It's really cool that unironically one of our few realistic hopes for avoiding a decade of utter misery and descent into fascism is Donald Trump getting reelected and subsequently getting blamed for all the terrible poo poo that's coming. I wish I could go back in time and tell my past self that Donald Trump will be running, for reelection, in 2020 and him winning is legitimately and unironically the better outcome.

The one saving grace right now keeping me from having an anxiety attack is that the media saying that someone's a "rising star", a shoo-in, or has a "compelling biography" is generally a complete kiss of death, particularly 4 years out.

To make a presidential run Tucker Carlson will necessarily rely on other people's money and media coverage. He's not as notable or telegenic as Trump to get the free air time and he's not as independent from donors as Trump to craft his own policy. This isn't to say that he couldn't win the nomination but he'd have a much more difficult time running as a true outsider in a meaningful sense. Also this is moot because like I said Trump is just going to run again in 2024 and he will win the nomination.

The media loves giving him extensive think pieces about how strange and compelling he is but you're right that the FEC rule against having your own show while running as a candidate will gently caress him over

This always triggers reactionaries who think Carlson is on their side. quote:When asked on “Bubba the Love Sponge” in 2008 how he pays his bills, Carlson replied that he’s “extraordinarily loaded” just from “inheritance from my number of trust funds.” https://theintercept.com/2019/03/12/tucker-carlson-tapes-rupert-murdoch/

You have to declare your candidacy about 7 to 8 months pre-Iowa to have a shot these days. I'm not sure Boomers will even remember him after the 8 months he'll have to be off the air BIG FLUFFY DOG has issued a correction as of 17:59 on Jul 3, 2020 |

Donald Trump appeals to the people because despite being a rich failson he's really one of them, a loud boor who says exactly what pops into his head at all times and eats Big Macs for breakfast lunch and dinner Tucker Carlson is a patrician who wears bowties

BIG FLUFFY DOG posted:Tucker Carlson is smarter than almost any national republican and part of that intelligence is him realizing that he would do absolutely terribly in any environment where he can't just cut people's mics when they start clowning on him Yeah. I'm not counting Tucker out of the running, but I think there's a significant difference between having a micromanaged TV show where he gets to stack the deck in his favor and talk about whatever he wants for an hour the same way you would come up with the Perfect Bulletproof Debate in the shower and going out on the stump, rallying people through their emotions and making an appeal to voters not already in his base (voter suppression, I know I know). But like, let's actually imagine Tucker as a populist candidate instead of a talking head on a cable show. Does he cut to people's emotions in the same way that Trump does or Hillary did or Bernie did or gently caress it, even Biden has a connection to people believe it or not as a dude who is quote unquote "real" or is at the least reminiscent of a nostalgic recent past. I dunno, I'm spitballing here, Tucker could very well find the way to pivot and do this well, but he could also be talked up as the Perfect Candidate the way this same party establishment was anticipating Jeb Bush would dominate in 2016 and then it could all crumble down because people realize he's just some rich TV dinner trust fund shithead. Honestly, I think even Tucker is too prim and proper for these people. His greatest asset, his intelligence, might actually be his greatest failing because clearly the GOP base reviles anyone remotely educated or smart. I bet you anything the next GOP nominee comes from law enforcement. One of the psycho sheriffs will rise to national prominence when they decide to defy a toothless Biden EO that will cut ICE's budget by .75% and make a big stink of it and they'll ride that blood and soil rage to power. Not specifically David Clarke or Joe Arpaio but one of the endless stream of fascists just like them, maybe Thomas Hodgson.
