I was very disappointed in the interview for a variety of reasons. From the start the interview got lost into 2,000 years of Putin explaining who the Russians were, what happened in the past 2 millenniums, and why Ukraine was Russian territory. From that point forward Tucker was not able to get things back on track.
Unfortunately, it went downhill from there. Tucker started acting confrontational as if he was a clone of the main stream media, and was throwing the typical hardball questions that the major media would ask of an enemy of the US.
I was shocked and disappointed with that type of behavior which I found below Tucker’s standards and more inline with the mainstream’s globalist agenda. It was as if Tucker was trying to prove to the west, he was not a turncoat and not under the influence of Russia, and would prove it with hardball, pro-NATO questions.

There were only a very few moments when critical information was revealed from Putin to substantiate Russia’s stand on the issues. To add to the combative mood, Tucker asked nonsensical questions like “why wasn’t Putin talking to Biden or the west about ending the war”. I felt like Tucker just arrived from another planet and had no clue what actually happened in Ukraine and how the war started. I was embarrassed for him.

The Russians, including Putin by the way, sent numerous letters, statements, and phone calls to the west before the war started - that they were being threatened by this assault on the Donbas, and the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO and placing ICBM nuclear missiles on their border. This would give a warning time of hitting Moscow with nukes of 5 minutes.

Biden, the US Congress, the US military, all the European nations and NATO totally ignored the Russians appeal to avoid a confrontation. Before the so-called invasion of the Russians into Ukraine, the illegitimate coup government of Ukraine had already killed 14,000 innocent Russian speaking citizens, including hundreds of children, in the eastern provinces of the Donbas. Ukraine declared war on Russia and said they would attack Crimea, which has been a Russian naval port for over 300 years.
All of these facts were ignored by Tucker.

It begs the question, exactly who was Tucker identifying with? Who was he getting his questions from? The wealthy elite globalists? Or the main stream media that are the puppets of the military industrial complex?

I like Tucker Carlson, over-all he has been a breath of fresh air in the news media, and was even removed from his top position as a journalist because of his populist, pro-American stands. But in this case, the interview got derailed by these ill-advised questions and the style of interviewing which did not promote reality and the spirit of truth on the issues covered.

Perhaps Tucker wanted to make sure he didn’t appear like a Russian supporter and didn’t come across as a sycophant pro-Putin journalist. Whatever he was trying to accomplish, it didn’t work, and made matters worse. It ended up being a very boring 2-hour interview that didn’t include 5 minutes of valuable insight to help wake up the nations to what is truly going on.

To make matters worse, at the end he mentioned a convicted spy in a Russian prison that he almost demanded that Putin release. That action may have exposed the real motive behind Tuckers trip and interview in Moscow - so he could come back triumphantly to America with a released prisoner arm in arm, for a breaking world news photo-op.

By this time, I was groaning in disappointment with Tucker’s interview and felt that the only ones that benefited from this fiasco was the pro-war, pro-globalist propagandists. It did not help to end the war or heal the political gap between the west and the Russians. On the contrary it made things worse.

It was obvious to me that Tucker was trying to placate too many political sides and created an ill-advised set of questions in the interview - that produced a combative, chaotic, confusing and unproductive outcome. This is a sad conclusion I came up with that I didn’t expect or desire at all. In old fashioned cowboy terms, when you ride a horse at a rodeo, “sometimes you ride them out and sometimes you get thrown”. This time Tucker got thrown. But he can brush himself off and try again another day.

Tucker is part of a massive moment in the US to go back to American values and to stand against falsehoods and the globalist’s agendas. He can continue to be instrumental with this nation reimagining itself and to shake off the yoke of the ultra-liberals and the control of the wealthy elite. The next election is critical, if we can even survive until that time. George Eaton
