Political views of Tucker Carlson

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


American political commentator Tucker Carlson has been described in the media as a conservative[1][2] or paleoconservative.[3][4] Despite often being attributed as such, Carlson himself rejects being a populist, saying populism is a "symptom of something being wrong" with society at-large.[5] Carlson has described white supremacy as a "hoax" and that modern American politics is a "class war disguised as [a] race war."[6] Since the beginning of Tucker Carlson Tonight in 2016, he has regularly expressed anti-interventionalist views on such countries as Iran and Syria.[7][8]

Writing for New York magazine's Intelligencer, Park MacDougald called Carlson a "Middle American radical," which he described as someone who holds populist economic beliefs; hostility to corporatocracy; fervent positions on nationalism, race, and immigration; and a preference for a strong U.S. president. MacDougald identified this form of radicalism as the ideological core of Trumpism.[9] Glenn Greenwald described Carlson as a "socialist," an ideology Carlson has repeatedly denounced and warned of, summarizing his brand of conservatism as wanting to "close our borders, not allow unconstrained immigration, and then take better care of our own working-class people and not allow this kind of transnational, global, corporatist elite to take everything for themselves under the guise of neoliberalism."[10]

Defense[edit]

In March 2021, Carlson criticized changes to the U.S. military to accommodate female soldiers under the Biden administration, such as "new hairstyles and maternity flight suits". He characterized President Joe Biden as wanting to make the military "more feminine", even while "China’s military becomes more masculine". The changes made a "mockery of the U.S. military", Carlson said. For these remarks, Carlson was criticized by Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby, Sergeant Major of the Army Michael A. Grinston, United States Space Command enlisted leader Scott H. Stalker, and other military leaders.[11][12][13]

Economics[edit]

2007 Ron Paul event

Early in his career, Carlson espoused a libertarian view of economics. He supported Ron Paul's 1988 presidential candidacy, when Paul ran as the candidate for the Libertarian Party, along with his 2008 presidential candidacy, when Paul ran as a Republican.[14][15]

In 2009, Carlson became a senior fellow at libertarian think tank the Cato Institute.[16] As of 2017, he is no longer affiliated with the organization.[17]

Since 2018, he has promoted a more populist view of economics,[18] attacking libertarianism, and saying "market capitalism is not a religion."[19]

In an interview, he warned that economic and technological change that occurs too quickly can cause widespread social and political upheaval, and stated his belief that a model to follow is that of President Theodore Roosevelt, whose interventionist role in the economy in the early 1900s may have, in Carlson's view, prevented a communist revolution in the United States.[20]

In 2019, in his monologue on Tucker Carlson Tonight, Carlson said America's "ruling class" are, in effect, the "mercenaries" behind the decline of the American middle class:

[A]ny economic system that weakens and destroys families is not worth having. A system like that is the enemy of a healthy society.[21]

He also criticized what he called the "private equity model" of capitalism, using the example of Bain Capital to describe a pattern of corporate behavior in such organizations:

Take over an existing company for a short period of time, cut costs by firing employees, run up the debt, extract the wealth and move on, sometimes leaving retirees without their earned pensions ... Meanwhile, a remarkable number of the companies are now bankrupt or extinct.[22]

He attacked payday lenders for "loan[ing] people money they can't possibly repay ... [and] charg[ing] them interest that impoverishes them."[22]

Carlson has also praised Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren's economic plan and her book The Two Income Trap as "one of the best books I've ever read on economics."[23][24]

Foreign policy[edit]

Carlson in 2012

Carlson is skeptical of foreign intervention, and has said "the U.S. ought to hesitate before intervening abroad."[25]

China[edit]

Carlson has said normalization of relations with China following President Richard Nixon's 1972 visit led to unforeseen consequences, and that America became progressively worse off for it.[26] He criticized LeBron James for speaking out against Daryl Morey, the latter having tweeted in support of the 2019–20 Hong Kong protests,[27][28] and referred to former CEO of The Walt Disney Company, Bob Iger, as a "propagandist" for the Chinese Communist Party.[26]

Iran[edit]

In July 2017, Carlson said that "[w]e actually don't face any domestic threat from Iran." He asked Max Boot to "tell me how many Americans in the United States have been murdered by terrorists backed by Iran since 9/11?"[29] According to The New York Times, Carlson played an influential role in dissuading Trump from launching military strikes against Iran in response to the shooting down of an American drone in June 2019. Carlson reportedly told Trump that if he listened to his hawkish advisors and went ahead with the strikes, he would not win re-election.[30]

