Last week Tucker Carlson asked the prominent names announced or anticipated to run for the 2024 Republican nomination to provide their policy toward Ukraine. Many of the candidates responded, a few did not. Nikki Haley, Chris Sununu, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton and Asa Hutchinson did not respond at all.
President Trump and Governor Kristi Noem were the only responses that answered each question specifically. The remaining candidates ignored some, gave obtuse poll-tested responses to other points or just ignored the central element of the questions they were uncomfortable with. The responses were then posted on Twitter by Tucker Carlson:
President DONALD TRUMP – “Like inflation and numerous other self-inflicted wounds and mistakes made over the past two years, Russia would definitely not have raided and attacked Ukraine if I was your President. In fact, for four years they didn’t attack, nor did they have any intention of doing so as long as I was in charge. But the sad fact is that, due to a new lack of respect for the U.S., caused at least partially by our incompetently handled pullout from Afghanistan, and a very poor choice of words by Biden in explaining U.S. requests and intentions (Biden’s first statement was that Russia could have some of Ukraine, no problem!), the bloody and expensive assault began, and continues to this day.
That is all history, but how does it end, and it must end, NOW! Start by telling Europe that they must pay at least equal to what the U.S. is paying to help Ukraine.
They must also pay us, retroactively, the difference. At a staggering 125 Billion Dollars, we are paying 4 to 5 times more, and this fight is far more important for Europe than it is for the U.S. Next, tell Ukraine that there will be little more money coming from us, UNLESS RUSSIA CONTINUES TO PROSECUTE THE WAR.
The President must meet with each side, then both sides together, and quickly work out a deal. This can be easily done if conducted by the right President. Both sides are weary and ready to make a deal. The meetings should start immediately, there is no time to spare. The death and destruction MUST END NOW! Properly executed, this terrible and tragic War, a War that never should have started in the first place, will come to a speedy end. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!”
♦ Is opposing Russia in Ukraine a vital American national strategic interest?
“No, but it is for Europe. But not for the United States. That is why Europe should be paying far more than we are, or equal.”
♦ What specifically is our objective in Ukraine, and how will we know when we’ve achieved it?
“Our objective in Ukraine is to help and secure Europe, but Europe isn’t helping itself. They are relying on the United States to largely do it for them. That is very unfair to us. Especially since Europe takes advantage of us on trade and other things.”
♦ What is the limit of funding and materiel you would be willing to send to the government of Ukraine?
“That would strongly depend on my meeting with President Putin and Russia. Russia would have never attacked Ukraine if I were President, not even a small chance. Would have never happened if I were President, but it has. I would have to see what the direction in which Russia is headed. I want them to stop, and they will, depending on the one that delivers that message. But with everything said, Europe must pay. The United States has spent much more than Europe, and that is not fair, just, or equitable. If I were President, that horrible war would end in 24 hours, or less. It can be done, and it must be done– now!”
♦ Should the United States support regime change in Russia?
“No. We should support regime change in the United States, that’s far more important. The Biden administration are the ones who got us into this mess.”
♦ Given that Russia’s economy and currency are stronger than before the war, do you believe that U.S. sanctions have been effective?
“No, they have not been effective. Just the opposite. They drove Russia, China and Iran into an unthinkable situation.”
♦ Do you believe the United States faces the risk of nuclear war with Russia?
“It depends on who the President of the United States is. At the moment, with Biden as president, absolutely yes. He says and does all the wrong things at the wrong time.” (link)
Florida Governor RON DESANTIS – “While the U.S. has many vital national interests – securing our borders, addressing the crisis of readiness within our military, achieving energy security and independence, and checking the economic, cultural, and military power of the Chinese Communist Party – becoming further entangled in a territorial dispute between Ukraine and Russia is not one of them. The Biden administration’s virtual “blank check” funding of this conflict for “as long as it takes,” without any defined objectives or accountability, distracts from our country’s most pressing challenges.
Without question, peace should be the objective. The U.S. should not provide assistance that could require the deployment of American troops or enable Ukraine to engage in offensive operations beyond its borders. F-16s and long-range missiles should therefore be off the table. These moves would risk explicitly drawing the United States into the conflict and drawing us closer to a hot war between the world’s two largest nuclear powers. That risk is unacceptable.
A policy of “regime change” in Russia (no doubt popular among the DC foreign policy interventionists) would greatly increase the stakes of the conflict, making the use of nuclear weapons more likely. Such a policy would neither stop the death and destruction of the war, nor produce a pro-American, Madisonian constitutionalist in the Kremlin. History indicates that Putin’s successor, in this hypothetical, would likely be even more ruthless. The costs to achieve such a dubious outcome could become astronomical.
The Biden administration’s policies have driven Russia into a de facto alliance with China. Because China has not and will not abide by the embargo, Russia has increased its foreign revenues while China benefits from cheaper fuel. Coupled with his intentional depletion of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and support for the Left’s Green New Deal, Biden has further empowered Russia’s energy-dominated economy and Putin’s war machine at Americans’ expense.
Our citizens are also entitled to know how the billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars are being utilized in Ukraine.
We cannot prioritize intervention in an escalating foreign war over the defense of our own homeland, especially as tens of thousands of Americans are dying every year from narcotics smuggled across our open border and our weapons arsenals critical for our own security are rapidly being depleted.” (link)
Former VP MIKE PENCE – Is opposing Russia in Ukraine a vital American national strategic interest?
“When the United States supports Ukraine in their fight against Putin, we follow the Reagan doctrine, and we support those who fight our enemies on their shores, so we will not have to fight them ourselves. There is no room for Putin apologists in the Republican Party. This is not America’s war, but if Putin is not stopped and the sovereign nation of Ukraine is not restored quickly, he will continue to move toward our NATO allies, and America would then be called upon to send our own.
Vladimir Putin has revealed his true nature, a dictator consumed conquest and willing to spend thousands of lives for his commitment to reestablish the Greater Russian Empire. Anyone who thinks Putin will stop at Ukraine’s border is not owning up to the reality of who Putin is. We need to be clear-eyed about the Russian threat: that Georgia, the Crimea, and Ukraine are merely at the top of Putin’s lists, they are not the only countries he’s aiming for. And by supporting Ukraine, we have told China we will support Taiwan, should they follow Russia in an attempt to invade.”
What specifically is our objective in Ukraine, and how will we know when we’ve achieved it?
“Victory for Ukraine, where Ukraine’s sovereignty and peace are restored as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the Biden administration slow walked aid to Ukraine, every response has been too slow from providing intelligence to Ukraine, to hammering Russia with sanctions, to providing military equipment and fighter jets to Ukraine.
