Tucker Carlson’s Biggest Mistake
by Jeffrey Tucker Daily Reckoning
A new biography of Tucker Carlson offers a very interesting look at the intellectual odyssey of the most popular commentator in the U.S. if not the world. Particularly interesting is his turnabout on the pandemic response.
Today he is a mighty critic of lockdowns and forced vaccination. But it was not always so.
In fact, his voice was massively influential both in inspiring the lockdowns and warming conservatives up to the idea of panic.
Most devastatingly, in the first week of March, one week before the lockdowns, Tucker flew to Mar-a-Lago — his first time there — to meet with Trump and tell him that he was completely wrong that this pandemic required no extraordinary response. Instead he needed to act now.
