Tucker only cares about Iran because his financial backers care about Iran. Go marvel at Russian supermarkets and lob softball questions to Putin, Tucker. Go suck up to Alex Jones and Viktor Bout. Ted can hopefully drown while snorkeling in Cancun.

trump is mad Russia isn't listening to him about Ukraine.
He thought it was a two way relationship, he didn't understand Russia viewed it as a one way relationship.
Tucker is a piece of shit, but he understands he works for Russia and not with Russia, you can't just fucking walk away from that relationship like trump is trying to.
Loads of his support was because Russia wanted him to be supported. If Russia yanks that away, trump can't maintain his razor thin margins in the House and Senate, at least a handful will side with Russia over trump due to various reasons.
They're unlikely to side with Dems, but they'll stop anything from passing till midterms.
Like most scenarios, trump doesn't understand the situation and is acting early which is going to fuck everything up for Republicans in the long run.
He thought it was a two way relationship, he didn’t understand Russia viewed it as a one way relationship.
That's the problem with Russia's regime.
It's still people born in the USSR with the typical Soviet person's thinking - they say all the right things, but act differently eventually.
You can live alongside such a person for many years and think that their personality is real, but that's because USSR's society was created this way. It took ignorant peasants and workers and street food sellers and taught them professions requiring deeper understanding than they had, by direction, by order. That means those people just developed imitation skills of amazing quality.
Those looking like engineers and scientists can be found to covertly go to fortunetellers and be antivaxxers. Those looking like rock musicians can be found, like Kipelov, to be covertly USSR-nostalgic and conformist. Those looking like artists with some peaceful and humanist themes, like Makarevitch, can be later found in Israel living in a mansion in place of a burnt Arab village.
And so fucking on.
So, in case of Putin, they had that appearance of scary-scary mafia or smart-smart group of deep-state-secretly-serial-murderer-ex-intelligence-KGB-patriotic-brain types, but over time their inner essence too becomes visible, as they get old. And it was all a pretense too. It's all fake. They have killed many people, they do drugs trade, they torture people in prisons, they do everything for it to seem real, but without understanding. They just imitate the picture they saw in movies, books, gossip, of others doing it.
In fact they are a group of komsomol woodcutter team leaders or kolkhoz directors who got to a higher place than was ever intended for them. All they can is to voluntell a bunch of people to go cut trees. They have fewer and fewer people over years and they terribly mismanage the forest they have, but there are too many people and the forest is too big for them to notice. At the same time they are able to steal, which is enough for them.
They don't really understand what diplomacy means, or what war means, or what strategy is. They don't understand why their side of the deal should be fulfilled. They didn't conclude that many big deals in these 30 years.
If they did, then Trump's expectation would make perfect sense.
So a lying scum bag opportunist and a lying scum bag opportunist are disagreeing
They should fight to the death
Mutual?
One can wish upon a star!
Winner gets a ticket to Mars
I'd buy a ticket to see that.
Neither of them are arguing for America's interests.

Fun fact:
Ted Cruz daddy (ted too) is also a member of the new apostolic reformation (NAR) whose appeal to heaven flag is flying in DC today.
This is what papa Cruz said about ted:
During a sermon at the New Beginnings church in Bedford, Texas, in 2012, Rafael had described his son’s Senate campaign as the fulfillment of biblical prophecy that “God would anoint Christian ‘kings’ to preside over an ‘end-time transfer of wealth’ from the wicked to the righteous.”
“According to his father and [New Beginnings Pastor Larry] Huch, Ted Cruz is anointed by God to help Christians in their effort to “go to the marketplace and occupy the land … and take dominion” over it,

the fulfillment of biblical prophecy that “God would anoint Christian ‘kings’ to preside over an ‘end-time transfer of wealth’ from the wicked to the righteous.”
A) I thought the Bible taught against hoarding wealth.
B) Aren't they all supposed to be Raptured into Heaven anyway, leaving us sinners alone here on Earth, where we'll end up with their stuff anyway 'cause their stuff isn't going to Heaven with them? So what do they need it for?
So what do they need it for?
To bring about Armageddon, as their Doomsday/Suicide cult salivates over. Were I their diety, I'd be pretty pissed at them wrecking my creation for their selfish desires, and the whole mass murder thing that conflicts pretty solidly with the 10 Commandments.
Why is Tucker Carlson speaking sense recently. What's going on?
Putin doesn't want Iran attacked.
Fox News does.
Tucker often ends up speaking for Putinist agendas for some reason.
I mean to be fair lots of people don't want Iran to be attacked. The only people who do are Zionist fascists and their paid stooges in the US.
Russia is allied with Iran.
Which also in a roundabout way underscores that even objectionable entities (like Russia) can have some agreeable opinions even if only because they're self-serving.
Never assume these assholes are ”speaking sense”, it’s always sketch as hell and there’s an underlying motive. For example: “Large” Marge Greene is against it because she just hates Jewish people that much (see also Eric Clapton’s alleged support for Palestine).