Ukraine’s victory should be an unmistakable, undeniable defeat for Russia and its allies.”
What is the limit of funding and material you would be willing to send to the government of Ukraine?
“As a fiscal conservative, I do not believe in sending blank checks and want oversight of government spending at home and abroad. But withholding or reducing support will have consequences: If Putin is not stopped now and he moves into NATO-controlled territory, the cost will be far greater.”
Should the United States support regime change in Russia?
“That is a better question for the thousands of Russian citizens jailed for protesting the Russian invasion of Ukraine. As many as 200,000 Russian troops have been killed or wounded in Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, that question should be asked to those families grieving their loss, ask if they’d support a regime change.”
Given that Russia’s economy and currency are stronger than before the war, do you believe that U.S. sanctions have been effective?
“The Trump-Pence administration established a devastating sanctions program and was the toughest US administration on Russia since the Cold War. Sanctions against Russia could have had even more painful consequences if the Biden administration moved quicker with new sanctions and western Europe had heeded US warnings to look elsewhere for energy sources.
Russia’s economy and currency are not stronger than before the war. The Russian economy is in free-fall. The Russian ruble is still afloat because of the extremely costly measures Russia has taken to keep their currency at pre-war levels in the face of sanctions. Russia is currently being propped up by China, and if China withdraws their support, Putin could run out of money by as soon as 2024; Russia is not in a strong economic position. This war is costing Russia their economy, their military prowess, their position on the world stage, and it’s costing lives.”
Do you believe the United States faces the risk of nuclear war with Russia?
“Putin is still “the small and bullying leader of Russia,” his talk of nuclear war is a bullying tactic that he used at the start of the invasion. But Putin should know the United States will not be bullied. This administration has not led with strength on the world stage, but America is still a nation that believes peace comes through strength.” (link)
South Dakota Governor KRISTI NOEM – Q: Is opposing Russia in Ukraine a vital American national strategic interest?
A: “The primary external threat to the United States in Communist China. Our opposition to Russia has heightened this threat for a number of reasons. One, it’s pushing Russia into an alliance with China – meaning Russia may soon draw from China’s large weapon arsenal. Two, we’re weakening our own military by sending weapons to a corrupt country. And three, we’re taking our eyes off the ball and allowing China to put favors in their bank. This should be Europe’s fight, not ours. We should not waste taxpayer dollars at the risk of nuclear war.”
Q: What specifically is our objective in Ukraine, and how will we know when we’ve achieved it?
A: “The American people didn’t get us into this war – Joe Biden did. Biden has this fantasy that he can do the same kind of thing to Russia that Ronald Reagan did to the Soviet Union; that, somehow, through American military weight, we’re going to bring Putin to his knees. His fantasy is wasting a lot of American money and killing too many people.
If we had a President who pursued peace through strength, Putin never would have dared to invade Ukraine. The only way to avoid these kinds of conflicts is to project strength. That’s why voters must remove Biden and the Democrats from office.”
Q: What is the limit of funding and materiel you would be willing to send to the government of Ukraine?
A: “We’ve already over-extended ourselves in our largesse to Ukraine. And the Ukrainian government is not made up of angels – they have a long history of corruption scandals, and recent news indicates that this issue is ongoing.
The federal government is closing in on $200 billion in aid to Ukraine. We haven’t spent that much to protect our border in the last 5 years combined. We must question whether we should prop up a corrupt regime to our own financial detriment.”
Q: Should the United States support regime change in Russia?
A: “Not at this time, as it could lead to an even more destabilized Europe and cause escalation up the nuclear ladder.”
Q: Given that Russia’s economy and currency are stronger than before the war, do you believe that U.S. sanctions have been effective?
A: “The United States has come to rely far too heavily on financial sanctions as a weapon of deterrence. Now, nations that hate America are consciously moving away from the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
Sanctions against China, Iran, and Russia have bolstered the Russian ruble and enabled China to establish trade in Chinese money rather than in US dollars.
One of the worst side effects of these sanctions has been the skyrocketing cost of oil and natural gas in America and around the world. Russia is selling less of its oil and gas, but they are doing so at a much higher price.
It’s counterfactual to say that Russia’s economy is stronger in the wake of the war. The more appropriate phrase here is “more resilient.” Russia has ridden out the sanctions remarkably well, but its economy remains weak. And it’ll get sucked into the global recession that it helped cause.”
Q: Do you believe the United States faces the risk of nuclear war with Russia?
A: “The Biden regime is taking us quickly up the escalatory ladder with a series of provocative actions and statements. We cannot back down from any legitimate threat that Putin makes against the United States. We are closer now to the use of tactical nuclear weapons than we have ever been. That would be what Putin would use first. This is not about dropping “the big one” on New York or Los Angeles. Putin would slaughter thousands of souls in a contained fighting environment.” (link)
Senator TIM SCOTT – “You have Americans who are frustrated because of the lack of leadership on domestic issues that only exacerbates the situation we see today in Ukraine. Here’s where we need the president to lead: what is our nation’s vital interest in Ukraine? And it should start with degrading the Russian military is in our vital national interest.
In addition to that, we are not going to simply degrade the Russian military. We are gonna have accountability for every single dollar spent. There is no such thing as a blank check. We are going to make sure that there’s accountability. And the last point I’d make on the Ukraine front is that China has chosen a side. They are partnering, they are partnering with Putin, which means it’s enmity with us. China is a risk that continues to rise, an adversarial position they have taken against the American people. We should hear what they’re telling us. Believe them and act accordingly.” (link)
Texas Governor Greg Abbott – “President Biden’s blank check foreign policy in Ukraine has drawn nothing but ridicule and disdain from our adversaries and has diverted funding from essential needs in the United States. Throwing money at Ukraine with no accountability or objective is clearly failing.
Worse is that President Biden’s approach to Ukraine has been at the expense of underfunding, or ignoring, priorities at home. Before he sends any more money or assets to Ukraine’s border, he must enforce our immigration laws and secure our southern border.
As Governor of Texas, I am focused on responding to this Biden-made border crisis and delivering real results for Texans this legislative session.” (link)
.
