Tucker Carlson Calls DeSantis Influencers: “the nastiest, stupidest, and the most zero-sum people I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Oh snap, this is buckets of funny. The DeSantis influencers are having major ‘splodey heads right now. The meltdowns are too funny. What makes this even more hilarious is that DeSantis online influencers considered Tucker Carlson to be a major player in their tribe.

Speaking at the Turning Point USA event to Tim Pool {Direct Rumble Link}, Tucker Carlson gave his opinion on the Ron DeSantis online influence campaign; saying, “the people who represent him online are the nastiest, the stupidest, and the most zero-sum people I’ve ever seen in my life.WATCH:

It’s funny, because it’s true.

Christina Pushaw put all of her attention into recruiting online “influencers” in 2022, and they turned out to be the most rude, obnoxious, nasty people on all social media. It’s just too funny, because we watched it unfold in real time. 😂🤣😂

my English teacher taught it only “stupid people said “stupidest”. It’s “most stupid”!

Your English teacher is dead, get over it.

Stupid, stupider, stupidest, who cares. It's the message that counts.

I'm surprised you didn't post a picture of the gold star she likely stuck on your forehead for your spelling proficiency .......LOL!

My high school English teacher told my parents ‘he has an apparent mental block regrading English grammar.’

You’re just a PDJT hater.

That’s too bad.

Like many campaigns, especially ones that are too well-funded and launched with high expectations, the DeSantis campaign fell into the trap of trying to use cleverness and cash as a way to overcome the limitations of their candidate. When that failed, they turned nasty.

DeSantis is a good man and a good governor, but that did not make him ready to run for president against Trump. As his team of lushly paid professional campaign consultants and operatives found DeSantis inadequate for his role, they began to flail away at the media and then at outsiders for not getting aboard. This almost certainly reflects the views of DeSantis and his over-involved spouse.

These are ordinary human failings and not to be assessed too much against DeSantis and his wife as people or against his campaign team. Yet, facing far worse circumstances and treatment, Trump and his circle have done much better. One sees Trump on the campaign trail showing not just strength and a strong sense of mission, but even enjoying himself.

This is an inadequately appreciated reason for Trump's appeal. His defects and mistakes do not negate his virtues and good record as President. In a tough spot due to the election stealing in 2020 and grossly unfair indictments and lawsuits against him, Trump is showing strength and courage in adversity by running for reelection. More than that, Trump is demonstrating a resilience of spirit that Americans traditionally called grit and saw as a dimension of character and a mark of true leadership.

Our greatest leaders and public figures showed grit and it inspired those around them and America as a whole. We know the slogans and incidents of history by heart.

With an Army defeated, cold, starving, nearly in rags, close to dissolving, and the Revolution itself near collapse, George Washington rallied his men for a night march from Valley Forge. They crossed the Delaware River in a snowstorm, then marched to Trenton and attacked and routed British and professional Hessian soldiers on Christmas Day.

With a US Navy crew shot to pieces and their vessel sinking, John Paul Jones rejected a British surrender request by saying: "I have not yet begun to fight!"

When the US Navy's attack on Mobile Bay during the Civil War hung in the balance, Admiral Farragut commanded: "Damn the torpedoes. Full speed ahead."

Against the Depression and a fear that America itself was failing, FDR offered: "We have nothing to fear but fear itself."

With our country in trouble, Trump seems poised to win in 2024 and may one day be seen by history as among the best. Against that, what can DeSantis offer? A good resume. That is not enough, and it galls DeSantis and his people as that sinks in.

Glad someone else isn’t a big Tucker fan. I always thought he had that Michel Savage flavor so didn’t listen to him very often at all.

No one that is a product of Foxnews ever turns out be anything but obnoxious.

Very well said, Rockingham. Merry Christmas to you and to all FReepers.

You mentioned the word "grit" and I dug up the speech President Trump gave at the 2017 commencement at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.

This 6-minute core of his speech talks a lot about American success and grit and his immortal words are highlighted with world-class production values in video clips and inspirational music fit to President Trump's remarks.

It's one for the history books and it deserves to be seen again in prep for 2024, a year where an existential threat to America exists and we need the fortitude of heart and grit to win a big one for We The People and our Constitutional republic.

President Trump "Never Give Up!" MOTIVATIONAL VIDEO

Thank you for the video. Trump is well-served by showing himself as a happy warrior, rallying and inspiring his troops and the country.
