My take on the Huckabee Carlson Debate

 


You know what I learned from Mike Huckabee's interview with Tucker Carlson?

If you are an antisemite who is being paid by Qatar to disseminate lies about Israel- and you do it all day every day, you're not going to turn into a well-researched, regulated and fair journalist all of a sudden.

Carlson came as advertised.Disgusting. Spitting lies. Disrespectful. Ignorant.

He barely let the ambassador talk. Cutting him off, twisting his words, bla bla bla.

Many people are applauding Huckabee's answers. Many are applauding Carlson's bombastic insanity.

I'm wondering what people think- was it worth it to have this whole spectacle?

Was this something that we could consider a win, or epic fail?

My opinion is that not all news is good news for the Jews.

This partisan, nasty rhetoric spills back on all of us, and sends Carlson's fans deeper into the antisemitic madness that leaves them foaming at the mouth.

Maybe Huckabee got in a couple decent soundbites- but echo chambers all over the internet are just cutting the ones from each of them, that make the other look like a buffoon and throwing themselves a party and posting them online.
