Carlson also spent last week ranting about how the "civic religion" of elites is Israelism (whatever the hell that means). And he backed up that conclusion with the old "If you want to know who rules over you, just look for who you are not allowed to criticize", which is a quote from a Neo Nazi.
He's a bad actor who launders white nationalist talking points. He goes where he thinks his audience wants him to go. Don't give him credit for finally changing his rhetoric against Trump. It won't last.
Obviously Carlson isn't a good guy all of a sudden. What's interesting is that there is clearly a split in maga now because war on Iran turned out to be such an utter debacle.
The split seems to have started with the Epstein files and It's starting to grow. I'm curious to see how overt it will become. Will it simply result in lower republican voter turnout? Or will a high number of former allies in government start to turn on him?
We might seem something like how his pedo pick Roy Moore lost to a Democrat in Alabama because Republican turnout was so low. Idk about an overt MAGA civil war. Most people I know who voted MAGA are just really quiet now and "don't want to talk about politics."
