    Unfortunately

    The bottom line: Trump won’t have issues turning out his base in November, regardless of the state of conservative media. The bigger question is which voices will fill the vacuum when Trump is eventually gone.

    Mark my words, Tucker Carlson will be the next republican candidate and he’ll have major male based support

      I’ve been saying it since 2017. Hard agree. Hell run against Ivanka or some other trump mob tie in 2028 and secure the nomination. Still believing it now.

      That’s probably why he’s giving Putin/Russia so many reacharounds. Trying to appeal to that white supremacist base…

    I think this is a bit of a Tempest in a Teapot.

    My conservative friends are into Daily Wire and more than willing to sacrifice Tucker Carlson politically speaking.

    If you want to harm Republican causes, you need to go for bigger fish than Tucker Carlson. He’s really lose influence over the last couple of years.

    Wake me up if we’re back to talking Fox News, Daily Wire, NY Post, Drudge Report, Reason.com. you know, websites or media that actually have power in the right wing?

      Sinclair group to be honest. It’s that their talking points are in ‘local’ news across the country and even CNN so all our news media is shifting to what fox used to be.