Carlson referred to the 2020 assassination of Qasem Soleimani as a "quagmire." He criticized the "chest-beaters" who promote foreign interventions, particularly Senator Ben Sasse (R-NE), and asked, "By the way, if we're still in Afghanistan, 19 years, sad years, later, what makes us think there's a quick way out of Iran?"[31]

Iraq[edit]

Carlson initially supported the Iraq War. However, a year after the invasion of Iraq, he began criticizing the war, telling The New York Observer: "I think it's a total nightmare and disaster, and I'm ashamed that I went against my own instincts in supporting it."[32]

Mexico[edit]

Carlson supported the proposed expansion of the Mexico–United States barrier – citing the Israeli West Bank barrier as an example. Carlson argued:[33]

The estimated cost of a border wall is about $25 billion. That is estimated so let's say it is twice that. That is still a tiny fraction of the price of the pointless stalemate we're now waging in Afghanistan. That costs about $45 billion every year, not including the human cost. Compare that to $25 billion needed to restore sovereignty with the wall.

In a July 2018 interview about Russian involvement in U.S. elections, Carlson said Mexico has interfered in U.S. elections "more successfully" than Russia by "packing our electorate" through mass immigration.[34] This assertion was disputed by journalist Philip Bump, who wrote that the number of Mexicans in the U.S. had decreased since 2009 and asked rhetorically: "What good has it done Mexico to have a number of its citizens move to the United States and gain the right to vote?".[35]

In May 2019, Carlson defended Trump's decision to place tariffs on Mexico unless Mexico stopped illegal immigration to the United States. Carlson said, "When the United States is attacked by a hostile foreign power it must strike back, and make no mistake Mexico is a hostile foreign power."[36]

North Korea[edit]

When President Trump met the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un at the country's border with the South in June 2019, Carlson told Fox & Friends said "there's no defending the North Korean regime, it’s the last real Stalinist regime in the world. It’s a disgusting place obviously", but "you've got to be honest about what it means to lead a country, it means killing people."[37] Carlson went on to argue that although "not on the scale that the North Koreans do, but a lot of countries commit atrocities, including a number that [the United States] are closely allied with."[38][39][40][41]

Russia[edit]

Carlson has said he does not consider Russia a serious threat to the United States.[29] He has called for the United States to work with Russia in the American-led intervention in the Syrian Civil War against a common enemy like the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS).[42][43] Peter Beinart of The Atlantic said Carlson has been an "apologist for Donald Trump on the Russia scandal."[29] Carlson described the controversy in the wake of revelations that Donald Trump Jr. was willing to accept anti-Clinton information from a Russian government official as a "new level of hysteria" and said that Trump Jr. had only been "gossiping with foreigners."[29]

In May 2019, after Robert Mueller gave a statement saying the Special Counsel investigation on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election didn't exonerate Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, Carlson called Mueller "sleazy and dishonest."[44] At the beginning of December 2019, Carlson stated "the irony, of course, is that Putin, for all his faults, does not hate America as much as many of these people do," referring to liberals. "They really dislike our country. And they call other people traitors because they’re mouthing the talking points of Putin."[45][46]

Syria[edit]

Carlson opposes overthrowing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.[29] In April 2018, Carlson questioned whether Assad was responsible for the Douma chemical attack that had occurred a few days earlier and killed dozens.[47][48] In November 2019, Carlson repeated this claim and queried whether the attack had actually happened at all.[49]

Carlson suggested that a similar attack that occurred the year before (the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack), which was attributed to Assad's forces and which the OPCW JIM indicated was carried out with sarin that bore the regime's signature, was a false flag attack perpetrated to falsely implicate the Assad government. Carlson compared Assad's war crimes during the Syrian Civil War to Saudi Arabia's war crimes in Yemen.[47]

Immigration and race[edit]

Immigrants' Rights Rally in Washington Mall, 2006

Carlson is a frequent critic of immigration.[50] Carlson has been accused by Erik Wemple of The Washington Post and by writers for Vox of demonizing immigrants, both legal and illegal.[51][52][53][54] Terry Smith, a law professor at St. Thomas University, has characterized Carlson's rhetoric as an example of white identity politics.[55] According to University of Michigan professor Alexandra Stern, Carlson propagates demographic fear.[56]

