https://www.vox.com/2019/2/20/18233556/tucker-carlson-rutger-bregman-nowthis-dutch-historian Bregman is a Dutch leftist writer and historian who shot to stardom after he told attendees at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland — to their faces — that their taxes needed to go up, saying, “It feels like I’m at a firefighters conference and no one’s allowed to speak about water, right? Just stop talking about philanthropy and start talking about taxes.” That fits well with Carlson’s new brand. But Bregman is also a vocal advocate of open borders and views Carlson’s change of heart as a convenient last-minute bait and switch by a right-wing network that’s ultimately out for its own interests. So their interview went … well, just watch: https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/1098282209834950657?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1098282209834950657&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vox.com%2F2019%2F2%2F20%2F18233556%2Ftucker-carlson-rutger-bregman-nowthis-dutch-historian
wait this guy is for nations closing down tax loopholes that prevent billionaires from moving all their money around overseas and tucker still hates him?
Hope this goes viral. Anything to take Fox News down a few notches.
The weird thing is that Tucker Carlson was agreeing with him to some degree at the start and even the middle.
Presumably because he thought he'd be too stupid to realize Carlson is a raging hypocrite.
apparently Carlson is re-branding himself a little bit to be more economically left-wing, presumably because he found out many people actually support a lot of left-wing policy I guess??

That's amazing.
Tucker Carlson can go to the devil, I hope the backlash from this one isn't something he'll soon forget.
Tucker insulting guests and not giving them any room to speak is Tucker-tactics 101, it's pretty standard shit People act like he brilliantly debates and mops the floor with them, and he pretends he doesn't do it, but the reality is that it's all for show and actually no he's just a dickhead
"the sworn enemy of lying pomposity smugness and groupthink" everybody! if you don't know, Tuck closes out his show with this statement every day
he was agreeing with him 100% until he actually broached the subject of raising taxes, then he got angry when the man rightfully pointed out that the billionaires fund the majority if not all of, the right wing think tanks like Cato
Tucker Carlson isn't a very good debater, most of the time Fox tries to screen out candidates to the point were they expect it will be some dumb leftie who will make a fool of themselves.
Are we sure he wasn't just interviewing a mirror?
Tucker's attempt at rebranding is the biggest crock of bullshit since W. advertised himself as the "Compassionate Conservative"
What sucks is that I've seen it work on some people.

Fucker Calzone called Canadians, categorically, retarded, and he hasn't really gotten any better in the many years since.
Man, you can tell Carlson had a very specific game plan for this interview. Had his talking points all neatly laid out and you can just feel him getting more flustered and frustrated every time Bregman just kinda brushes them off and keeps the conversation firmly rooted The way he goes speechless after the comment about jumping on the bandwagon with AOC and Sanders
I feel like my brain is melting here. Wasn't Sean Hannity the batshit insane one, and Tucker the moderate? Or was it always the other way around? What is happening.
I think you're thinking of Shepherd Smith
Oh, maybe that was him. Seems I got their names mixed up.
https://twitter.com/TuckerCarlson/status/1098374271628390400 Oh boy, I can't wait to see the mental gymnastics he shall perform to uphold his good name.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWLKeC8zgGU Incase you're wondering what his response is What a load
"The segment couldn't air because I lost control and swore and we chose not to bleep it. I'm not sorry and I did nothing wrong."
I think he likely began jusifying it with "if I wasn't doing it, somebody else will" and then when you bullshit successfully you begin to believe in it yourself.
Aaaand he landed on his head after the first cart-wheel. Good job.
na carlson has always been the one that look like confused cave man
Fox News has standards?
