I am starting to think it may all be part of a cunning plot on the part of CNN. Much like how the Democratic Party deliberately supported radical GOP candidates in the run up to the 2022 mid term elections. They want Trump as the GOP nominee because they think he is beatable.  More than any of the other candidates.  So they give him a forum and a relatively receptive audience to work his magic with. 

 

And it just might work. 

Agreed.  It would have been easy for him to add something new but that is not part of his brand.

He has no chance to win the Presidency ever again and that is all that is important

It was a win for Trump and I wonder if other Independents were going to be swayed. I do not think any RINO's were in attendance.

A new law was instituted, she took advantage of it, case closed. I think I wrote earlier that he would not be found liable for rape but would be found liable for defamation.  TBH I didnt know there were lesser accusations (battery etc) included as well.    I would say he should pay the lady (he has experience doing that) and get on with life. 

I agree. Those defending his actions need to understand we in media are not  qualified to judge but the jury is and only they decide. Evidence counts.

Just saw this from his admiration on new evidence:

I never said it was a conspiricy. I don't care who is accused 30 yrs later of rape, it shouldn't make it to court. I don't know anything about the metoo cases you speak of.

Are you aware of this enacted back in February 2023?

Wow, "man", you're the one who's out of touch.  Fox did not admit that they lied and paid off the plaintiff to avoid a long and embarrassing public spectacle.

As I understand it, court cases are for US dollars as settlement option only. Apologies are not derived from a jury's option.

"I thought cancelled was the same as fired!"

Why would you think that?

 

"Can you prove with any links as to him not being cancelled or fired please?"

Can you prove with any links as to him being fired please?  There's lots of verifiable information about him that's easily available and I'm referring to "firings", not "cancellations", whatever that is. supposed to mean

I guess "no longer employed" or "doesn't have a job here anymore" is the most accurate wording.

Yes, he's done so badly for himself, hasn't he?

Incidentally, he was not "fired" from PBS, nor CNN and is still "employed" under his contract with Fox.

I thought cancelled was the same as fired! Can you prove with any links as to him not being cancelled or fired please?

For sure.  Seems like he would be better serve to work independently. But he has nearly 7 million Twitter followers and was pulling in north of 3 million viewers a night on Fox.  Obviously there is a market for his brand of commentary.  Just a matter of time.  

His followers are not going anywhere is the truth. But thats actually their problem and not anybody elses

Some of us are ecstatic his career is over in MSM

One per cent of the population is not what I had ever considered as immpressive but you can think it, so it will be true.

Not if you were paying his inflated salary. He was getting $16 million a year to tank the ratings of a once very funny show.  Good work if you can get it!

Yeah and also his gig at Hosting the 2023 Grammys too was an over payment as well! LOL

Freedman is a smart, talented, and vicious lawyer.  He will get what Tucker wants done. Hell, even Don Lemon has retained Freedman for the same reason.  

Might take a while, but you will see The Tucker back in media in some form.  Fox is feeling the wrath now of jilted viewers who are going elsewhere, and it isn&t going to improve any time soon.

 

Related news, I was shocked at listening to the ratings for The Daily Show. In the last season with Jon Stewart in 2015, they averaged 1.3 million views. These days with Trevor Noah, they are down to less than 400,000 and doing even worse in the key demographic group.  I guess talent DOES matter!

So your' still thinking is he will rise again?

Even though he has the record of firings so far!

PBS Fired

CNN Fired

MSNBC Fired

Fox News Fired

Doubtful

It's a shame Mr. Trump has to try and recall ever knowing this lady, on something he didn't do 27 years ago. Is she writing another book? Is she after a quick buck? Or is she just trying to be in the spotlight for once? Again, the truth will always come out in the end.

Most all of us  Americans believe in our fair judicial system. We all agree the jurors who have served will decide who is telling the truth and stand by their decisions'.

I was attempting to learn more about the two sources that published the story and did not see either of them on this chart. As far as the story it is clear and has yet to provide any evidence no reason is clear.

Only read this:

 The Daily Telegraph is politically conservative and has endorsed the Conservative Party at every UK general election since 1945.

I set up SSA direct deposit to NY NY branch back in 2019. They in turn transfer to my Thailand CM account, usually by COB on deposit date.  I check the rate at close of business the day before. I can say from auditing as far as I can tell that NY takes 500baht and Thailand takes 200baht.

Wow man, Tucker is one sick puppy.

It sounds like he was trying to come to terms with the fact that he really is a horrible person, almost as if he were confiding in a therapist or something. This doesn't come as a surprise to me at all that he wanted the kid to die.
