“The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.” Barack Obama
“No president should mock Islam.” Tucker Carlson
Media horseshoe theory holds that every former FOX News personality has to turn into a CNN personality, and Tucker Carlson who already had shows on MSNBC and CNN, is going full circle, seemingly urged on by his extensive time in wealthy Muslim nations.
At Turning Point USA, Tucker disavowed Charlie Kirk’s warning that “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”
Charlie Kirk: “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”
Tucker Carlson: “Attacking millions of Americans because they’re Muslims, it’s disgusting.”

Instead, he accused everyone of being Islamophobes, ranting that, “attacking millions of Americans because they’re Muslims, it’s disgusting. And I’m a Christian. I know there’s effort to claim I’m a secret Jihadi. I’m not. You should not attack on those grounds. And you’re seeing that from Republicans. What the hell are you doing?”
Tucker praised Islamic Sharia law and argued that, “I don’t know anyone in the United States in the last 24 years who’s been killed by radical Islam.”

Now we’re all the way up to Tucker randomly brandishing a bible in a profession of religion that seems almost as authentic as James Talarico’s act and whining that President Trump is mocking Islam, “No president should mock Islam. That’s not your job. This is not a theocracy.”

It used to be Tucker’s job to mock Islam. Then he decided to simp for it instead. Now Trump is doing the job that Tucker won’t do.
Tucker’s views have become indistinguishable from those of CNN, the New York Times and MSNBC. And a certain guy named Barry. “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.”