Former Governor, Chris Christie – “Russia’s aggression against Ukraine is a national security issue that threatens our alliances and our standing in the world. Our objective is to assist Ukraine sufficiently to enable them to defeat Russian forces and restore their sovereignty. This effort is not about regime change in Russia; it is about respecting the sovereignty of free nations. Also, this is a proxy war being waged by Russia’s ally China against the United States. Due to their assistance to Russia and China’s recent action in the Middle East, it would be naive to call this anything but Chinese aggression. Our allies and our enemies are watching us. It is on us to assist our democratic allies in defending themselves against authoritarian aggression. If we do not, this aggression will spread and the void we leave will be filled by authoritarian regimes like China, Iran, North Korea and an empowered Russia if they triumph over Ukraine.” (link)
We asked every potential 2024 GOP presidential candidate to answer six key questions on the war in Ukraine. As promised, their full responses are below. pic.twitter.com/tjcM4w54cR
— Tucker Carlson (@TuckerCarlson) March 14, 2023
Navarro’s reaction to Tucker asking for this information.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/03/peter-navarro-who-does-tucker-think-he-is/
Any candidate for any office should be ready and willing to answer questions relative to that office from any voter or news agency.
Who does Peter Navarro think he is?
I read that earlier on Navarro’s Substack—thought the same thought as you.
Peter Navarro is a Trump Lieutenant who worked very hard for MAGA while being one of the few who entered the Campaign as a MAGA Advisor and continued in that capacity through the end of President Trump’s term.
Navarro continues to this day to assist and advise President Trump, as does Kash Patel, Steve Miller and others.
That’s who I think Peter Thinks HE IS.
I read Peter’s substack on this issue; he explained it well. I tend to agree with Peter, unless I see differently that is more convincing that he is on to something significant.
I really like Peter Navarro. There a reason they came after him.
Chris Christie, Bill Barr, and Mike Pence served President Trump as well. You believe them, too?
And are they still supporting Trump or MAGA?
They never supported MAGA and they never served Trump well.
Typo…so won’t post…
I disagree, especially after watching their behavior during his early administration and following through to the bitter end.
At this point, after much reading and researching, I strongly disagree.
Those 3 were Not Loyal. They were there to hold President Trump back from “draining the swamp”; they are certainly NOT MAGA; not by any stretch of the imagination.
I have NEVER trusted Christie, even when he was NJ Governor.
With regard to Bill Barr and Mike Pence; from the Bushie ERA…They were put in there to ‘control’ the Orange Man Bad. Pence is just another GW; I even like Dan Quayle better.
So, NO! I would never believe those 3 deep staters.
When did Navarro stb President Trump in the back? Navarro is true MAGA
stab
They never supported MAGA and they never served Trump well.
Navarro is fine but why did he call out Questioning candidates for office?
Tucker? who cares about him? Too many get wrapped up in discussing and not watching actions.
The action of questioning candidates is great! Anyone dispute that?
Navarro is MAGA, that’s who he is. Tucker is a media whore.
True. Tricker faked us out on the videos. Never give a man’s job to a kid.
Two years ago he was screaming he hated Trump, HATED, for complaining about the rigged 2020 elections.
I like Navarro, but he has a big ego and a thin skin, and while he did steller work in the administration, he has strengths, like finance, and weaknesses like dealing with people, knowing when to keep his mouth shut, and accepting that sometimes “the boss” ain’t gonna do what HE (Navarro) THINKS the boss should do.
His assessment of TC, and the dynamic with Fox may well be “spot on”, I have thought of the comparison to the Great Lou Dobbs, myself.
Like the Smothers Bros., as well. TC is “pushing the limits” of Fox, BECAUSE he has the ratings. If the ratings drop, he is cancelled.
If the sponsors pull advertising, he is cancelled.
And if he costs Fox too much, whether in $, or in pissing off TPTB, he WILL be cancelled.
But, I like what TC is exposing.
Just as you shouldn’t “shoot the messenger” that bears BAD tidings, you really don’t need to kiss the messenger, that’s spreading sunshine.
It’s the Sunshine I love.
I quacked for duck and got this:
https://thenetline.com/fox-news-anchors-that-got-fired/
Interesting list, names long forgotten…..
I guess you never watched FOX News. If you did you’d know this isn’t news at all. Just “Aggiegirl” trying to make a story out of nothing. Conservatives have known this since it happpened.
I don’t think Tucker cares if he is cancelled. He’s made his money. He has had his platform. He could do something else that would become as huge as he wanted it to be. Tucker is a free man.
It comes through loud and clear in this interview.
With delusions of grandeur.
Remember, he values his paycheck more…and who signs it?
Navarro could have said it better. You dont want to alienate people with the first words out of your mouth.
Tucker is asking the right questions and on a huge platform.
I repeat: Carlson’s job is not to support any candidate. So, NEVER EXPECT IT.
If you’ll notice Carlson makes clear his opinions on policies.
Let’s be real: Donald J. Trump’s personality make it hard for almost anyone who is in contact with him for long to like him personally UNLESS they are willing to overlook the behavior.
Remember when Trump was an early candidate and getting a lot of attention from the media?
Carlson, in a very “balanced” way, analyzed a few of Trump’s positions–one was the border (he agreed w/ Trump’s position on clamping down hard on illegal immigration) and one other issue I’ve since forgotten.
Carlson told the story of when he was at CNN years before. I can’t recall the story but I guess he and the panelists were discussing something and Trump’s name came up, something not serious.
Not too long later, Tucker got a surprising phone call from one Donald J. Trump (who, let’s face it, had always had antenna ears for any mention of his name on tv) whose first words to him were his traditional brag about his wealth: But I have lot more money than you, Carlson; I’m a billionaire.” Carlsons’s response was “I get that.”
Second DJT sentence: “and I can a lot more women to ____ than you ever will.” (as I recall, it was every bit as vulgar as I re-create here w/ my own words.)
Carlson said, “I learned then that the stories about his vulgarities were very likely to be true.” He added that he was sure these kinds of statements by Trump were meant to show off Trump’s alpha male bona fides, meant to intimate and/or demean men, but it showed him only that the stories were true.
You add up a jillion or so encounters like that, and unless you are a close friend like Navarro (someone DJT doesn’t wish to dominate in order to win something or other), you have to be willing to accept how even fair people respond.
I love DJT as a President. I have learned to accept his deep flaws, but in the end, politicis is very, very personal. He has alienated many voters he will never have the chance to win back. The same applies within the small world of NYC and DC and the politics that go with that area.
Politics IS PERSONAL, all the time.
You know a bad President who knew that? George Herbert Walker Bush. Hand notes to everyone, all his life. Making others feel important.
It’s too bad all that noblesse oblige from Bush 1 didn’t come with common sense about the world and a much better understanding of the lives of middle class and working class Americans.
And do you know why it was he so misjudged China and China’s motives? Because he had lived there and come to love the Chinese people. Whenever people close to Bush tried to warn him about the Chinese and their intent to take over the world, he couldn’t grasp that.
