I hope (and it seems likely to be so) that Trump's approach to Carlson is “Keep your friends close; keep your enemies closer.” Tucker Carlson is no friend.

I find you much more interesting and perceptive than Barri Weiss which is why I subscribe to The Editors and not her.

One should note that both Iran and Yemen use the slogan "Death to America". Yet Carlson agrees that "There needs to be an accommodation" with Iran. Carlson sounds more like a supporter of Barak Hussein Obama than of Donald John Trump.

Perhaps Media Matters could hire Carlson. He appears to be replicating the career arc of David Brock.

Why does Trump have anything to do with Carlson, much less reward him with such spotlight and honor?

He doesn’t need him.

I realize Trump’s positions on the Middle East are largely sterling, but he’s tarnished by the association.

I get that politics is politics, but there’s something wrong with rewarding Carlson and banning Pompeo.
