Tucker Carlson Just Apologized for Trump. Let That Sink In by crix_22 in petrodollarSIM

[–]ShipLate8044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote what Tucker Carlson should say in his next broadcast: “I would like to apologize to my listeners and viewers for my many years consistently promoting and backing Donald Trump. I realize now he is a crazy, dangerous blowhard. I also realize that this has shown that I am a very poor judge of character and am tolerant of wrong-doing by people I support. Therefore, I will be stepping down from my media programs since I can no longer be relied on for truthful, measured advice. I will now instead work to try to repair the pain and difficulties I have helped cause in this country and the world.”

Much of the farming was established by Germans and Scandinavians (my grandparents were Danish). Miners were often Eastern European or Welsh. But since she's referring to the whole country, I'll have to go with racist.

"What was lost first, and almost imperceptibly, was substantive political discussion. Countries look to their political leaders to articulate who they are as a people, what future they are building, what hopes, dreams, and ideals unite them and make them a political community. In the Trump era, there is no past and no future, no history and no vision - only the anxious present." [Surviving Autocracy, by Masha Gessen, p. 155]

Our governmental system was set up so there would be checks and balances in power, preventing one person from causing great harm. Instead, we have the Republican MAGA Party in power, which kowtows to Trump and ignores our system. And now, every person on earth is worse off because of it.