In Trump, we have a guy who grasps the common man and woman but who can’t control himself when it comes to throwing the high hard one at the head of a lot of people who have influence.
It is what it is. He is what he is.
Well said! It is all too true.
It says volumes about the ones who did’t response. If you can’t face Tucker Carlson, you don’t deserve to be president. And if you haven’t thought about these questions, you don’t deserve to be president.
Now, early in the cycle, is a great time for this.
Navarro is a patriot. Carlson is from CNN.
He has some good points. Sounds like his response comes from the belief that Tucker is not Trumps friend. If we blindly put all our eggs into one basket, we could be very frustrated and disappointed when Lucy pulls back the football leading up to the 2024 installations.
“If we blindly put all our eggs into one basket”
I’m seeing most clearly, thank you, and there is only ONE BASKET. President Trump is the one basket and all the eggs in it.
Youre welcome but the basket I believe Navarro was referring to is Tucker Carlson. Sounds like he got over emotional about it but there is a word of caution there worth contemplating.
You hit the nail on the head. Tucker has done some great work but I never believed he to be a real Trump supporter. Just my belief but I feel he is a DeSantis kinda guy.
Tucker really supports Tulsi Gabbard, going way back.
DeSantis is now on record contradicting his previous stance on Ukraine. And, looking at the order in which the candidates’ responses were posted, DeSantis looks like he’s just copying President Trump’s response rather than saying anything original or noteworthy. The best part is — somebody wrote DS’s response for him. No way he’s that articulate, and that lack will show up in any debate.
Like many lawyers desantis is articulate….I don’t like lawyers
The picture Sundance shows of Ron, makes me think of a ‘smirk’….and he is giddy about something whenever it was taken.
DeSantis is articulate?
Perhaps.
Formulaic, unimaginative, uninspiring and souless ie
elevator music for eyes rather than ears?
Definitely.
It’s probably his secretary that worked in Ukraine with the Disinformation chick.
I would rather see DeSantis go down in flames than see her anywhere near the corridors of power.
Navarro has been all but crucified for serving under Trump. Nobody is perfect but I cant think of anything off the top that would be considered a betrayal by Navarro against President Trump. Hes not some random anti MAGA guy so why do you think some people are so quick to dismiss his warning and throw him under the bus so easily here? Way too much emotional drivel getting in the way.
He is a journalist. He shouldn’t be a supporter of the folks in charge. I am in favor of antagonism between journalists and elected officials.
Supporting and Pimping Ron DeSantis is a MANDATORY prerequisite of holding a Job at Fox News
Peter Navarro’s opinion matters not one little bit to me. And I’m tired of people who don’t like Tucker Carlson who want to sidetrack threads constantly to criticize him for not being completely perfect or doing exactly what posters or Peter Navarro or anyone else think he should do. It was extremely interesting to see the waffling and waffling from all the globalists and deep state. Very worthwhile.
We don’t _pretend_ on this blog. That’s why Tucker is criticized.
“We dont _pretend”…….”That’s why” Navarro “is criticized”.
Thank God. Like other passionate ego centric brights, Peter as done alot of good and alot of harm that’s been horrid.
Cozette, what horrific crimes has he done? Seriously…
Tucker is trying to sell DeSoros as being like Trump regarding Ukraine.
Probably asked the questions with this objective in mind.
Entire network is now selling DeSoros.
Navarro is spot on.
my question for Navarro is who does he think HE is?
I do not see any inaccuracies in Navarro’s remarks.
I am reminded of the relationship that Sam Donaldson and with President Reagan. Donaldson asked tough questions. He was The power broker in the White House press corps. His tough questions forced Reagan to step up and clarify his positions. Unfortunately, there are no real Sam Donaldsons in the WHPC anymore.
Navarro seems to think that you have to be MAGA to ask questions, everything else is the enemy talking. Frankly, I don’t care if Tucker likes President Trump. In fact, President Trump benefits from someone who is asking the right questions. He’s hardest on the Leftist pigs that now run our nation. They won’t come on his show and ask questions.
Tucker in employed at the pleasure of Fox News. When he thinks it is time to stand on his principles, then he will not be there.
I appreciate Mr. Navarro’s loyalty to President Trump. It isn’t easy, but he appears to remain steadfast. However, Mr. Navarro seems to be grinding an ax of not being on the most popular news/pundit program on television and streaming. Perhaps he isn’t invited because Tucker has direct access to the man himself with no need to speak with lieutenants. Tucker has every right to ask the questions, just as the potential and declared candidates have every right to ignore him.
Every point is right on!
Tucker first caught my attention by the way that he asks hard questions. He did it to people on the left, and the conservative viewers on Fox ate it up.
I am all for him asking hard questions to people on the right, exactly as you said. Please, everyone who wants to be president: step up and clarify your positions.
Paging: Pompeo, Haley, etc . . .
I like Navarro, he’s and irascible codger. I think his Substack writing has some merit.
I love PN, but Tucker’s job is not to love on President Trump.
To Peter I say, no one else in the world of real journalism or fake journalism is putting any of these candidates on the record on Ukraine.
I think DeSantis revealed exactly who he really is: a guy who takes policy positions as close to Trump as possible.
It’s because he put out this statement that we are able now…and so is POTUS 45, to contract Ronnie’s position on foreign entanglements and specifically Ukraine, by looking back at his support of McCain’s posistion.
HIs whole congressional record does not speak to a man who believes in MAGA.
“To Peter I say, no one else in the world of real journalism or fake journalism is putting any of these candidates on the record on Ukraine.”
EXACTLY
Why are Rupert’s sons doing this?
Will never need to watch Tucker again.
The only question and answer that really matters:
♦ Should the United States support regime change in Russia?
“No. We should support regime change in the United States, that’s far more important. The Biden administration are the ones who got us into this mess.”
Brilliantly simple and direct.
Precise as well!
I really liked that reply also.
Absolutely fantastic response. No mealy mouthed nonsense.
Truly impressed with Donald Trump’s response, it is one that will work for all concerned. I especially liked his response to regime change; do it in this country, not Russia.
I liked Trumps response to the are the sanctions effective question. “No, they have not been effective. Just the opposite. They drove Russia, China and Iran into an unthinkable situation.” Head of nail, meet hammer.
And President Trump doesn’t continue into the realm of who we should be building up for war with or who our main enemy should be.
I couldn’t read anything after Trump’s answers. His don’t make me nauseous like the rest.
My take on these answers – not that anyone cares – but just my opinion after reading them.
Trump is the only direct speaker without waffling. Peace. End war now.
Pence, Christie, and Scott are deep state neocons.
