I feel the majority of the people are getting frustrated. They are afraid. They want action not talk and sorry to say the President is just talking right now!
The President has responded and is continuing to respond.
Tucker is not doing his homework well. If he needs a vacation, he can find several qualified commentators to fill in for him.
I scan selected channels for information, not necessarily news because news is a variable product which may be defective. Quality news from corporate studios is hard to come by. Tucker’s current rant themes are devoid of information other than his personal goal to agitate for views and appear ‘balanced’ to the advertisers that threaten Fox’s Ad revenue.
Tucker rants that “Trump supporters don’t want to hear” his recent spew. They will gladly hear bad news about the 2020 election prospects if there are facts of substance to back it up, but there are none. So Tucker is merely using the time to round up his network’s cash cows
Get your resume ready Tuckus, and send it over to OANN.
I understand Carlson. He hates what he is seeing. So do I.
Like almost everything Trump has faced the last 4 years, this is an organized political action, designed to push him into a trap. There’s nothing more the Left and their corrupt media cronies would love to have on film than National Guard shooting at activist blacks and snowflake white “protestors.”
Trump is not taking the bait.
So Trump is taking the road of talking tough, letting the public see the continued chaos and stupidity of local leftist politicians in places like Seattle, and riding out criticism from some in his own base, like Tucker Carlson.
I believe Trump is playing this correctly.
I’m convinced Trump’s falling in the polls in recent weeks with suburban women and independents can be traced back to his tweet regarding the riots and looting that occurred in response to Floyd’s murder. His quoting of the Miami police chief in 1967, “When the looting starts, the shooting starts”, is at the core of his slump in the polls. Its the reason various advertisers like North Face and Verizon are boycotting Facebook and Twitter for not blocking “hate speech”. The perception is that he is advocating violence against blacks instead of pointing out how chaos begets violence.
There’s still time to counter this meme but if he loses in November this will be remembered as a key self inflicted turning point.
He should have fired every three and four star general/admiral during his first week in office. He didnt and he needs to root out the disloyal traitors by sending the troops to the streets. Anyone disobeying his orders is shot. Washington did it to quell a mutiny, had 10 ringleaders publicly shot.
I think Tucker has a daddy problem.
I remember Tucker from other shows on which he appeared.
He goes on for a while, making good sense, and on ...and on.
And, for me, he always goes just one step too far.
This is that step.
The President of the United States is not supposed to give us hugs. He has told us to be vigilant, to be careful, to be patient for a vaccine, which will be here soon.
What can he say to you, Tucker, to make you feel better?
Had Trump stepped in and stopped it, he could have salvaged it.
But now most people are just resigned to the fact that this crap will only stop when Trump is gone, fairly or unfairly.
The Democrats are holding us hostage.
I am a retired Army Officer. The first officer who said no to the President would face summary execution in order to get the attention of everyone else. Who would be the first officer in American history since Benedict Arnold to take that step???
Rush had at least one “Karen” caller who echoed Tucker’s concern that President Trump is not “leading” the country. She’s been listening to the MSM too much. I guess Trump has to have daily talks to the nation to reassure the ones with weak knees.
“Nobody has Trump’s back, that’s why. Especially the Repukes!”
Exactly! I’m so damn pissed off at almost everyone one of them. Trump, we, need them and they’re too damned afraid to stand up to a marxist, anti-American, terrorist organization.

Agree completely.
That strategy can only take a president so far.
At some point the public will not only see the lack of action from the local leftist politicians, they will think the same of their president.
At some point the president has to take action, and I believe the president has made that clear.
*** The Republicans are letting this country be destroyed by fanatics. ***
There is no Republican/Democrat difference. They (with a few exceptions) wear different color jerseys, but play for the same team.
“Trump is taking the road of talking tough”
—
“Don’t make me mad or I’ll talk tough!” Sounds like a great plan.
Yes.
In the name of Cultural Marxism, domestic terrorist organizations are waging a highly-coordinated and well-funded kinetic war against the United States of America, which includes including rioting, looting, arson, monument destruction, police ambushes, beatings, homicides and vandalism. There has been no effective push-back because the corrupt media is prepared to demonize and destroy anyone who puts a stop to this anarchy.
Nothing will change as long as there are no meaningful consequences that are equally kinetic. I suggest taking a page from (Democrat) Richard Daley’s 1968 Chicago riots playbook and turn law enforcement and the military loose to restore order and civil control. Playing patty cakes with these criminal neo-Marxists will not remedy this problem, not now - not ever.
Furthermore, declare BLM, Antifa and all others official domestic terrorist organizations, then freeze or seize their U.S. assets and those of all individuals and entities that are contributing to their existence, in cash or in kind, foreign or domestic, then indict and prosecute using RICO, the responsible individuals thereof for treason. The FBI already knows who they are, and Americans will be shocked to learn who’s actively dedicated to the destruction of America.
There’s your “Reset Button.”
“It’s much harder for a president to have an effect when his own party will not support him. How can you lead when you have no followers? The Republicans are letting this country be destroyed by fanatics.”
Agree. One clown on this site was mad as hell at me because I told him the country would be better off under Trump than Biden. He didn’t care about Biden, he was just livid that Trump (and the party) didn’t try to balance the budget and that Trump’s judges weren’t in the mold of Scalia.
I tried to tell him that what he wants would take the Republicans from a 45% party to a 25% party (after all, how many seniors what their SS slashed?). Didin’t matter to him. In other words, his problem was with US, the Republican base, the people responsible for most of that 45%.
Anyway, if he’s in any way representative of a big part of the Republican base, then we might as well fold and just hand everything over to the Democrats, which is what he’s advocating.
Using the U.S. military to quell disturbances in this country against the wishes of a governor or mayor is a recipe for disaster.
And Tucker Carlson should grow up and move the hell out of D.C. already. Most Americans only see “rebellion” on TV — and most of those who are experiencing it first-hand are living in places that vote overwhelmingly for Democrats anyway.
