To be fair, he’s Russia’s clown in America, and he just happened to have a state sponsored vacation in Russia. No one in America wants him either, which is why he has his own thing now.
You understand Putin called him out as a failed CIA asset for the entire world to see right? What this interview was in my opinion was Tucker APPLYING to be a Russian stooge and hilariously failing because Putin would never hire someone with past and current ties to the CIA.
One theory I heard is that Tucker was auditioning for Trump’s VP pick, which is not a contradiction at all among certain factions of the CIA.
If he had somehow managed to get very positive responses from Putin, he could leverage that to boost his credentials as a “serious candidate” and reinforce Trump’s platform on the Ukraine war. Although I don’t know if Trump’s ego would allow that.
Either way Putin clearly didn’t give him the win he was looking for at all lol.
(I still think the main reason the Republicans are so opposed to the Ukraine war is because they don’t have the money laundering fronts set up in Ukraine like the Democrats do, so they are seething at the Democrats blatantly transferring billions of dollars there and benefiting from it)
I didn’t say he was good at being Russia’s clown. He’s just very pro-Russia for very wrong reasons. He wants to be used by Russia for money. He doesn’t care about anything except what he can get for himself. He’s just a whore that no one wants but he hopes Russia is willing to pay for.
