We then will need Jon Stewart to run against him, to wipe the floor with him. Again.

That is a terrifying thought.

He could actually win it.

Yea you're not wrong. The Republicans are playing the long game here. They're really getting involved with the youth, I mean just look at rumble for example and whatever other medium they've been using. The Democrats are virtually non-existent it feels like on the social networking side of things or maybe it's just the Right is obnoxiously loud. It's scary man, if they can mobilize and weaponize the younger demographic voters then what does that spell for the short term (2028) or even the longer term when their ideals are fully cemented and are less likely to be swayed unless a serious upheaval happens.

I just can't believe the left's strategy of being holier than thou Karens that ain't half as smart as they think they are, and covering that with moral outrage meant to dissuade anyone from thinking too critically, has backfired.

Tucker Carlson is like Ted Cruz or Ron DeSantis; they can be propped up by right-wing propaganda but when it comes down to actually needing to deal with people they are so fundamentally and viscerally unlikable that they can't win anything outside of safe Republican spaces.

Even the people who like Tucker Carlson's shtick don't like Tucker Carlson.
