of the cable news networks. He has videos on X with 100M+ views and unlike cable news anchors he doesn’t get paid a salary and makes waaay more money off of his own content than they could ever dream of making. LOL at him needing to interview Putin to stay relevant. He has more views than any other cable news host and it’s not even close.


Number of views on Xitter should be taken with a grain of salt. Tucker was already rich so it's unlikely that money is the prime driver. Tucker doesn't really respect his viewers since he'll openly lie to them on his "news" show; he is an entertainer after all! Getting kicked out of Fox was humiliating and exposed his dishonesty. I'd say Tucker wants to prove his worth to the "coastal elite" circles he wails about.


You think that Tucker’s show is an attempt to appease coastal elites? That's a fascinating take.


Tucker doesn’t need the approval of coastal elites. He is a coastal elite! That’s why these blue bloods types who fly Ukraine flags, post Hate Has No Home Here signs, or do whatever other type of sloganeering to fit in, hate him so much. He calls out their BS, which he’s been surrounded by since birth. They view him as a class traitor and he wears that badge with honor. It’s why his favorite president was Teddy Roosevelt, another child of privilege who pissed off people in power and called his own tribe out for their corruption.


Yeah, he’s such a maverick lol. Sorry you’re gullible. He’s not some coastal elite rebel. He’s an opportunist. If you’ll recall he slowly metastasized over time. He went from somewhat conservative to full blown MAGA. It boosted his ratings tremendously. Now he’s just full blown traitor. Sorry you rubes can’t see it.


By this logic everyone who doesn’t support the occupation of Gaza, and a bigger ally than Ukraine (Israel), is a traitor, correct? I thought Love it Leave It, moronic / jingoistic nationalism was a right wing thing but I guess Blue MAGA is all on board as well. Sad.

Has Tucker made it back to the United States yet or did Putin decide to keep him while they check out the latest CIA operative rumor?

It’s cool how Trump has flipped everything. Now the anti war edgy journalism is coming from traditional American side. The leftists are now the warmongering stodgy and easily offended side.

If you follow the progression of things, Tucker has overtly advanced a neo-isolationist perspective on Russia’s attack on Ukraine the entire time. He’s doing that because he knows it’s popular to do that on the right. Evangelicals like Russia (anti-gay, “traditional values” etc) and Trump felates Putin at every turn. So basically this interview was more right wing pandering. I know you don’t get it. Or heck maybe you’re some paid shill in a room somewhere writing sympathetic sht. This is the internet. Who knows.

Idolizing a dictator conducting a war of conquest is anti-war?

Tucker got humiliated in front of the world; Republicans are trying to soothe themselves.

They’re not so much “anti-war” as they are isolationist. They remind me of the “know nothing” party. They hate the liberal change they see in America so much, that Trump supporter republicans actually empathize with Russia. They like its anti-gay, Christian, strong authoritarian because they can see the world ia multi polar now. It’s basically China and Russia and other authoriam countries and then the other pole is western democracy/EU type places

Except the Trump types side with the authoritarian side instead of this split. So of course they aren’t bent out of shape with what Putin is doing. Theyre deathly afraid that liberal values will win. They see religion in decline in the west. They see transgender rights. They see “immoral behavior” and abortion and women’s rights and they hate it.

Abortions are easier to get in Russia than in Texas.

He is basically a mouthpiece for Russia. He isn’t looking to “tell the truth”. American conservatives will eat it up. The interview will increase the polarization in our country. The sad part is I realize half the country is extremely conservative and probably look to Russia as a source of hope. It’s a place where gays are vilified because it’s a place of “traditional values”. Where a strongman calls the shots. It’s a Christian nationalists dream.

This whole interview is traitorous and bullsht. All it will do is further erode support for additional assistance to Ukraine and show our WW2 allies we have issues.


I haven't read the responses to this thread yet, but you do realize that Russia was our WWII ally? Ands some (many?) historians views the battle of Leningrad (where 2 million Russians died) is what defeated Hitler.

Yes, everyone knows that. It doesn’t change the fact that Russia and the GOP are in cahoots with one another, that Putin is conducting an immoral war, and that Tucker went over there to further the shared agenda between Russia and the GOP.

Well, the OP didn't seem to realize that we were once allies with Russia (see the original post). Alliances shift overtime. Sure our European allies want us to protect them from Russian expansion, but it's not immoral for us to look at our own national interests and decide that actually our resources are better spent on our own needs.

Russia was not an ally, they were the enemy of our enemy and we gave them some help. Winston Churchill and others repeatedly talked about how Russia was also a threat. General Patton wanted to keep the tanks rolling all the way to Moscow.

I think a Russian troll farm is writing on this forum. Sad.
