Tucker Carlson on Left-Wing Anti-Kavanaugh Tactics: ‘Normal People Find It Scary and Unreasonable’

Friday on Fox News Channel’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” host Tucker Carlson argued that the tactics implemented by left-wing anti-Kavanaugh Capitol Hill protesters aren’t viewed favorably by most Americans.

Carlson said most people view them as “scary and unreasonable” and said the proof was in how Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) was alienated.

“The left has given up on making its own case,” Carlson said. “Activist no longer try to convince anyone of anything. Instead, they scream and bully. As a tactic, this can be effective. It worked many years for the Mafia, for example. But there is a cost to it, especially when it is on television. Normal people find it scary and unreasonable because that is exactly what it is: scary and unreasonable. The left is going too far, and it is alienating even liberal Republicans like Susan Collins.”

He went on say the protests brought to light how the left “really thinks.”

“If there’s one thing we learned during the last month, it’s what the activist left really thinks,” he added. “And a lot of people are scared by what they really think. Though actually, the term ‘think’ may be too generous. A lot of what we’re hearing isn’t the product of thinking at all. It’s the product of coordinated instructions handed down from on high and dutifully repeated by angry children. Liberals are party people. They do exactly what they are told.”
