Chauvin conviction: watch Tucker Carlson melt down and laugh like The Joker

It’s never a good idea to disregard fascists.

That wasn’t a meltdown, that was his flesh suit slipping out of place for a moment. Give him sugar water, and he’ll be fine.

Reminds me, yet again, of the timeless quote about the Republican’s UK brethren, the Tory party.

what is Toryism, except organized spivery?

Nah, Dan Quayle was outsmarted by a potato and he was an intellectual giant compared to Tucker Carlson.

Christ, what an asshole.

I would happily watch a potato over Tucker. It would certainly be more intellectually stimulating.

Point of order: he was outsmarted by a potatoe.

But he was a happy camper about the whole thing.

The human flesh suit being on the fritz is a common problem for these shape shifting goons.

Best part: “The difference is your lead in is CNN News. Mine is a puppet show doing crank calls”

Unfortunately, no we can’t. Even though reasonable people all know he is a lying bigot who not so secretly supports white supremacy and armed uprisings, we have to pay attention to what he is saying because of who he is saying it to. The next attempted coup may not be televised but I bet you dollars to doughnuts it will be announced on his show.

The evidence against Chauvin was so incredibly overwhelming. Nine minutes with his knee on a handcuffed and cooperative suspect who was begging for his life. Witnesses including children telling Chauvin to stop. Well documented cases of Chauvin using pepper spray against black crowds at a nightclub for no apparent reason.

Tucker doesn’t realize he’s proving the opposite point. Businesses know they have to board up their stores because such a huge part of the community is angry about police abuse that there aren’t enough cops to stop the tidal wave of violence a not guilty verdict would bring.

He’s also contradicting an actual cop. Is there no such thing as excessive force?

Even by the standards of rabid homophobes. Remember, Dan White also murdered Mayor George Moscone shortly before murdering Supervisor Harvey Milk.

I guess if you’re a vile enough bigot then killing a gay person is worth enough points to earn forgiveness for killing a cishet white male.

Tucker is certainly consistent in insisting that there’s no such thing as excessive force as long as it’s being done by a police officer (or in White’s case, a former police officer) even if that force takes the form of gunning down a mayor and councilman in a cold-blooded premeditated murder.

Even cold-blooded murdering bastard Dan White apparently had limits for what he considered appropriate force by a police officer; he quit the SFPD to join the fire department shortly after reporting a fellow officer for beating a handcuffed black prisoner.

Something tells me this isn’t the part of Dan White’s legacy that Tucker idolized him for.

He answers his own question.

I honestly don’t care as long as he reaches skeleton state in as short a time period as possible.

He just needs to go away.

Because, the sad thing is that his viewers (the millions of them) do not see this interaction as bizarre or insane, they see it as “HA! He just owned that Librul communist!”…

Why do I think of Charles Manson, " Helter Skelter "?
Does he really want a race war?
Or is he just a hired flunky to put words to the music his bosses play.
Totally replaceable with another pie hole.
