Tucker Carlson would by his own admission below, be quite happy to be living under a Nazi régime. The Nazis did love a useless failson. Unfortunately for him, the Japanese might well have taken the US. I don't think he'd enjoy that so much, given he's thick, lazy, weak, & racist

When I was a titchy bub, if anyone asked my name I would answer "Listy F-E-L-I-C-I-T-Y". I really did think that was my name because my parents were always spelling it out. Which is why I don't like using my full name to this day
