On another thread there is reference to Tucker's "interview" with Putin. Apparently his deal with the Russian leader encompassed even more propaganda. www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/he-can-stay-in-russia-tucker-carlson-faces-backlash-after-he-heaps-praise-on-moscow-calls-it-nicer-than-any-city-in-us/ar-BB1iciSM?ocid=msedgntp&pc=DCTS&cvid=a68071d7d8934104878f61fe4661c61f&ei=26DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES: Tucker Carlson explained his visit to Moscow to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin as "radicalizing", saying the capital city of Russia was much "prettier" than any city in the United States. Following his interview with Putin last week, Carlson complimented Moscow while speaking at the World Governments Summit in Dubai.What did Tucker Carlson say about his Moscow visit? Carlson recounted, "It is so much nicer than any city in my country. I had no idea. My father spent a lot of time there in the '80s when he worked for the US government and they barely had electricity." "And now it is so much cleaner and safer and prettier, aesthetically, its architecture, its food, its service, than any city in the United States that you have to - and this is not ideological - how did that happen?Anyone else in favor of having Tucker move there permanently? Perhaps Trump can join him too. They can stay in the pretty part of Moscow he saw.

Dumbass is too stupid to realize his handlers only let him see the prime real estate where the oligarchs and high up government workers live. Hope he stays there

Saw another clip where Tucker was excited that he could buy enough groceries for a week for his whole crew for $100 bucks. Claimed that Russia had beaten inflation.
Apparently no body told his an average Russian take home pay if 500 bucks per month.
Dumbass

Dumbass And reportedly expressed amazement that the grocery carts need a coin to unlock them, but you get the coin back when you return it so people won't steal the carts. Amazing technology...that has been in use for decades....

Apparently no body told his an average Russian take home pay if 500 bucks per month. Dumbass Groceries are about 25cents on the dollar in Turkiye, as well. Rents are also about 1/4 what they average in the US. and Istanbul is beautiful. but i don't think many of you would like living there. (though i like it) Tucker is taking advantage of the provincialism and ignorance of Americans. he is the blind man with the elephant. but he is the one wearing a blindfold, rather than being excusably blind.

oh, to add one more thing.
i AGREE WITH HIM that America is not the best place on Earth to live. but if he is trying to convince me that a poverty stricken pariah of the West with inclimate weather year-round is preferable to, say, Vashon Island, i think he is completely mad.
