I've only watched the first 15 minutes or so.
The shocking thing is how quiet Carlson has been. He's just letting Vivek talk.

I'm not sure if I agree with everything he says, but his ability to express his views and articulate the logic behind them is pretty impressive.
Make America Great Again!No slogans...I'd be interested to hear what some of our left-leaning members thing about this interview.

I'll give it a try in the morning. He's so clean and articulate.

He sure can talk. To be honest, what he doesn't sound like is a President. He sounds like the marketing guy in the engineering meeting. I've been to a lot of those meetings. They make everything sound so easy and achievable, but as soon as you leave you know nothing's going to happen.
Check out the bit at 36:10. Tucker's weird. The reaction to the gay question was one of the gayest things I've ever seen.
There's no way on earth he's getting elected.

It seems the world has forgotten about Nikki Haley.

The tension between gay and trans is talked about quite often by Andrew Sullivan.

A bit like blacks and hispanics?

Well, more like young gays are being told they’re really trans now. And data that show, before the youth transition craze started, the majority of gender dysphoric youth and up getting over the dysphoria and being gay adults.

His take on the Russia Ukraine war is just plain wrong. Clueless.

His views on that war all seem based on the notion that the US has little self-interest in the conflict.

But they aren't necessarily mental cases.

Indeed and he is quite mistaken in holding to that notion.

I’d like to see him own it then, in all its implications. Don’t just say “we don’t have an interest in Ukraine”, say “I don’t mind if Russia rebuilds its empire”.

Well-put.

He doesn't really talk like he'd just let Russia roll wherever it pleases. He starts talking about it at 30:00.

Listened to him from 30:00 until the yak about populism started. He proposes an armistice along the lines of Korea but takes NATO off the table as means of enforcing or guaranteeing the peace. He also has some naive notions about Russia agreeing to stop meddling in third countries and withdrawing nuclear weapons from the Kaliningrad enclave. I won’t even bother to comment on his thoughts about Sino-Russian relations and Taiwan.
He really needs to be briefed on the reality of the world beyond his corporate offices let alone the borders the USA.

A "light weight," then.
