"The Single Most Damaging Thing Any American President Has Ever Done To This Country And To The World"

"The Single Most Damaging Thing Any American President Has Ever Done To This Country And To The World"

Wow. What could it be?

According to Russian propaganda pawn and Putin-sycophant Tucker Carlson, whose Fox segments are being aired unedited on Russian state television ("They have described him as practically one of their cohosts"), it is Joe Biden's recent decision to ban the purchase of Russian oil in the wake of Putin's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, and has deliberately bombed (and then lied about) hospitals, maternity wards, residential buildings, and border areas where tens of thousands of Ukrainians are attempting to flee the country (all of which are clear war crimes).

On Friday night, Carlson said the following:

Here's the bigger truth. Our global financial systems benefit us. That may not be fair, but it's true and they're the basis of our wealth. So, if you destroyed them in an effort to get Putin, who are you really destroying? You're destroying the United States. And that's exactly what they've done. When you attack and destabilize the global financial systems, to restate, you are attacking and destabilizing the United States, not Putin. 

You can't see this right now, because there's so much hysteria being ginned up by the media, particularly on social media. But when that hysteria lifts, when the cloud finally evaporates, it will be obvious that the Biden administration's response to the invasion of Ukraine is the single most damaging thing any American president has ever done to this country and to the world. Not to Putin, to us. And to a lot of small countries that didn't deserve it. 

It's hard to see that now. All you're seeing are Ukrainian flag emojis on Twitter. But someday we will assess this moment with clear heads and when we do, we will be horrified.
