Tucker Carlson: Democratic Party Is ‘Unrecognizable’

DC: Fox News host Tucker Carlson used his Monday opening segment to argue that “Trump Derangement Syndrome” sufferers are willing to take any position, as long as it’s the opposite of President Trump’s.

Carlson, The Daily Caller co-founder, made the case that Democrats are now “unrecognizable.”

“Smallpox, the bubonic plague, the Spanish flu — those are some of the diseases that have changed the course of history over the last few thousand years,” Carlson said. “Here’s a new one … Trump Derangement Syndrome is a particularly insidious illness because it doesn’t affect individuals but entire entire political parties, rendering them unrecognizable. Until about 20 minutes ago, for example, the Democrats saw themselves as the party of reason, resistant to superstition and mass hysteria.”

“They were, as they often told you, the party that fought McCarthyism. Now, it’s the party that engages in McCarthyism, enthusiastically.”  WATCH

  1. I know what the enemy sounds like when I hear it.

    And especially when lifelong commiesymps are trying to gaslight me over redbaiting.

    If Trump worked for the Russians, they would have voted for him.

  2. The Democrat party did not change when Trump was elected – it changed probably under LBJ and his Great Society programs. That was the movement from personal liberty to socialism, interrupted only by Reagan and now Trump. Even Republican Presidents such as Nixon, George H.W. Bush and George Bush had socialist leanings and worked closely with Democrats.

    What started Democrats truly coming off of the rails was the TEA party. Obama was bamboozling the useful idiots with his “Hope and Change” bullshit and oh-so-close to truly nationalizing health care, but the TEA party movement was just strong enough that the Democrats were losing local and state offices by the hundreds, Democrats were losing seats in the House and Senate, and despite his personal popularity, Obama’s legislative agenda was slowed down. This was in spite of the Democrats having a choke hold on public education, which was churning out left leaning zombies by the millions. The TEA party, which was never an organized political party, kept the Democrats roughly in check during the Obama disaster and was frequently as vilified as Trump is now.

    Hillary Clinton was basically to be anointed as President and get the Democrat’s left wing agenda moving again. Of the 16 or 17 candidates in the Republican primary, only Donald Trump had the will to obstruct the decades long Democrat move to socialism, and thus became the Democrats worst nightmare when he was elected President. For Democrats, Trump was a Democrat disaster because Trump is blunt, Trump is not politically correct, Trump is smart, and Trump has the support of millions of Americans although many won’t admit this in public. Trump also doesn’t mind antagonizing Democrats and leftists.

    The Democrats did not develop TDS, or more accurately just a derangement syndrome over night; Trump’s election just unmasked the ugliness that was already there. This in and of itself is a huge set back to the Democrats, and has split the party into leftists, who will never compromise their agenda, and moderates who are wondering if they have been fooled.

  3. Wyatt, well said. I’d like to add it wouldn’t have mattered if any of the GOP field was President instead of Trump, the madness would still be there. Cruz Derangement Syndrome, Rubio Derangement, etc etc.

    I had to look…I couldn’t just walk away…

    Tricking people into clicking on something that seemed innocuous and getting goatse preceded the “Rick roll” by several years.
