Twitter Screams That Tucker Carlson is Putin’s Agent After Tucker Argues for Dismantling NATO

By

Some of us are more prone to conspiracy theories than others. But then there’s that old rule, just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean someone isn’t watching you? That’s what it feels like with the entire Trump movement coupling with the Russia thing.

The Mueller document did, in fact, establish a lot of ties between the Russian government and elements around Trump, but not enough to prosecute. The Republican Senate Committee then later found out that Trump’s one-time campaign director Paul Manafort was found to have given “inside” campaign information to a Russian asset (either from Russia or Pro-Russia Ukrainian), which sounds like part collusion.

And then there’s the rest, the NRA going bankrupt after all the Russian money stopped flowing in, the fact that the 2016 Republican platform was an exact copy of the 2012 platform with ONE change made at the request of Trump’s people. It softened its position against Russia for invading a portion of Ukraine during the Obama administration.

Trump seemed to never have anything good to say about NATO and John Bolton said he believed Trump would pull the United States out of NATO. Just last week, Rep. Cawthorn implied that Russia would kick our asses if we intervened and then details about his relationship with his short-lived marriage screamed “Ask him questions!!!” given the Russian interface.

And tonight we have Tucker Carlson arguing that we have no need for NATO now that the SOVIET Union is gone. To be sure, NATO isn’t as critical as it was back in the day we had bombers flying over the polar cap 24/7, just in case. But it has certainly been far more of a net benefit than anything detrimental.

One can tell that it serves a serious purpose because Putin wants it gone, like yesterday. He has publicly complained about eastern European nations approaching NATO, some joining. Putin doesn’t like NATO because NATO assumes open democracy and transparent government and Putin doesn’t want any of that anywhere near him.

So why is it that we can count upon so many MAGAs doing PSAs for Putin’s dream? Tucker did a fantastic job tonight:

I can answer that question, Tucker, and I’m dumber than ham. If nothing else, NATO brings stability in an unstable world. There, challenge answered. It also allows the U.S. to dictate a lot of terms with other countries because we’re so powerful militarily

A LOT of the responses on Twitter suggested a Tucker/Russian relationship. Russia knows you cannot own a country or party without owning the media, or as much as you can get:

Over and Over.