He has opposed demographic changes in the United States, writing in 2018 about Hazleton, Pennsylvania, where over a 15-year period the percentage of Hispanics shifted from a small minority to a majority. Carlson believed it was "more change than human beings are designed to digest."[54] In 2018, Carlson suggested that mass immigration makes the United States "dirtier", "poorer" and "more divided."[57][58] In response to criticism of this, he has said that "we're not intimidated" and "we plan to try to say what's true until the last day. And the truth is, unregulated mass immigration has badly hurt this country's natural landscape."[59]

Of illegal immigration, Carlson said in May 2019, "The flood of illegal workers into the United States has damaged our communities, ruined our schools, burdened our healthcare system and fractured our national unity."[36] In December 2019, he falsely claimed that immigrants were responsible for making the Potomac River "dirtier and dirtier."[60][61]

Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center said that "Carlson probably has been the No. 1 commentator mainstreaming bedrock principles of white nationalism in [the U.S.]," and accused him of promoting the white genocide conspiracy theory, the idea that white people are under attack by minorities and immigrants.[62] Critics have accused Carlson's show of promoting racism, a charge which he has denied.[63][64] Neoconservative pundit Bill Kristol described the views Carlson expressed on his show with these words, "I don’t know if it’s racism exactly — but ethno-nationalism of some kind, let’s call it."[65] Carlson responded that Kristol had "discredited himself years ago."[66] Carlson has denied being a racist and has said he hates racism.[67]

In call-in segments Carlson made from 2006 to 2008 on the radio show Bubba the Love Sponge, Carlson said Iraq was not worth invading because it was a country made up of "semi-literate primitive monkeys" who "don't use toilet paper or forks." He also criticized "lunatic Muslims who are behaving like animals," and said that any presidential candidate who vowed to "kill as many of them as [they] can" would be "elected king." Recordings of these segments were released online in March 2019 by the progressive Media Matters for America. The Washington Post labeled these comments racist.[68]

When Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican nominee for president, condemned then-candidate Donald Trump after he evaded questions about former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke's support,[69] saying it was a "disqualifying and disgusting response," Carlson criticized Romney and dismissed his speech by suggesting "Obama could have written" it.[70] In a guest appearance with Alex Jones in 2015, he described the Obama administration: "They categorize people by race in a way that, you know, you can't even imagine – 30 years ago you would have said, 'Wait a second, that's like Nazi stuff'".[71]

South Africa (2018)[edit]

In August 2018, Carlson ran a segment in which he alleged that the South African government was targeting white farmers during its ongoing land reform efforts due to anti-white racism.[72][73][74] He interviewed Marian Tupy, an analyst at the Cato Institute, who likened South African farmers facing land seizures to white farmers in Zimbabwe who lost their farms in a controversial land reform policy under the President Robert Mugabe.[75] He accused South African President Cyril Ramaphosa of changing the country's constitution to allegedly enable land theft from whites because "they are the wrong skin color."[76]

CBS News, Associated Press, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal described Carlson's segment on South Africa's corrective reparations as false or misleading. In addition to presenting statistics that violence against farmers had reached an all-time low, they noted that the reforms had yet to pass and were primarily aimed at land that had fallen into disuse.[77][73][74][78][76][79][80]

Following the Carlson segment, President Trump tweeted that he had instructed Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to "closely study the South Africa land and farm seizure and large scale killing of farmers."[72][73][74] Trump's tweet was denounced as "'misinformed'" by the South African government, which stated that it would address the matter through diplomatic channels. AfriForum, a South African non-governmental organization focused mainly on the interests of Afrikaners, took credit for Carlson and Trump's statements, saying it believed that its campaign to influence American politics had succeeded.[74]

The evening following the segment, Carlson corrected the statements he had made about the South African land reform, though he did not admit to having made errors. He said the proposed constitutional amendment was still being debated in South Africa and added that no farms had yet been expropriated. Carlson later stated in an interview that he "doesn't believe anyone should be rewarded or punished based upon characteristics they can't control" and added that his South Africa segment made "an argument against tribalism."[76]

Ilhan Omar (2019)[edit]

