As of 11p CDT...23,300,000 views.

Charles may be lucky to get that many viewers...

Who does he think he is, Kanye?

Tucker’s secret is to be talented and actually principled, regardless of the collection of sound bites of the dumbest seconds among the thousands of hours of talking.

@Horace

Given the mismatch between what he says in private texts and what he does/says on air, I'd say that principle is “whatever it takes to get viewers”.

Seen all of his private emails?

[jon-nyc]

Every single one of them, including the flirty one he just sent this morning to Stormy Daniels.

He's a wonderful bunch of guys.

Can Twitter support long form video?

[jon-nyc]

I don't know what the limit is to video uploads, I bet it's pretty large. I also think Musk would grow it for a chance to 'host' the Tucker show.

[Axtremus]

Twitter not built to host or serve videos.
Host the videos somewhere else, then link to the videos from tweets.

Say, does Tucker have a presence on Truth Social?

Better yet, Carlson's Corner. Tucker and a guest discussing a single issue, 20 minutes or less per video (complex issues may require a series of videos). CC will also feature guest hosts that will occasionally do a video, same one on one format. Or maybe you have Tucker as the moderator in a point/counterpoint discussion between two people.

Lots of possibilities....

Onlyfans is my bet.

Projecting fantasies?

Men in tweeds and loafers have always driven me wild.

It's really an untapped resource for the upper-class Brit-wannabees like Tucker who appear to thrive out here in the colonies.

[Horace]

"Steel man Tucker Carlson and his success" would be an impossible task for any lefty on this board. Sad.

[Copper]

Most nights Tucker would show a topic that nobody else was showing.

Not just right or left, nobody.

And most of these topics were noteworthy.

But they were ignored by everyone else.

He was on to something, very similar to Mr. Trump 6 years ago.

It's true that he's a win-oriented person, but it's also true, if one listens to him in free form conversation, that he's a thoughtful person.

I've recently heard it said that the difference between Fox and MSNBC, is that Fox knows when it's lying. That resonates.

Understand, Tucker is a Libertarian. Different viewpoints.

Another at FOX, er, still at FOX, is Kat Timpf. Every now and then she'll host Gutfeld! and she has some views unlike almost anybody else you'll hear.