Vivek Ramaswamy is clueless and a genuine Buttigieg. Says energy independence, but Europe should take care of its own problems but buy gas from the US.
Noem answers every question yes and no and then points the dogs of war toward China.
DeSantis is the usual blah, blah, blah, peace, blah, blah, blah, accountability, blah, blah, blah, cannot prioritize intervention, blah, blah, blah, costs. Peace should be the objective? Should be??? We should not send troops, F-16’s, or long range missiles, but that leaves a lot to send. He is also pointing the dogs of war toward China.
What are most disturbing are the comments on that thread. Nobody sees what is being said….nobody is taking it apart for what it means. It’s like they hear good words and that makes everything fine.
Yes, why did Tucker ask these idiots? Rhetorical. I know.
He told exactly why he asked. He said the conflict in Ukraine was one of the most important questions of the day. Obviously nobody was asking these supposed candidates.
Ukraine is a symptom of the disease.
Indeed!
A plandemic.
Destroy community
Compromise immunity
It is akin to the vaxx:
-the never-ending boosters that compromise, alter and take over immunity.
The messenger that destroys
He said the other media members have not asked a single question of the announced candidates, which is only parly true.
I’ve heard Fox anchors ask Tim Scott as Scott has been on their network a lot lately. I’ve heard Haley state her support for Ukraine, although I can’t actually remember if she volunteered that or if hers was a response to a Fox anchor’s question.
Five words: Fox News Board of Directors.
Oh, and the Turtle and Chucky. That makes an even ten words.
I do not view ramaswamy as “genuine buttigieg”. I think he is light years more intelligent more capable and more accomplished than buttigieg. I think ramaswamy is pipsqueek kid compared to trump at this time but has strong promise in future years. Buttigieg only got where he is because he counts on Seth klarman’s money and influence.
And he has lots of time to sharpen his chops.
I only read what President Trump had to say. It matters not to me the words coming out RINO mouths or their stenographers.
Soon are the ides of March and it is time to flush 30 Pence and all the rest.
People are genuinely stupid. It’s really that simple. The politicians know that and speak accordingly.
Neo-con WEF sellout Pence sword rattling?
Scott wanting to “degrade” the Russian military? How? Through direct conventional conflict with Russia or worse?
SMDH
I had the same reaction.
What Russia has been doing is taking US equipment they capture apart and finding out how it works.
Finding an “antidote” in some cases. And in others remanufacturing the technology.
That is one of the stated reasons that Ukraine will not be getting Abrams from us with the super duper secret armor. We don’t want the technology to fall in Russian hands.
I don’t know what he means by “degrade”.
Scott is clueless.
Russia already knows how the US equipment works in Ukraine, that’s how they’re blowing it up so easily. The reason the US is not sending Abrams tanks is because the DOD doesn’t want the world to see how obsolete they are. The Abrams tank has a huge heat signature with it’s turbine engine. That’s ok when you’re fighting goat herders, but not so much in a peer to peer battle because you’re not going to have complete air superiority. That’s why the newest design Abrams tanks have diesel-electric motors.
Unlike diesel-powered British Challengers and German Leopard tanks, Abram tanks are turbine-powered and use jet fuel. That means in addition to Abram tanks, you need a whole separate supply system to support those tanks while the normal supply system supports all the other vehicles/equipment. The Challengers and Leopards can go to any gas station that sells diesel and fill-up. The Abrams turbine engines can run on diesel fuel, but with a degraded engine performance and much added maintenance issues.
The super-duper secret armor is of British design.
What a total waste of our tax dollars.
Pence will be very prayerful as he launches those nukes. He’s got his act down pretty cold at this point.
De Sanctimonious is Mini Trump. Screw him. All the rest are idiots.
IMHO.
PS I LOVE NAVARRO.
Have you read his books?
He’s good.
It’s a mistake to misread DeSantis. The Ukraine-Russia conflict has opened a lot of eyes. It doesn’t matter that he followed McCain’s thinking while in Congress because Ukraine has ushered in a new realism, revealing the limits of U.S. power, both economically and militarily. Some–like Pence,–are blind to the new realities. Despite calling for peace early on, Trump too is partially blinded. For him the sole reason for Russia’s earlier restraint was the fact that he was president. (It may be true Putin perceived Trump to be an honest broker and might be reasoned with. But left out of Trump’s response is any mention of the breakdown of the Minsk accords and the clear belligerence of NATO on Russia’s border following Zelensky’s rise to power.) DeSantis in my view seems to be taking stock of the ever worsening situation and asking–do we really need this? As for his sincerity–he’s a politician–like Trump. And like Trump he should command respect for what he has achieved. Trump has serious flaws, so does DeSantis. The question is–which one would be best for America in 2024? DeSantis after all did not run Florida like a rino. His governance has been impeccable.
PS
Carlson said nothing more about Jan6 prisoners or the crass coup from last week. Eff him.
True.
It was a white wash – McCarthy is still a bum.
Uh oh, the kabuki theater script writers were not prepared for this change of scene.
Intermission.
Be right back, need to sweep the stage and freshen the makeup. Good time to visit the lobby for popcorn & beverages.
Way to go Tucker.
Thank you for a brief reprieve, a time out to renew our overworked skepticism and utter disbelief for the next episode of pretending the lie is the truth and only the highest levels of government can be trusted to tell the truth.
On the sunny side, two years from now all the pretenders will have to leave the United States to live in other countries and we’ll be rid of their filthy lying mouths and narcissistic sociopathic personalities once and for all.
There is simply no way this ends well for them. They’re too exposed to ever be useful again to anyone who would have them.
Mini Trump. Idiot.
Counterfeit Trump.
Small and defective.
Bien sur!
🎯

President Trump would do it.
Cut off the funding to Ukraine.
That would get Zelensky to the negotiation table the next day.
EU and NATO cannot support Ukraine. Zelensky knows it -EU and NATO knows it.
Trump would also not let Zelenskyyyyyyyy enter the room to participate in those negotiations without being respectfully and appropriately dressed. No hoodies.

Trump signifies that his administration will be much stronger in 2024, as in 2016 he was a total outsider who had to rely on some members of the establishment “When I went there I didn’t know a lot of people…. but I know them all now”
How about asking them this question:
The population of Eastern Ukraine is Russian and they voted overwhelming in 2014 to breakaway from Ukraine. In response Ukraine launched a military campaign against the Russian populated region and fighting has existed for the past ten years. Do you think that the Russian population of Eastern Ukraine is entitled to self-determination if, in fact, they legitimately voted to breakaway and become part of Russia????
