Tucker Carlson's extremist recommendation to Republicans: 'The US should bomb Mexico'

[peppertree]

During the Family Leadership Summit in Des Moines, Iowa, former television host Tucker Carlson suggested that Mexico was a bigger threat to the United States than Russia, as well as proposing to “bomb” the country to crack down on drug trafficking.

Throughout the event that took place on Friday, July 14, Tucker Carlson interviewed six candidates for the presidential candidacy of the Republican Party.

The tensest moment of the interview with Tim Scott was when Carlson, who has made comments in favor of Russian President Vladimir Putin, questioned why the United States sees the Kremlin as a threat and not Mexico.

Tucker Carlson later interviewed Asa Hutchinson, the governor of Arkansas, to whom he suggested: “Why not bomb the Mexican cartels?” - an act of war against an allied country.

1. Well now, does he really believe that, or just saying it to get attention?

We all already know that he admitting to saying stuff on Fox that he didn't really believe.

He's such an asshole.

3. That's the worst part: at least half the Republican base wants it - or he wouldn't pretend he agrees

That's what often missed in the coverage of the GOP's fascist slide: that it mostly reflects their voters.

No surprise to those of us who grew up in the Deep South.

2. Sure

Let's use Tuckems as the bomb.

4. We could use frozen Swanson dinners - at Swanson's expense, of course

Let'im put his money where his mouth is.

5. And while they are there they can strafe the potential immigrants headed toward the border.

A win, win...

6. It would be at the top of most GOP voters' wish list, no doubt

"We need a president with guts!" is usually code for just that.

7. Every country south of the Rio Grande...

…hates, distrusts, or just doesn’t like the U.S. because of our intervention in their lives and affairs economically, politically, and esp. militarily, going back to the 17th century.

Tucker (and Trump) again prove that mistrust/hate is valid.