Carlson concluded Tucker Carlson Tonight on July 9, 2019, with a 3-minute monologue about Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), calling her ungrateful to the United States, where she had been granted asylum, and calling her "living proof that the way we practice immigration has become dangerous to this country." His monologue was described by The Guardian as "racially loaded" and "full of anti-immigrant rhetoric."[81] Congresswoman Omar responded on Twitter, saying that "advertisers should not be underwriting this kind of dangerous, hateful rhetoric."[82] In its July 10 article on the incident, The Daily Beast commented that, mainly because of "right-wing attacks that have then been amplified by members of Congress and the president," Omar has been receiving death threats since she was elected to Congress.[83] According to the article, while Carlson "has devoted numerous segments" of his show to criticizing her, this time Carlson "took his anti-Omar stance even further."[83]

El Paso shooting (2019)[edit]

Several days after the 2019 El Paso shooting, which was committed by a man who released an anti-immigrant manifesto complaining of a "Hispanic invasion," Carlson described white supremacy as a "hoax" and "a conspiracy theory used to divide the country and keep a hold on power." He asked rhetorically, "the combined membership of every white supremacist group in America — would they be able to fit inside a college football stadium?"[84][85][86] According to The Washington Post, "Carlson's argument is belied by many experts and seemingly contradicted by a recent wave of deadly attacks by men motivated by those views."[87]

Black Lives Matter and George Floyd (2020–21)[edit]

In June 2020, Carlson cast doubts on the intentions of Black Lives Matter protestors in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd, stating: "This may be a lot of things, this moment we're living through, but it is definitely not about black lives, and remember that when they come for you, and at this rate, they will." Although Fox News stated that Carlson was referring to Democratic leaders and not protesters, Carlson's comments on Black Lives Matter were met with rebuke. Advertisers including The Walt Disney Company, Papa John's, Poshmark, and T-Mobile stopped advertising on Carlson's program. In other comments, Carlson argued that the unrest following Floyd's killing stemmed from a desire for ideological domination, rather than genuine opposition to police brutality.[88][89][90][91]

On February 10, 2021, Carlson claimed that "there was no physical evidence that George Floyd was murdered by a cop" and that "the autopsy showed that George Floyd almost certainly died of a drug overdosefentanyl", but this conflicted with the findings of two autopsies that he died from homicide caused by former police officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on Floyd’s neck for more than eight minutes. While Floyd did have drugs in his system when he died, medical professionals determined that it was not the cause of his death.[92][93][94]

Social views[edit]

Carlson is pro-life and has voiced opposition to capital punishment, calling it "morally disturbing" and affirming he's "not comfortable with the death penalty under any circumstances".[95][96][97]

Environment[edit]

On his show, Carlson frequently hosts guests who downplay the scientific consensus on climate change,[98] and he has also done that repeatedly himself.[99][100][101][102]

Views on Republicans and Democrats[edit]

Carlson with Charlie Kirk, 2018

Carlson did not vote in the 2004 presidential election, citing his disgust with the Iraq War; his disillusionment with the once small-government Republican Party; and his disappointment with President George W. Bush and like-minded conservatives:[103]

I don't know what you consider conservative, but I'm not much of a 'liberal,' at least as the word is currently defined. For instance, I'm utterly opposed to abortion, which I think is horrible and cruel. I think affirmative action is wrong. I'd like to slow immigration pretty dramatically. I hate all nanny-state regulations, such as seat belt laws and smoking bans. I'm not for big government. I think the U.S. ought to hesitate before intervening abroad. I think these are conservative impulses. So by my criteria, Bush isn't much of a conservative.[103]

In 2003, speaking about John McCain and his failed 2000 presidential bid, Carlson stated:

I liked McCain. And I would have voted for McCain for president happily, not because I agree with his politics; I never took McCain's politics seriously enough even to have strong feelings about them. I don't think McCain has very strong politics. He's interested in ideas almost as little as George W. Bush is. McCain isn't intellectual and doesn't have a strong ideology at all. He's wound up sort of as a liberal Republican because he's mad at other Republicans, not because he's a liberal.[104]

During the 2008 presidential election, Carlson expressed dismay at what he saw as the utilization of identity politics by the Democratic Party, saying during a radio interview, "that's one of the reasons I despise the Democrats because they're always rolling that crap out. 'Well, you don't like him because he's black. You don't like her because she's a woman.'”[105] Years later, Carlson would call Barack Obama "one of the sleaziest and most dishonest figures in the history of American politics," accusing him of exploiting race for electoral gain ahead of the 2020 presidential election.[106]

