Tucker's Descent Continues

Carlson’s interview with Cooper is posted here on X. Some 23.8 million viewers have watched some part of it. Elon Musk has retweeted it. You too can lose brain cells tuning in, as I did yesterday, only to “learn” that Winston Churchill was the “chief villain” of World War II — in the hushed tone of “now it can be said.” David Irving, call your office!

Isaac Schorr plucks some quotable quotes from Cooper’s comments in the Mediate story Tucker Carlson Starstruck By Historian Who Calls Churchill, Not Hitler, the ‘Chief Villain’ of WW2 and Casts Holocaust as Accident” that give a sense of the Cooper/Carlson historical phantasmagoria. There is much more that could and should be said. Given his audience and the reach of that interview, I hope some serious historians such as Andrew Roberts and Victor Davis Hanson will say it. In the meantime, I present Carlson as Exhibit A of a descent into willfully ignorant stupidity in the service of a bad cause.
