Jacob Rees Mogg Tucker Carlson interview

[NotAToryGenuinely]

Not a fan of Jacob Rees Mogg and his values.

BUT

He is lit during this interview. Every snapshot I’ve seen on X has had me in stitches about how he has run rings around the American interviewer who thinks he knows Britain better than a Brit does.

It’s a long interview so scroll, stop at random and be entertained (even though JRM’s message is worrying).

Entertained at the tennis match of debate, not the warmongering.

Just away to do some batch cooking and was looking for something to have on in the background. Will report back

Can’t stand JRM but this did make good listening.

Thank you - I was a bit worried about showing any support for JRM but this interview is delicious.

Apparently Tucker Carlson is a divisive figure in the USA.

This is from Wikipedia “On February 23, 2017, The Atlantic wrote that "Carlson's true talent is not for political philosophizing, it's for televised partisan combat. His go-to weapons—the smirky sarcasm, the barbed comebacks, the vicious politeness—seem uniquely designed to drive his sparring partners nuts, frequently making for terrific television".[283]

On September 19, 2017, journalist Stephen Rodrick wrote in a GQ profile of Carlson: "On his show, Carlson mocks and verbally body-slams those who disagree with him, a passel of easy marks such as Democratic politicians, well-meaning liberal activists, and young reporters. He shares with Donald Trump a deep reluctance to apologize for his mistakes, and he lobs insults that seem suspiciously like subconscious self-assessments: He loves to accuse his guests of 'preening', and he derides 'pomposity, smugness, and groupthink'."[79

He is no match for an arrogant, intellectual, elite-educated Englishman who has knowledge, intelligence and articulateness to destroy his opponent.

Google Rutger Bergman and Tucker Carlson. You’ll see an interview where Rutger runs rings around TC and TC eventually snaps and calls him a fucking moron. Of course it never made it to air. It’s hysterical.
