Tucker Carlson Quotes

is an American television host

I'll go through all of [12 steps for people who say are traumatized by the election], but a sample: Volunteer to fight Islamaphobia. Join the ACLU. Donate to Planned Parenthood. Take down sexism and misogyny. Sort of all the stations of the cross of liberalism. Sort of all the stations of the cross of liberalism. I'm from rural Oregon, Yamhill County, a farm four miles out of a town of 1,000 people and that town is overwhelmingly pro-Trump. I'm just not sure I trust the federal government not to trample on civil liberties. I don't notice any sympathy for them in [ Nicholas Kristof] column. If you're writing a column saying the people for Trump are Nazis and Klansman and North Korean dictators. I'm not trying to be mean. You [ Nicholas Kristof] have written about climate change. You're really concerned and you've thought a lot about the suffering of people in other countries. It doesn't seem like you have thought that deeply about the suffering of your fellow Americans. You don't have the solutions say as you do for global warming. And my question is: Isn't it always easier for the elites to identify with abstractions or poor people in other countries and kind of ignore their own country men. I have noticed this. Have you noticed that? The American Nazi party and the KKK don't really exist in a meaningful way. They may have an office or website. But they are not tens of thousands of members. Since 1978 for the bottom half of the wealth distribution male median wages have actually gone down. And I think that's a crucial reason. If you are a male worker, your median wage since 1979 has gone down. If you are a [Hillary] Clinton supporter if you have friends who voted for [Donald] Trump it's harder to demonize that person. Is calling English our national language racist? Are we at that point? I want to act in America's interest and stop making shallow, sweeping claims about countries we don't fully understand and hope everything will be fine in the end. I saw that happen and it didn't work. I read Nicholas Kristof columns. I think it was in September [2016] had he this piece look who is endorsing [Donald] Trump, who is behind him. It was the North Korean government, it was Islamic terrorists. It's the Klan. It's the American Nazi party. It seems very uncharitable to me. There was no room for people who are decent but economically beleaguered to maybe want to support him. I will avoid demonizing people who don't agree with me about this election. Canada has little pictures of us in its bedroom, right? Canada spends all of its time thinking about the United States, obsessing over the United States. It's unrequited love between Canada and the United States. We don't have enough folks who grew up in working class rural communities. When you tie [Donald] Trump supporters to those groups [the American Nazi party and the KKK ] that is a slur. Studies have shown people listen to TV than watch it. I think Michael Moore is loathsome, though, not because he dislikes Bush, but because he seems to dislike America. I watched Bill O'Reilly for years. People tend to cherish and take care of the things they pay for and therefore own, countries included. The opposite is also true. When was the last time you changed the oil in a rental car? As a print journalist, you can be frustrated by people who don't call you back, parts of the story you can't get. TV gets you access to everyone because people call you back. It also allows you to satisfy your curiosity. I am a very curious person. If you think your average Trump voter in Ohio hates Washington, you should see what Washington thinks about the Trump voter in Ohio. No agency is more acutely aware of how potentially damning and politically sensitive background investigations can be than the FBI; it conducts those investigations, after all. In the Nation of Islam, Akbar Muhammad is a big deal. Almost nobody gets rich or erudite overnight. Speaking fluent English - like doing long division or successfully rewiring a 220-volt electrical outlet - is not a skill you're born with. It's something you learn, occasionally even by opening some old dictionary. Senator McConnell is by all accounts a decent person. He's pretty conservative, too. In politics, reform never comes before crisis. Nobody wants to be seen with a bigot. The tax code is becoming steadily more progressive, which shouldn't surprise anyone who understands power politics. It's always easier to force sacrifice on an unpopular minority than it is to ask the majority to pony up.
