Tucker lays out the Biden administration’s apparent plans for Americans to suffer and sacrifice so we can stick it to Putin, but not specifically why we should stick it to Putin or what the costs might look like.
Highlights include:
“Since the day that Donald Trump became president, democrats in Washington have told you you have a patriotic duty to hate Vladimir Putin. It’s not a suggestion, it’s a mandate. Anything less than hatred for Putin is treason.”
“Very soon, that hatred of Vladimir Putin could bring the United States into a conflict in Eastern Europe. Before that happens, it might be worth asking yourself, ‘What is this really about?'”
“How will this conflict affect you? Well, it’ll affect you quite a bit, actually. Energy prices in the United States are about to go way up, and that means that everything you buy will become much more expensive.”
“You’re about to become measurably poorer. That’s not a guess, Joe Biden has admitted this. On the other hand, you’re going to win an important moral victory against dastardly old Vladimir Putin, who is much, much worse than Justin Trudeau. So, you can feel good about that … because? Because?”
“Come to think of it, why would you feel good about that? It seems like a pretty terrible deal for you and for the United States. Hunter Biden gets $1 million a year from Ukraine, but you can no longer afford to go out to dinner.”
“The only problem with Joe Biden’s Ukraine policy, says John Bolton, is that it’s too weak. Your kids aren’t fighting there right now, hunkered down in February, shooting at Putin. Let’s try a winter war in Russia. No one’s done it before, but we have high hopes.”
“So, let’s put aside the question of why you would ever want to shut down any energy pipeline anywhere ever, especially now, crude oil is nearing $100 per barrel, that’s the highest price since 2014. That’s not a small thing, because you need energy to live. It’s not negotiable. So, how does having less energy help the United States? Joe Biden didn’t even hint at an answer to that. He didn’t answer any questions, he ran away the second he had finished reading the script.”
“So, what are the principles we’re defending here? We’re defending a regime that has arrested their main rival and shut down opposition media. What principle is at stake here apart from rewarding the Biden family’s patron? But at least she’s honest enough to say what’s happening in Eastern Europe ‘may relate to energy costs.’ That’s a euphemism for ‘good luck filling your truck this August.'”
