As Twitchy readers know, Tucker Carlson posted a pretty epic video on Twitter that already has tens of MILLIONS of views. Read that again, MILLIONS. Any idea how many viewers Fox News had in total last night? Gonna guess it wasn’t tens of millions.
Ahem.
Here you go, @elonmusk. About 9 million views in an hour and a half. You should hire Tucker Carlson for the first Twitter nightly news/opinion show, exclusive to Twitter Blue subscribers. https://t.co/as9ZMJdZIA

Shortly after Tucker dropped his video, #GoTucker (Go Tucker) started to trend and of course, that brought out the whiners who will never, ever have the impact or reach Tucker does. Most of them only have name recognition because they appeal to the lowest, and most hateful common denominator.
Take Ed Krassenstein for example:
I literally see hundreds of Tweets this morning saying things like "Thanks Tucker" or "Go Tucker". Let me be clear about one thing.
Tucker Carlson is an entertainer. He is an entertainer who stoops down to levels of bigotry. He is a liar who would tell people what they wanted to… pic.twitter.com/jZztmSa71J

When even a simple hashtag freaks them out? Tucker wins.
Again.
RAR RAR ARBLE BARGLE RAR! Poor guy.
Oh, and then there’s Media Matters’ CEO (yeah, who knew there was such a thing), Angelo Carusone who got all sorts of fussy and tried to hit both Tucker and Fox News. Look at him grasping at those straws – what a trooper.
So, Fox News execs kept a record of HR violations, misconduct and otherwise fireable offenses…and instead of doing anything about it, they let Fox staff endure these issues on off-chance they needed to blackmail Tucker one day?
This isn’t the own they think it is. https://t.co/VuNe96wGtx

There were plenty of other whiners on the trend:
"Go Tucker" All the fascist and racist people love them some Tucker. You do know you’re outing yourself pic.twitter.com/dfKtwGZcYh

You know, we would pay real money if just one of these lawn flamingoes would figure out how to meme.
Guy is a self admitted liar and people are still like… Go Tucker!
Y’all are all sorts of immoral, unhinged and goofy!🥴🫠 https://t.co/T0rkkMhnCl

Nice touch with the whole, folksy, ‘Y’all.’
Wanna bet she watches Rachel Maddow?
The ‘tag’ continues to trend so we will likely add more to this list of whiners as the day goes on.
Stay tuned!
