Fox News host Tucker Carlson discussed the declining popularity of President Joe Biden amongst the Democratic party on Monday night’s edition of his eponymous television program.
“Like certain species of marsupials, Joe Biden’s task was to do one big thing,” Carlson said. “In his case, change the country forever and then disappear. We’ve reached the disappearing part right about now”
“Democrats would like Joe Biden gone soon,” Carlson continued. “He’s longer useful to them. He’s just embarrassing. He shakes hands with thin air. He compliments the Holocaust on state trips to Israel. Can’t do that.”
The Fox host noted, “So, not surprisingly, almost 70% of Democratic voters don’t want Joe Biden to run again. So, you can be certain that he won’t. No matter what his staff is claiming now, they don’t want to be relegated to lame duck status, so they’re pretending otherwise, but no matter what they say, you will never hear another word from Joe Biden after January of 2025, assuming he makes it that long.”
Carlson went on to deride the Democrat figures who are preparing bids to challenge Biden in 2024, most notably Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker and California governor Gavin Newsom.
“Pritzker is an inherited money dolt,” Carlson jibed. “He’s impressed not a single person who knows him, but he yet spent more than $171 million of his family’s money to get a job that he does not seem to enjoy and certainly isn’t very good at. J.B. Pritzker is one of the last people on Earth who should be running anything and yet somehow he’s convinced himself he’s going to be the next president.”
“Gavin Newsom and J.B. Pritzker run the dirtiest, most dangerous state in the country with the worst cities—Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, great places, all, all places that have been destroyed and the basis of that record of destruction, they become convinced they run the country,” he continued. “They need to be president. Now, if that’s not hilarious, what is?”
Carlson concluded, “These are ridiculous people. Newsom looks like an ad for a plastic surgery clinic. Ah, look at the teeth. J.B. Pritzker can barely walk to the podium. So again, who’s the consultant who managed to keep a straight face while telling J.B. Pritzker he could be president? We’d love that man’s name. ‘People love you, J.B. You can do it.'”