TPTB don’t like ‘democracy’ when it doesn’t result in their favor.
Evidently!
Where was more January 6th coverage, TUCKER?
He caved. Paychecks far more important.
Its actually frightening to read all of the responses to the questions. All of the answers are based on the foundational premise that Russia invaded Ukraine which is what every other government institution and main stream media outlet agrees with. They also agree (except Trump) in public that Biden is the duly elected President.
Prepare your affairs accordingly….
Exactly! Russia did not invade Ukraine since the Eastern Region of Ukraine broke away in 2014 and declared it’s independence!
Pence’s comments are unbelievably stupid. ”
Russia’s economy and currency are not stronger than before the war. The Russian economy is in free-fall. The Russian ruble is still afloat because of the extremely costly measures Russia has taken to keep their currency at pre-war levels in the face of sanctions”
He must be watching too much CNN
Pence must get his information from CNN and MSNBC! He’s an idiot.
He may still have access to intelligence briefings as x-vp. Of course, those are fantasy as well.
Would really like to know
~ exactly
what Pence did as vp 🙄
(to have made note of that in his answer);
~TRYING to take personal credit
for President Trump’s genius.
Pence has drank the Kool-aid. And then went back for seconds.
I can’t find one thing he said that is true about Russia.
We have more jailed political prisoners than Russia has. J6. And my gut instinct is that Judas Pence was instrumental in their arrest.
My goodness..I just have no words….
Pence, Abbott, Christie… clowns
At this important time in history Texas is led by losers. Abbot, Cruz, and gawd know who else.
the biggest in the tent Cornyn
Chris Christie is an idiot.
China is Russias next door neighbor. They have almost always done business with each other.
China knows that if Russia were to fall- they are next.
China is not Stupid.
And if Christie ever thought Ukraine could win a battle against Russia…
This is a proxy war we are fighting against Russia. NATO, US and EU.
He’s a moron.
I give them all credit for answering Tucker Carlson questions. And I appreciate them responding.
President Trump….he gave the best answers and solutions. Hands down.
No War
TRUMP 2024
Exacty. Love it!
No War

Folks, i am not wild about Stew Peters, but do have respect for Karen Kin Gaston’s work—that said Idont know how true US is going to get out of this mess if they don’t sue Pfizer. https://rumble.com/v2czuaa-foreign-u.s.-biolabs-exposed-russian-general-igor-kirillov-cites-karen-king.html?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email
Kingston, Karen
DeSantis is egghead writing position papers. Trump is leader who is ready to assemble decision-making people around the table and negotiate an end to this war, period.
Boom
Fantastic.
All of the daggers thrown at Tucker for not being a “journalist” and he just did the most journalistic thing lost in media today. He simply asked questions and allowed us to read the answers ourselves.
We don’t need to be told what to interpret, just soak the words in.
The differences between candidates’ answers on the authenticity / b.s. scale are glaringly obvious. It is so refreshing to be able to simply read the questions and answers myself without a narrative pushed.
Yes!
.
Admin, please delete.
It’s insulting that Pence invokes Reagan-era foreign policy doctrine. Pence is the Liz Cheney of George H.W. Bushes.
FMP…
Pence’s foreign policy advisors are Jeff Zucker and John Bolton!
I’ll probably get banned for this, but I am tired of Trump’s middle schooler language.
From my unsophisticated perspective DeSantis and Noem gave good answers. Abbott is out of his depth. The rest are typical warmongers-neocons.
“I am tired of Trumps middle schooler language”.
For some people, words do speak louder than actions.
Unfortunately, those with this form of conceptual dyslexia are most vulnerable to being duped by casually cruel, smooth talking cons and malevolent psyop attacks on their heart and mind.
Psyop attacks tempt their prey to care about the superficial and feels rather than what’s real.
Perhaps heed Christs many warnings about how dangerous it is to use style rather than substance and heart when judging people?
Example? The Publican and the Pharisee.
very sanctimonious
I am responding to your initial comment.
Trump speaks at a level that people can understand and makes listeners want to take action. Since the Deep State’s way is, “trust us; we are the experts,” I think it is good that Trump’s language drives people to action. We don’t need to stand back and let the experts do their thing.
For me, this is equally true for the people who can’t stand Trump. Everyone needs to get up and involved, not just those on one side or the other.
I agree with you, though. He could do so much more if he were more respectful.
“Trump speaks at a level that people can understand” I have zero problems with that, if and this is a big if, he could occasionally demonstrate he can actually speak as an adult.
I voted for him 3 times, but I am on the fence now, because of his endless antics, language and most importantly hiring choices in the past and now. He is scolding RDS for Paul Ryan connection and himself hanging with Graham.
He is doing better in this campaign than I expected. I thought there would be more “would you please go away,” but he keeps bringing freshness. He’ll probably be exhausted and sick of the whole thing by the time he is inaugurated, Ha.
I think that he has learned some lessons and will surround himself with better people this time. But, then he does things like “hanging with Graham.”
“banned” ????
~Get some rest.
Magnesium helps, and aids in absorption.
thanks, doc
There is absolutely nothing trustworthy about Tucker Carlson. I am glad he’s highlighting topics but he’s just a media talking head. He acts surprised that the security video tapes are somehow new revelations about Jan6 and the fraudulent election. These people are so damn fake. Tucker is very good at faking sincerity.
Sure, but we love Tucker anyway! LOL
Tucker does an outstanding job and is one of the few that shines light on the corruption. If he doesn’t like Trump that’s ok with me as long as he does his job well. Tucker was always more of a libertarian.
You miss the point I was making. Tucker knew the election was fraudulent, he knew Jan6 was a set up . He just clutched his pearls and behaved according to his slayers commands. Now he’s trying to behave like he’s a journalist. Barf!
He is one in a long line of #batteredconservativesyndrome purveyors.
In case you didn’t know, that is how you make $500M off the republican lemmings.
Good point
Really, Ron? So you’re leaving that door open? Ron, you are sooo late to the party. And it shows. What did I just read? This opinion is not genuine at all, because he’s still talking about the quality of leadership in Moscow like it supposed to mean something. Is Al-Sisi a “Madisonian”? You can clearly tell that this is a poll tested response. This is the ambiguity that turns people off from politicians.
And it is poll-tested gibberish. “Speak long enough, and the people will leave you alone.”
It is the opposite of Trump, who wants to get you up and acting, whether you agree with him or can’t stand him.
Trump, Noem and Desantis are the only ones worth commenting on.
