David Bauder - Did Fox’s Tucker Carlson play role in calming Iran pressure?

Tucker Carlson again!

Trump, who announced his decision not to retaliate against Iran’s missile strikes in a nationally televised address 14 hours later, told some close to him that he watched Carlson’s show, according to BuzzFeed News. He told confidants in recent days that Carlson’s strong advocacy not to escalate the situation in Iran played a role in his decision-making, two White House officials and Republicans close to the West Wing told The Associated Press on Thursday.

He has Tulsi on all the time...

Tucker is pretty libertarian which anti-war goes with that bias...

Shoots guns... probably favors gold for munnie, etc..

something about metals with the libertarians they are queer for metals or something...

some actually EAT the silver... weird-o-rama....

Tucker has warned Trump that war with Iran will cost him the election. How many pundits at Fox have said the same?

Hannity is coming around on it too..

libertarian has a lot of anti-war associated with it...

Hannity shoots too...

they are all anti-war but they shoot guns all the time...

Here's Carlson:

"A1F: What’s your favorite style of shooting?

Carlson: Oh, sporting clays maybe. I have a great range over a river here on this property. I also love shooting bowling pins over on my rifle range. My current obsession is carbines in pistol cartridges. My favorite carbine right now is a Henry. A Beretta 9mm carbine I have, a Cx4 Storm, is a blast to shoot. I have a ton of steel—my favorite is heavy and shaped like a trout."

Gun nutters are no worse than soccer fans. The latter tend to be more violent.
