Podcaster Tucker Carlson has reported the result of his “autopsy” of Representative Thomas Massie’s loss in the GOP primary in Kentucky’s 4th Congressional District to Israel-first candidate Ed Gallrein.
MAGA is dead, Carlson said in a podcast released yesterday, and so is the Republican Party as we know it.
That necropsy went viral about the same time as the alarming claim that mischief might have been afoot in the election, given the unbelievable number of voters who supposedly turned out to cast a ballot for Gallrein. He increased the share of a primary opponent against Massie by more than 350 percent.
Also gone viral: Video of Gallrein’s victory party, which no one much cared about. Real Kentuckians went to Massie’s after-election party.
From Day 1, Adelson Was There. Now the GOP Is Dead.
Carlson opened his podcast, which featured GOP pollster Rich Baris, by recalling Inauguration Day, when he attended the service at St. John’s Episcopal Church on Lafayette Square, across the street from the White House.
Israel-first billionairess Miriam Adelson “blew past” all those waiting in line in the freezing cold, Carlson recalled, to pass through the magnetometers and enter the church.
“I knew that she was the biggest or one of the biggest donors to the Trump campaign, an Israeli born in Israel, widow of Sheldon Adelson, the biggest Republican donor, the casino magnate, but more than anything a fervent neocon,” Carlson recalled:
Her main issue is American support for Israel. She says this, it’s not a secret, and she spends accordingly. And she brushes past me … and everybody else, and just walks right in like she owns the place. And I remember thinking, hmm, I hope this isn’t an omen, I hope it’s not a sign of things to come. … So I kind of sublimated it, tried not to think about it.
Turning to Tuesday’s primary in Kentucky’s District 4, which Gallrein won 57,822 votes to 47,539, or 54.9 percent to 45.1 percent, with heavy support from those older than 65, Carlson said the overwhelming victory ends all pretense that democratic elections mean anything…
