    Have some respect OP. Rafael or Edward is the correct way to address the senator. After all he doesn’t believe in the use of preferred names.

    Yeah saw a clip of this.

    Jesus fucking Christ it was surreal to watch Tucker “Tan your balls” Carlson and think, “fucking finally a journalist that knows not to take bullshit from Senators” in an interview.

    Also, go watch the interview or at least the clip from ol’ ballsunner. The MAGA rift is real and it’s time to put pressure on the schism. It’s the first and best shit to break that coalition in a decade.

      The dumbest thing about it is how simple it is. Tucker’s not dropping any hard-hitting deep dive questions here. Just really basic shit like where does it say the in the Bible? And painting out ‘You’re a Senator and you don’t know anything about the place you want to bomb?’ Like a random 7 year old could be doing this.

              To be fair, it is understandable that a tropical dingdong would jump to the wrong conclusion there.

    There isn’t a reputable lawyer advising the republicans. Only corrupt judges allowing them to do illegal shit.

    Rule #1 Per a lawyer, shut the fuck up!

      You should watch the clip: https://youtu.be/91p5LwHgmgo

      Whatever it is that Tucker believes, however disconnected and opaque that might be, I believe he truly believes what he believes.

      Cruz however believes in nothing.

        I thought Tucker was a true believer in his own stuff as well, but after that “we have a courier running us the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop just stay tuned folks…oh no wait it’s lost oh god it was the only copy oh no ah geez” stunt, I began to wonder if he’s even better at playing the idiot grift than I gave him credit for.

          What about that time he said he was attacked and mauled by a demon in his bed?

          If I believed myself to have been attacked by an actual demon I would no longer live the life Tucker does. I wouldn’t be spending time with Ted Cruz, of all the fucking people on this earth, talking about Iran.

    Tucker has been a skillful opportunist, Cuban republicans are just rotten to the core.
