The media including CNN would never come out and defend Ted Cruz, no matter how much he panders to them. But CNN’s potato Brian Stelter tried his best after Tucker Carlson absolutely wrecked Cruz and his phony attitude on his show last night. Seems Tucker Carlson is the new boogeyman, and according to potato Stelter Tucker Carlson is the new Donald Trump. Yea, umm not really potato.
No Brian, Tucker Carlson isn’t the new Donald Trump. Tucker Carlson simply does something you don’t do. Report the news and hold slimy politicians like Cruz accountable for their statements. Take a lesson potato head. There’s a reason why CNN’s ratings suck. You one just one of many reasons.
CNN’s chief media correspondent Brian Stelter said Friday on “Newsroom” that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) begging for forgiveness from Tucker Carlson is evidence the Fox News host is the new Donald Trump.
Stelter said, “Cruz folded like a paper airplane. I think what it shows is the Republican messaging about being tough on crime, which is something that’s gone back decades that Cruz was trying to lean into, has come up against this denial of the January 6 crime. So you have Tucker Carlson trying to take a position that what we saw with our own eyes didn’t really happen. Not that many police officers were injured, even though some of the officers that were attacked that day still can’t get back to work because the injuries were so severe. But Carlson’s in such profound denial about that, that he has to put on this performance and Cruz, absolutely begged for forgiveness.”
He continued, “About a year ago, media reporters like yours truly start started to say Tucker Carlson is the new Donald Trump. I’ve never seen a bit of proof better than this. This is the ultimate example of Tucker Carlson’s power. He essentially now runs the GOP media.”
