Tucker is a prostitute, not because he likes it but because he likes money. No need to dig for deeper motives.

An insult to well-serving prostitutes across America. Carlson has ambition which brings status and money, and that's quite different than prositution. If merely seeking money is prostitution, then most Americans qualify, but it isn't. Prostitution can a mutually beneficial free market transaction between consenting adults, but politics is never that.

This is about the old fashioned idea of 'honor'. Exchanging your 'honor' for something else. Most Americans are not willing to engage in 'dishonourable behaviour'.

I got a good chuckle from that.

A prostitute....just like vance!

Well, in this administration, there are 1) prostitutes and 2) those who get their sexual satisfaction from power (Miller comes to mind), and I think Vance belongs in that category. The extremely dangerous ones.

That is a slander against prostitutes.

I always feel sorry for people who have to sell themselves—body or principles— to survive, Tucker seems to be one of them. One needs to be wary of people with quick insults and sarcasm for another persons philosophy, I am inclined to suspect a shallow intellect in such cases.

I won’t forget how he whined about losing Fox’s “brand” when the ratings began to drop after they reported the 2020 results honestly. Tuckers career is a living metaphor for the entire right wing media ecosystem, which involves selling bullshit to simpletons on a mass scale.

America's war on shame

It's audience capture. Tucker obviously believes, with some merit, that America has become so decadent and debased, that the only sensible thing left is to make as much money as possible from the slag.

It's not honorable but at least the pay is good.

Now I want to read the Lamumba book.
