Just dropped on Twitter/X, Tucker Carlson interviewing Vladimir Putin.

https://x.com/TuckerCarlson/status/175573452667892...

Seems to be a history lesson so far.

Carlson is hardly going to challenge Putin or ask him any difficult questions about the forthcoming ‘election’ is he? The interview is taking place in Moscow, after all, and one assumes he would like to get out of the country alive. Or not be thrown in jail indefinitely like the other two American journalists who displeased the Russian dictator.

"Do you like coffee?" "Da."
"Do you like ice cream?" "Niet."
"Liverpool or Man United?" "Man United."
"Football or tennis?" "Football."
"Thanks for the interview, Mr Putin, most enlightening."

Well of course. Just like Biden or Sunak would say it’s all 100% Putins fault, and it’s not like our political masters don’t like to tell a fib, (or omit the whole truth).

If I’m going to hear a politician lie, then personally I’d like to hear the lies from both sides, as the truth likely lands somewhere in the middle.

Big picture in my mind
putin needing the trump to win and come like a white knite and grab a big ...no huge deal, maybe hugest deal in history of deals and peace will be restored in a huge world wide deal.

But other than that i need bed and am wondering who I put in the claim for the over 2 hours of my time i feel i just wasted sort of. putin looks like a prem manager who has lost the last 8 home games

You'll be fine and the rest of the world will be okay too if you watch it. Your view won't throw the switch to nuclear Armageddon or whatever.

Before watching I injected a half litre of bleach just in case WEF nannites infected my mind, and I ran over the local 5G mast.

The audience for this will be prime targets.

Watch something educational/ enlightening from Vlad Vexler, instead - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_j6Vg7yLx54

Quelle surprise.

Even during his pre-interview blurb Carlson couldn't help but fawn over Putin and lie about Zelensky - heck, he even said hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians dead but no mention of how many Russians have died.

Carlson is still a chinless wker.

I'm sure Putin appeals to a certain type of American.

I'm surprised Carlson didn't conduct the interview while cupping his balls.

It might be interesting to hear from Putin if a proper interviewer got to do the job. Carlson is a pathological liar and has never been even remotely connected with anything resembling integrity.

This was always going to be a propaganda piece, noone that would ask a difficult question would ever get within a mile of Putin.

If it were a simple case of comparing one lie to another.

But there is plenty of other evidence in this case that should guide one to a roughly accurate answer.
