Video: Brilliant Ben Carson Calmly Schools Fox Business' Neil Cavuto on the “Cookie Jar” Theory
100percentfedup ^ | 04/24/2021 | Leisa Audette

Ben Carson is a brilliant man whose interview with Neil Cavuto is a great example of slicing and dicing someone without being confrontational. The video below is from an interview Carson gave to Neil Cavuto of Fox Business. Cavuto tried his hardest but could not get a rise out of Carson, who calmly destroyed every argument Cavuto tossed his way. This was a master class in defusing jerks like Cavuto.

When Cavuto asked about the 2020 election results, Carlson brilliantly responded:

Cavuto: “There’s a strong plurality of Republicans, led by no less than Donald Trump himself, that thought the wrong person won the presidential election, that Donald Trump was robbed of that victory. Do you agree with that?”

Carlson: Well, I think it’s certainly worthy of investigation. What disturbs me is when people say you can’t even talk about that. It’s like you stole the cookies from the cookie jar and then you said, “***No one can talk about the cookie jar or even go near the cookie jar.”

That does raise your suspicion. I would like to see any credible things investigated so we can put it to rest once and for all.

***On a side note: Carson is telling the truth when he says no one can talk about the “cookie jar” because censorship is happening to anyone who tries to discuss election integrity. Articles are flagged and hidden in the newsfeed. Writers have taken to writing cryptic titles to keep their report from being suppressed.

Cavuto responded: “You don’t think there were enough investigations and enough calls to look into things that Republican and Democratic-appointed judges alike examined and, in more than three dozen cases, shot each and every one down?”

Carson: “That’s what they would like you to believe, but they didn’t really examine the evidence. There were only two cases in which the evidence was actually examined by the judicial system, and both of those are still active.”

“So, in your gut, Doctor, is Joe Biden, the legitimate president of the United States?” Cavuto asked.

Carson’s brilliant answer: “It doesn’t really matter what my gut says. What matters is, are we going to be open and fair about this and about elections in general?

The discussion begins at the 1:30 point in the video:

I can’t believe Carson didn’t bring up Cavuto’s:

‘I cannot stress this enough, this will kill you’
He used the flawed\crap VA study as proof for “this will kill you”.

and it really wasn’t a VA study. It was mostly a retrospective study done by some doctors from Virginia, where they cherry-picked VA patient data of Vets that were mostly co-morbid near the end of life.

HCQ is semi-useless at that late stage.

We (Freepers) absolutely tore that report apart here.

Doughboy Cavuto is no match for Ben.

Caviuto looks like he’s been in the cookie jar.

Ben Carson was a Brain surgeon. Cavuto is lecturing him on “ medical experts”.

Does cavuto ever have a logical thought, or does he just continue to spout the fake news with a little sugar coating.

When he was in the economic business, he was watchable, but he now thinks he is walter cyrptonite.

Dr Carson is such a class act. Cavuto should be ashamed. But narcissists are never ashamed of their own actions.

Ben Carson has his own style and he brilliantly flips the table on agenda-driven tools like Cavuto.

What a great American.

lHe did a fantastic job, but I thinks he’s smart enough and has enough common sense that he can go anywhere and be very successful.

Rare these days

I really wish he would have been named head of HHS instead of HUD.

It would have been great to see him implement his plan concerning medical savings accounts.

Rule out ben carson. I have met him and shook his hand in private at an airport gate in ft. Lauderdale. He is a brilliant man and a very warm human being, his wife is a lovely person too. Unlike DJT, Dr, Carson is not political battle material.

There are normal IQ, Bright, Genius and Superior Intelligence IQ individuals around.

And there are borderline and extremely low IQ persons as well, and sadly, they're the ones who make it to the House of Representatives and the US Senate.

“Medical experts have looked at that, doctor, as you know, and poo-pooed that connection,” Cavuto pushed back”

If a journalist, arguing with a literal brain surgeon, uses the word “poo-poohed”, he has lost the argument.

That has always been my impression of him.

I read his autobiography, and have followed him, and I believe these things to be true:

When I had heard he was running for President, my heart sank a little. He does say things here and there than don't sound good to me as a conservative, but I suspect much of that is due to interviewers and media trying to listen to every word he says 24x7 and casting it in the worst light with no context attached at all. Not always true, because I have heard him say things about the 2nd Amendment (for example) which in Tennis would be called an "unforced error), but I like him. I liken his errors in elucidating his stances on things he has little or no knowledge of (and I believe the 2nd Amendment was one of them) to the fact he doesn't realize there are people hanging on his every word, smiling and reasonable to his face, but looking for a way to stick a journalistic knife into him.

A bit naive in that respect. I wonder if he has changed in the last five years.

He is not a political creature outside those skills needed in a large medical organization, IMO.

God bless Dr. Carson, he's the kind of guy one would want to hang out with just for the positive influence.

Cavuto is an example of what's detestable about Republicans.

I always thought that if everyone had the intelligence, integrity, and demeanor of Doctor Carson we would not need governments
