Accused Of Sexism
Some fans were surprised when Carlson endorsed comments of the controversial nature that were made by his brother, Buckley. His brother had referred to the New York Mayor’s spokeswoman as a “whiny little self-righteous bitch.” Tucker defended his brother and said that he “meant it in the nicest way.”
Ban On Muslims
When it comes to a ban on Muslims, Tucker Carlson has said flipped the subject on its head. “A temporary ban on Muslim immigration? That sounds a little extreme (meaning nobody else has said it recently in public),” Carlson wrote. “But is it? Millions of Muslims have moved to Western Europe over the past 50 years, and a sizable number of them still haven’t assimilated. Instead, they remain hostile and sometimes dangerous to the cultures that welcomed them. By any measure, that experiment has failed. What’s our strategy for not repeating it here, especially after San Bernardino—attacks that seemed to come out of nowhere? Invoke American exceptionalism and hope for the best? Before Trump, that was the plan.”