Trump dictated his answers; cracked me up because it sounds like him talking. He’s the only one who thinks Europe should take care of this Ukraine problem. Why? It seems obvious when you think about it. Noem mentioned it, but Trump doubled down. Trump always finds the obvious and inexplicably surprises everyone.
I don’t particularly like Noem but I thought her answers were well thought out and made me take a second look.
Desantis is doing that thing: trying to say what he thinks people want to hear but soft pedal it to make it palatable for those who disagree. He also never said anything about getting out of Ukraine nor defunding it which leads me to believe he would do neither.
Note: Pence sounds like a verbose democrat.
DeSantis sounds like a verbose democrat. Pence is an unhinged neocon.
I read Navarro’s reaction. I like him but his take misses the point. I have no problem with Tucker sending out a questionnaire nor do I have a problem with Tucker disliking Trump. I personally think Trump considers right wing punditry to be his personal employees. I bitch and complain about the schmoozing that goes on behind our backs in this world and God knows what other backstabbing. Tucker exhibiting independence is OK with me. No what bothers me is if this hatred of Trump includes subverting the will of the people, especially on behalf of the globalists looking to destroy our way of life. All of these responses to the Ukraine question are very interesting. 2016 me would’ve been fascinated by each reply. The way I see it in 2023, they don’t mean very much if we do not have the ability to vote and have our voices heard. Trump seems to be the only way out. (And incidentally gave the best response)
“No what bothers me is if this hatred of Trump includes subverting the will of the people, especially on behalf of the globalists looking to destroy our way of life”
Shout it from the rooftops, sister!
My takeaway is that several of the asinine war mongering neocons running are a danger to you and your famly.
not several of them,all of them except President Trump.
The man is a juggernaut. Trump or bust!
I have always felt going back to last Summer that Kristi Noem would be odds on favorite to be Pres DJT Vice Presidential candidate! With Kari Lake looking like she wants to go after the USSenate seat in Arizona I believe that if she has a good showing in the next year, Noem will be the number 2 on the Pres DJT ticket in 2024!
I could see it but I could also see Tulsi.
Like a boss, Pres Trump grabs both sides by the scruff of the neck and tells them exactly what’s going to happen.
“Sit down, shut up and stop the fighting. This is stopping right now, you’re both a disgrace, woe betide you if either one of you start anymore shenanigans. And if either of you think I won’t come down hard, think again.”
“To those of you watching the fight and egging these two on, scat! I’ll deal with you later!”
order restored within 24 hours.
Not quite. Putin will have something to say about it.
He will say, “It took you long enough. Why did you let them steal your election? I am glad that you are finally back. Let’s restore order and prosper in our own ways.”
Tucker is trying to prop up DeSantis vis a vis Trump and these questionnaire numbers not serve to give DeSantis a platform for his poll tested responses. It’s all a sham.
With that said, Trump’s responses were the best and set the agenda for the opposition to Biden among most of the GOP contenders .
Even PDJT’s response, avoids entirely addressing the REAL issue, IMHO.
“Never would have happened, if Trump were POTUS” I agree with, but not the “WHY”.
Because PDJT would not have gone along with the Victoria Nuland operation of “poking the bear” that we all WATCHED, and that makes Pence and the neocons version of events, and rationalisations so rediculous.
Putin and Russia have not systematically countenanced “color revolutions” in the Countries that lay between Russia, and the NATO “line” as it existed at the end of the Cold War, and hence moved right up to NATOS doorstep.
And Russia and Putin do not have any desire to conquer Western Europe.
I WOULD LIKE to see an answer that puts the blame where it belongs, and doesn’t ascribe U.S. Govt. actions as Biden incompetence, when it was I/C and State Dept. egged on by neocons, that INTENTIONALLY created this fiasco.
And the argument that the U.S. must do this, to support “A nations soveriegnity” is particularly rich, since those saying it are GLOBALISTS that intend to eliminate every country having soveriegnity, are actively working to destroy ours, and first advanced the idea of “Pre-emptive self-defense” with the “War on Terror”.
The U.S. ignores national soveriegnity, when it suits them, destroys it’s own, will fully and intentionally, but then cries that it must further bankrupt itself and its citisenry, to”defend” the soveriegnity of Ukraine?
It’s ludicrous.
I would say some responses were worse than others, and all avoided speaking truthfully.
Trump tried to stop the Ukraine Train and got impeached for his efforts, twice.
God, Mike Pence is absolute slime, eh? I mean sure we’ve all known that for awhile, but seems he isn’t yet satisfied with his Slime Quotient. Keep pushing, Mike… you may yet break the meter!
Chris Christie on the list? Anything that man, or Pence, has to say is a waste of eyeball time.
President Trump’s answers are direct and polished. Compared to Trump’s replies, the others mostly come across as polishing turds. Shine ’em up!
[1] ‘ What specifically is our objective in Ukraine, and how will we know when we’ve achieved it?
(Trump:) “Our objective in Ukraine is to help and secure Europe, but Europe isn’t helping itself. They are relying on the United States to largely do it for them. That is very unfair to us. Especially since Europe takes advantage of us on trade and other things.” ‘
Many suggest that years of US-pushed NATO expansion eastward toward Russia, and years of US meddling in Russian border country Ukraine, triggered the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
And that if the US had not escalated it, pumping it with money, weapons, MIL intel support etc., it would have ended quickly with Russia’s small satellite nation once again secured as Russia’s small satellite, end of story.
So that Europe may rightfully consider this whole mess to be caused – and continued – by the US, therefore that the US is also responsible for resolving this threat to European security.
So the question becomes: How should the objective “to help and secure Europe” be accomplished, if the security threat arose because of US aggression?
We need more specifics from Trump and other politicians. What is the end state that US foreign policy should seek to achieve here? Yes, “European security” – but what, exactly, will that condition be? What are the positions of the US, Europe, NATO, Ukraine, Russia – and China – in this end state we should seek?
Nobody is answering these questions.
[2] (Trump:) ‘ Next, tell Ukraine that there will be little more money coming from us, UNLESS RUSSIA CONTINUES TO PROSECUTE THE WAR. ‘
In other words: Continue sending money to Ukraine if Russia continues to prosecute the war. How is that any different from what is already happening with the bidenpuppet WH and Uniparty congress?
Here’s another idea:
Stop pumping Ukraine with weapons, money, MIL intel support. Cease NATO push eastward, announce that NATO will not accept Ukraine. Russian completes its military action, Ukraine is restored as a small Russian satellite. End of story.
(It’s not like the US has not abruptly withdrawn leaving a huge mess before – look at Afghanistan, for a recent example.)
Why are we responsible for European security? Europeans can get off their asses and defend themselves.
