The Russian leader was given the opportunity to expound familiar grievances unchallenged.

To be clear here, I actively hate what Tucker does. He's a symptom of a great sickness to society that causes more harm then anything else.

The only part of this that is Carlsons fault is that he took the interview and went to Russia. There's no other way this would have played out when a reporter does an interview of Putin. Carlson was likely in that room with nothing but Russian agents who let him know exactly what was going to happen before the interview.

Anything else could have easily resulted in Carlson never coming home.

Carlson never coming home.

If only.
