I loathe him so much. He really has a talent for speaking to rubes. His whole, “why should I dislike X? X hadn’t done anything to me, didn’t call me a racist,” perfectly speaks to his gullible idiots and verifies that it’s the world that is wrong and they’re correct and normal.
The heir to a massive family fortune acts like a man-of-the-people while wearing tailored suits and big-upping the wealthy and influential.
And his working-class Republican fans eat it up.
Just baffling.
Stupid is as stupid does.
Tucker [confused fart-smelling face]: "Is diversity truly our strength? What if I go to my hometown and there are people speaking Spanish on the streets? What if I go get a haircut and the barber cannot speak English?"
I can't stand his "another person is talking" face. Close your damn mouth, pretend to listen and then unleash the torrent of verbal diarrhea that you invited your guest-prop on to receive.
Diversity has never been anyone's strength. It's an oxymoronic phrase. Straight diversity & random shit doesn't automatically result in a stronger, superior, or better product; it is carefully calculated & rationed components that work towards an agreed upon, common goal that result in that result in strength or advantage.
"Diversity is our strength" is an unsubstantiated, mealy-mouthed, dumb as hell phrase to make everybody feel good. It's not American, and frankly, not based in reality.
Threatening nuclear annihilation is all fun and games, but calling someone racist? That's crossing the line.
The thing that freaked me out the most when I first heard him was how much he spoke like that villain from 1984 (I forgot his name). With doublespeak and shit, really freaked me out