Frankly, I would have preferred hearing someone say no mas!!! Money to Ukraine. Full stop. We are supporting their corrupt politicians and funding everything. That’s completely effed up. No more money. Don’t give a fig about Ukraine or Europe.
Take the next logical step and let Russia into NATO. Better yet, disband NATO and let Russia sell Europe its natural gas. The security posture of Europe has to include Russia as a guarantor. All this anti Russian hate has to go.
One must remember to not give Putin (and others that President Trump noted)
even the slightest idea
that President Trump would ever do -anywhere-
what Biden and his fellow leftists
did in Afghanistan.
What is also implied / noted: what NATO is supposed to be for.
. Eff Tucker and fox’s every potential candidate list. Navarro is right about that.
Noem looks good and gives a likeable impression. She’s the best of the governors. Perhaps if she cuts muster Trump will rescue her from the RGA, Uniparty globalist financiers and consider strategically elevating her to veep or cabinet? She appears more genuine than the rest so far. Abbot at least presents that he’s genuinely focused on his current job. Sanctimonious has profoundly cooked his own goose and should go away as the waste of breath he is. Hopefully Trump has the very best America First veep already lined up like a Lou Dobbs. I also like Charles Payne, Steve Bannon, and Sundance, Lindell, etc. America First Gravitas is important and attractive. The VP becomes the heir apparent so we really need someone of caliber. Vivek is to young. Sorry, next.
The rest of tucker’s so called Every potential candidate and their responses are unsatisfactory. Ranging from disingenuous to repulsive, especially that disgusting penced! That traitor needs to be exported to Club Gitmo!
Besides Noem, swamp creature Pompeii is the only one of presence or stature, even being non responsive to the questions. He’s intelligent, dangerous and a known commodity . Watchout for him.
Who in the bloody hell does Tucker Carlson think he is????
Some kind of kingmaker that must have candidates dancing to his tune in exchange for credibility?
That’s rich since your credibility is now shit Tucker. Where are YOUR promised follow ups on Jan 6th Tucker?
When the going gets rough Tucker drops it. J6 and the Hunter Biden lap top. He’s a faker.
Rather – controlled opposition. You cannot trust FN or Cruzbots.
He asked all of the candidates hard questions. He isn’t a kingmaker. He is a journalist doing his job. He let the potential candidates shed some serious light here.
Tucker Carlson is not a journalist, lol.
Real journalists investigate and report news.
When exactly, did Ron DeSantis become a declared candidate, by the way? I missed that little nugget.
Tucker got Fox some big ass ratings with his last Monday bullshit 15 minutes on J6. He promised to do more, then nothing.
Tucker Carlson is absolutely THE MOST prolific abuser of already battered conservatives. Fox knows this and pays Tucker a tens-of-millions per year contract because he’s so damn good at it.
Gobble it up sheeple. We ain’t buying what Tucker is trying to sell.
Meanwhile, in the real world of power and influence, Xi is meeting Putin next week in Russia to discuss next moves to further weaken US economy.
It’s never been about Ukraine!!
We are encouraging them to do this.
We sanction Russian gas? Fine, they will sell it to the Chinese (and the Germans can relocate their factories there).
We sanction the Ruble? Fine, Russia will stop trading in the dollar (WHOOPS!).
We seize their assets? It’s a fine thing for the rest of the world to see.
When Trump was president, his administration got the Sunni world to come to terms with Israel. Trump leaves, and China brings in the next step; speaking terms between Sunni and Shia.
Trump would be there with Xi and Putin, each making their own nation stronger.
Trump had the best response by far
Tucker caved to FOX and only aired one night of Jan6
CONTROLLED BY FOX and Uniparty same ones financially backing DeSantis
Tucker is not James O’Keefe
These questions are of vital necessity for the public to ponder. The answers enable critical evaluations of each candidate and the ability to sweep the idiots from any further consideration,i.e., Pence, Christie, Scott. Those who did not respond are simply a waste of everyone’s time. President Trump and Governors Noem, DeSantis and Abbott are opposed to continued fighting in the Ukraine. That’s good, but no one other than President Trump brings the gravitas and deal making skill to the table. Noem is pretty to look at but Putin would eat her lunch. Abbott is a weak persona and would never deliver. DeSantis, I’m afraid, would be co-opted by special interests ( follow the money).
Mike Pence sounds like a Biden clone.
Re Peter Navarro and his, “Who does he think he is?” reaction to Tucker Carlson. One thought: many of us here have asked ourselves and others at various times since the escalator, “How could Trump not see this coming?” when somebody sabotaged him or double-crossed him. Well, when TC comes out for RDS, and he will, are you going to post that same question here? Maybe Navarro sees it as inevitable…🤔
Re Peter Navarro and his, “Who does he think he is?” reaction to Tucker Carlson. A few more thoughts: maybe the questions bothered Navarro (why no J6)? or maybe he was bothered by Tucker deciding who is presidential material and then giving them a national platform to counter VSGPDJT thus diminishing Trump’s stature/positions? or perhaps Peter thinks/knows that J6 is THEE issue and now TC bailed on that and is into chaf-&-counter-measures to get America off of J6?
I don’t know…all I know is Sundance, and many of you, have taught me how to look past the “shiny object” to see the real objective.
Vivek is the real deal without a doubt. Like Trump he is fervently America First in an unapologetic Uni-Party disrupting way and has the capacity to self-fund. He also is brilliant. While Kari Lake is my first choice for Trump VP, Vivek is my second because I truly see him as part of our future in this movement. I will continue to support Trump but will also support Vivek. We must understand that in order to take our country back we must invest on those coming after Trump. Not the posers (Massie, DeSantis for example) and not the corruptocons (Ryan, Pence, McConnell, Thune, Ernst) for example). Rather those who deserve our support and trust. I place Vivek in that category. I invite you to listen to his speeches and decide for yourself. I jumped on the Trump train in 2015 December I do not make this recommendation without thought and research.
I agree with your thought process Seed. I will try to read up on Vivek. I know nothing about him. But we do need to give support to those that might follow Trump or fill his administration. He needs good supportive and capable people to work with him.
Sorry, but even Trump’s response to these questions is totally off the mark. The ‘security’ of Europe will be obtained when NATO stops encroaching on Russia’s borders.
Why didn’t Tucker ask Biden?
Scott, Christie, and Pence are scary people.
The arrogance of Pence is astonishing. For him to indicate to know what Putin is thinking or his long-term intentions are is the very definition of hubris. This man is dangerous. He is just spouting the lines of the uni party and has no position of his own. GOOD LUCK PENCE!!!!!
