Thinking through how Tucker Carlson will spin the verdicts in the Ahmaud Arbery case on his nightly White Supremacist Fest…
<p></p>The instinctual response from most of us is that Tuck will claim these yahoos were railroaded due to pressure from Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and others. But upon further reflection, I believe Carlson will do the opposite.
<p></p>He will say that the verdicts were correct, and that these verdicts are proof that there is no systemic racism in America because the guilty verdicts came from a predominately white jury, conveniently omitting the fact that the defense used their peremptory challenges to exclude all but one black juror from a pool of more than a thousand screened potential jurors. (So who was really being racist here? The defense clearly believed they had a better chance with white jurors.) And that systemic racism is a construct of the "woke left." (Even though extreme, blatant racism was the very reason Arbery was murdered.)
<p></p>He will also say that the Rittenhouse verdict was correct, and that the “woke left” (or “socialists” or “communists”) is now cheering the very justice system that they condemned in the Rittenhouse case. (Basically, “Look! I’m not doing what the woke left was doing with the Rittenhouse verdict!”)
<p></p>Tucker Carlson believes he is most clever person on the planet, so of course he will do this. And all the racist regular viewers of Tuck's nightly hatefest will follow Tuck's lead and claim the verdict was just and that they "don't see color."
<p></p>And whenever you hear someone say, "I don't see color," you can be damn sure that person is racist as hell.
