Did you watch it? I’d rather fish for sturgeon with goldfish cracker for bait then watch that video of Putin droning all again. Tucker was so weak I was shocked.

Well, we get it that you are not a fan of either of them. With that said though, the interview was more coherent and intelligent than any interview ever with Biden or Trudeau. Putin may be a foe to the west, but his articulation and intellect outshines the western leaders. You could argue his judgement on isolating Russia is very flawed though. Trust isn't a virtue he wears well either.

I enjoyed watching the inter view
Putin is straight forward seems to have intelligent answers
Maybe people will think differently of what is really happening in Ukraine
The us is not always right you know

73 million views on Twitter as of now it looks like:



That’s a lot of people. Looks like it is working… For Tucker. Lol. Good for him.

PS I haven’t watched it myself yet. I probably will at some point.

Hope not....Putin is a mad man and if not for NATO particular the US as a huge push back this mad man would run amuck globally in no time at all.

Love or hate Tucker, it appears he's giving A LOT of people exactly what they're interested in seeing.

Remember when the local news used to do that, instead of telling and showing you what THEY want you to hear and see?

China concerns me more than Putin. They are not above using biological warfare to gain power.

I'm sorry, you're totally right and I take it back. We should filter everything the masses see, and only give them what we feel is non- circus-like.

Just clicking on the link and starting to watch counts as a view however.

I suspect some came to see Tucker slam Putin like he does in his interviews of democrats and people he doesn’t like. Instead he gave full control to Putin and looked scared doing it.

Scoping out what the world views are saying I was surprised Aljazeera slammed the interview so hard. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/...lson-interview


Let’s face it. This wasn’t a Tucker interview… it was Putin holding a propaganda session with Tucker wetting himself.

Tucker has had some great interviews and videos over the years. This one was a waste. He could of been truly famous if he asked hard journalism questions and challenged Putin on facts. Anyone could of done this interview and the fact Putin has repeatedly turned down interviews with actual journalists is telling what he this of this guy.

[trapperdodge]

A Putin puff piece complete with scripted questions. It'll sell well in Russia. Tucker is an influencer, nothing more.

[W921]

In the first part of interview it sounds like because Soviets have exploited people in area for so long they feel justified to keep doing it? Ukraine is huge food producer but yet my understanding is they have actually been starved in past because Moscow took all their food .
We think Ottawa is bad but Moscow would be way worse.

Interesting. So you feel Putin took the opportunity to reach the world and tell his side of what he calls 'the truth'.
Strangely, Tucker's people have apparently tried to offer the same interview opportunity to Zalensky, with no reply.
Is that telling of the dancing queen?

Of coarse they do, and Putin still considers Ukraine a part of his imaginary USSR; an area there for the taking.

Kind of like how Trudeau feels about Alberta.

Really why would you expect any different. I doubt Putin was going to agree to an interview with a reporter to let them drag him through the mud. Tucker did this interview because he new it would be controversial and get attention not to get facts

The sad thing is we are never going to get the truth regarding Russia and present conflict. We will only hear bias information from NATO or Russia when odds are there is information both are hiding

Yeah they are a super power too.

Global balancing act to prevent a full on war globally.

China already has us by the short hairs, all they have to do is institute a trade embargo with north america and where would we be? Virtually everything is produced there, we wouldn't even have new shoes on the shelves in a weeks time.

Imagine if NATO was around in 1939 when Russia and their Nazi partners started WW2 by invading Poland? A lot of blood shed could have been prevented if they had helped the Poles stand up to the invasion. The Russians used the excuse that they were helping ethnic Russians in Poland in 1939 exactly as they are doing today with the Ukraine. Useful idiots like Tucker need to go back to school and learn some history.

[W921]

What are these wars really about? Remember east coast Mafia 80 years ago in new York,Jersey, etc?
I'm starting to look at governments as mob families fighting each other for control of territory. Is this wrong way for me to look at things? I'm just seeing less and less good guys in positions of power. Maybe I'm just getting old and getting bad attitude?

China doesn't need all out war, just look at how effective covid was to gain them power, China was likely the only country to benefit from it.

I'm still watching this interview as I write this but Soviet took a lot of territory from NE China years ago when China was weak. All these Soviet arguments for taking Ukraine back .Well China can make same claim against the Soviets and take their territory back.
China probably bigger threat down the road to Soviets than NATO. Longer this drags on the weaker Soviets become to Chinese.
All of this seems to be about territories to insure access to markets. Resources seem less important than market access.

I would love to see the historic evidence that… wait for it… Soviet Union of Socialist Republics ruled by… wait for it… a Georgian dictator who spoke broken Russian sent an Army led by two commanders, one of which was… wait for it… Ukrainian to help ethnic Russians in Poland in 1939. How crazy is that?!

Do you dispute that many reputable and well known media have been asking Putin since the start of the war for and interview and he has continually said no?

[pinelakeperch]

I find it so amusing to see the same people that label Trudeau a dictator salivate over an actual, genuine dictator. It’s terrific theatre.

[WayneChristie]

listen to Trudeau for 1 minute, any topic. listen to Biden for 1 minute, any topic. listen to Putin for 1 minute, any topic. scared yet? btw look at a map of military bases around the world right now, tell me who wants to conquer the world?

Not at all.

Do you not think it odd for Zalensky to refuse the same opportunity Tucker gave Putin, which was to reach potentially 100's of millions of people?
Not that I think as many would watch that one...
