Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Texas) on Wednesday slammed former Fox News personality Tucker Carlson as a click-chaser and cowardly, know-nothing elitist who is full of s**t.
Crenshaws comments on X (formerly Twitter) came amid conservative backlash to Carlsons latest interview with Palestinian Christian pastor Munther Isaac in which Carlson talked about Christians affected by the Israel-Hamas war.
Tuckers MO is simple: defend Americas enemies and attack Americas allies, wrote Crenshaw. There isnt an objective bone left in that washed up news hosts body. Mindless contrarianism is his guiding principle, buttressed by his childish tactic to juSt aSK quEsTiOns!
Carlson, who is a frequent peddler of conspiracy theories, racist and far-right talking points, uses his platform to sow doubt and paranoia and false narratives to boost engagement and just make money, Crenshaw added.

But Carlson will eventually fade into nothingness, because his veneer of faux intellectualism is quickly falling apart and revealing who he truly is: a cowardly, know-nothing elitist who is full of shit, the lawmaker predicted.
This is who Tucker is: a click-chaser.