When Donald Trump was still just a candidate in the 2016 Republican Party presidential primaries, Carlson celebrated his candidacy as a "reaction to the intellectual corruption of the Republican Party," and criticized the Never Trump movement within the party for disrepecting the will of Republican voters supporting him.[107] Though he would support him throughout his presidency, he would vent in December 2018 to Die Weltwoche, a Swiss magazine, that Trump "knows very little about the legislative process, hasn’t learned anything, hasn’t surrounded himself with people that can get it done, [and] hasn’t done all the things you need to do".[108]

In January 2019, Carlson used a Washington Post op-ed by Mitt Romney to criticize what he described as the "mainstream Republican" worldview, consisting of "unwavering support for a finance-based economy and an internationalist foreign policy," which he argued was also supported by the bulk of Democrats.[22] He cited parallels, in regard to economic and social problems which had befallen inner cities and rural areas, despite cultural and demographic differences between their respective populations, as evidence that the "culture of poverty," which had been cited by conservatives as the cause of urban decline, "wasn't the whole story:"

[Both parties] miss the obvious point: Culture and economics are inseparably intertwined. Certain economic systems allow families to thrive. Thriving families make market economies possible.[22]

Prior to 2020, Carlson was a registered member of the Democratic Party in Washington, D.C.[109] In 2017, Carlson said his registration as a Democrat was to gain the right to vote in the primaries for mayoral elections in the district, "a one-party state", and that he "always votes for the more corrupt candidate over the idealist" in order to favor the status quo and stem progressivism.[110] By 2020, Carlson registered as a Republican in his newly-adopted residency of Florida.[111][112]

Views on notable events[edit]

2021 storming of United States Capitol[edit]

In February 2021, Merrick Garland stated during his confirmation hearing to become attorney general that he would "supervise the prosecution of white supremacists and others who stormed the Capitol on January 6." Carlson later played video of the statement on his program and responded, "This was not a moderate statement. It was dishonest. Completely dishonest. Dishonest enough you should be worried about it. There’s no evidence that white supremacists were responsible for what happened on January 6th. That’s a lie.” There is evidence of involvement in the riot at the U.S. Capitol by several white supremacists, including from court records and congressional testimony by Capitol Hill law enforcement leaders. Analysis by Philip Bump writing for The Washington Post noted that Carlson was blurring the lines between "being involved" and "being responsible for" to create a strawman in an effort to "undercut the public understanding of what happened and, by extension, to soften the implications for Trump and his supporters."[113][114][115][116]

Claims of fraud in the 2020 election[edit]

After Joe Biden won the 2020 election, Carlson raised the issue of fraud in the 2020 election.[117][118][119][120] On Carlson's show, he mentioned the names of purportedly dead individuals who voted in Georgia; investigative reporting subsequently found that some of the individuals who he claimed to be dead were in fact alive.[121]

Later that month, Carlson cast doubt on unfounded conspiratorial claims made by former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell, who alleged that Venezuela, Cuba and unidentified communist interests had used a secret algorithm to hack into voting machines and commit widespread electoral fraud.[122] Carlson said that "what Powell was describing would amount to the single greatest crime in American history", but that Powell became "angry and told us to stop contacting her" when he asked for evidence of widespread voter fraud.[122]

COVID-19 pandemic[edit]

Carlson has criticized government officials and other media for not taking the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States seriously enough, while blaming China for causing the pandemic.[123][124] On March 9, 2020, Carlson opened his show by saying, "People you trust, people you probably voted for, have spent weeks minimizing what is clearly a very serious problem.… But they're wrong. It's definitely not just the flu."[125] Two anonymous sources in the White House told The Washington Post that Carlson's statements had caused President Donald Trump to reconsider his position.[125] Carlson also told Vanity Fair that he spoke to Trump and encouraged him to take the coronavirus outbreak seriously.[126][123]

Carlson criticized the lockdown in the United States brought on by the pandemic and NIAID director Anthony Fauci.[127] He defended the protests against the nationwide lockdown within rural areas of the country, stating "[n]ot everywhere is New York or New Jersey. The threat to rural America from this virus is minuscule, so why are we punishing the people who live outside the cities?"[128]
