00:00:00.000 I'm sure you saw the tweet that they posted, I think Marjorie Taylor Greene posted first
00:00:05.480 with a picture of them at the house in Maine, and it was, I think it was Joe Kent.
00:00:11.780 Thomas Massey.
00:00:12.860 Thomas Massey, Joe Kent, MTG.
00:00:15.880 And some respectless spouses, yeah.
00:00:17.360 Right, and then Tucker said, MAGA was betrayed.
00:00:21.100 We all were.
00:00:21.920 It's time for a new path forward.
00:00:24.140 More tomorrow night, 6 p.m.
00:00:26.740 What do you think we're going to get with Tucker next?
00:00:29.800 You know.
00:00:31.100 He's talking about a political party.
00:00:32.280 I think it's very unlikely that he's going to launch a full-scale political party.
00:00:35.780 The reason that I think that's unlikely is because that requires a certain amount of time and effort that I don't think that Tucker is probably willing to put into it.
00:00:43.980 And third parties have a pretty negative history in the country in terms of electoral success.
00:00:46.800 I think what he's probably going to launch is some sort of, you know, call it DSA light for the right.
00:00:52.780 and sort of an internal horse-shoe-right movement
00:00:59.280 that tries to nominate, say, primary candidates in particular districts
00:01:02.940 and that tries to sound off in loud ways in the primaries,
00:01:08.020 that would be the smartest thing for him to do, for sure.
00:01:11.160 Not that I want to give him advice.
00:01:12.100 Do you think there's any chance that he runs?
00:01:15.320 Because they're saying right now that they feel J.D. Vance has been compromised.
00:01:20.800 I think this is very, very unlikely.
00:01:22.520 And I think he runs.
00:01:23.420 I think it's extremely unlikely.
00:01:25.120 Yeah, apparently they're saying they went there to convince him to run
00:01:27.980 because they think it was supposed to be J.D.
00:01:30.580 and now they don't trust J.D. because they think J.D. has been compromised with the Iran.
00:01:33.740 I mean, first of all, if that's what J.D. Vance gets for all of his loyalty to Tucker Carlson,
00:01:37.980 that would be kind of astonishing.
00:01:40.660 I mean, come on.
00:01:42.820 I mean, the fact is the vice president obviously has a very close relationship with Tucker Carlson.
00:01:48.740 You know, it's his prerogative.
00:01:50.000 His son used to work for him, right?
00:01:51.340 Yeah, Buckley was in his office.
00:01:53.120 I have nothing against Buckley.
00:01:54.200 I've heard he's a nice guy.
00:01:56.120 So, yeah, that relationship is obviously quite close.
00:01:58.740 I'd be quite shocked if Tucker were to turn around and then stab J.D. right in the back that way.
00:02:03.480 I think that would be bizarre.
00:02:05.060 When we set out to create a shoe that blends comfort, function, and luxury,
00:02:10.640 we had the choice to make it fast.
00:02:12.960 We had the choice to make it cheap.
00:02:14.960 We chose neither.
00:02:16.560 Instead, we chose Tuscany.
00:02:18.000 We chose true Italian craftsmanship.
00:02:21.340 Each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:02:24.400 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail,
00:02:28.220 and we chose the finest quality at every step.
00:02:31.840 Introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:02:35.460 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:02:39.720 Rather intentional, luxurious, timeless.
