Getting shitcanned by yet another cable news network is absolutely a win for the guy.

just cause you want it to be one way doesn't make it so.

we live in a world where Joe Rogan was paid 200 mil from Spotify and the last 12 books written by Bill O'Reilly were all best sellers and he still has an audience like a decade after getting fired by Fox.

Tucker owns that right leaning demographic the same was Trump does there is literally no chance he isn't making more money than he was at Fox with whatever he does next. if i had to guess he'll have his own website setup like Oreilly's with a Premium tier https://www.billoreilly.com/

Meh, boomers aren't going to be around too much longer to keep buying those crappy books.

What other skills does Tucker have that could bring him a similar income?
literally millions of people who would listen to him describe the shit he took after breakfast.

forget about a broadcast show on twitter

Ekco is right, a single tell-all book would sell more than $25 million in it's first week

forget about all the alt-right psychos who would flock to buy it, millions more leftists and moderates would buy it to read about whatever inside secrets about Fox/murdoch that he spills.

they underestimated rural america once

complacency means an unafforable risk that they'll do it again.

trump doesn't even make sense when he talks

imagine a hard-right candidate who could rustle up that base, that charisma and actually come up with a reasonable platform

i'm not saying I'm thinking of someone who could, I'm saying hubris, ego and complacency is how they lost 2016, boomers didn't elect donald trump, they always have/will vote republican. it was everyone else who hated hilary.

but you all know what i really think. that the left/right fighting st all political theatre, and american government has been a uniparty since G.W. Bush

Boomers absolutely elected Trump, scaring them off with his disastrous Covid response is one of the main reasons he lost so badly. Anyway, by definition a hard-right platform probably isn't going to make much sense.

That's not employment. Tucker will escape the non-compete bs easily. He has no other skills.

im talking about how the dems lost 2016, nothing to do with 2020

are you really to stupid to understand that the vast majority of boomers are gonna vote republican even if the candidate was a black gay muslim?

those votes are locked in. they don't vote candidate, they vote party because they are still addicted to reagan.

what the dems didn't calculate properly in 2016 is the amount of moderate voters that utterly hate hilary clinton, and if they aren't careful they are gonna do it again.

this only matters if Im wrong about the uniparty theory, and really this is a game for intellectually functional adults.

you don't understand how politics actually works, so go back to what you do best, and sit in velks on blue and grind out that frenzy loot nearly 24/7, Horza

i do appreciate how you've driven the silver chitin wristband prices down

ability to generate hundreds of millions is vastly more important than employability

the dude is now a free lance money printer, regardless of what he does or says or who agrees or disagrees, they are all gonna pay to listen, if not with their wallets, then with their ad-views

by the same measure, a Don Lemon CNN tell-all is also a guaranteed best-seller, albeit with a much smaller audience, but it would make the list nonetheless
