Tucker Carlson: 'America First' Begins with Families FirstThe host acknowledged that Republican leaders would have a hard time internalizing everything he had just said, but he had no hope whatsoever that Democrats would do anything to solve America's most pressing problems. To his fellow conservatives, he repeated his central thesis: America is its families. "If you want to put America first," he concluded, "you've got to put its families first."
Carlson, eponymous host of Fox News show "Tucker Carlson Tonight," began by responding to an attack Mitt Romney recently made on President Donald Trump in the Washington Post. Carlson's overarching message was that power struggles between American plutocrats are irrelevant compared to their indifference to the vast majority of Americans... ...Carlson noted some of the consequences of a decline in male wages. "Manufacturing and male-dominated industry all but disappeared over the course of a generation," he said. "All that remained were schools and hospitals, and both of them are traditional employers of women. In many areas, women suddenly made more than men." But as women don't want to marry men who make less than them, this has led to a decrease in marriage and an increase in out-of-wedlock births, drug and alcohol abuse, higher incarceration rates, and fewer families formed for the next generation. "This is not speculation," Carlson stated. "This is not propaganda from the evangelicals. It's social science. We know it's true. Rich people know it best of all. It's why they get married before they have kids. That model works." The host then blasted these elites for their indifference to helping the poor get married and stay married, for all their concern for the poor of the developing world. 'Families' are 'the building block of everything' "This is negligence on a massive scale," Carlson stated. He added that both political parties as well as cultural influencers are ignoring this crucial "crisis in marriage." "Our mindless cultural leaders act as though it's still 1961, and the biggest problem American families face is that sexism is preventing millions of housewives from becoming investment bankers or Facebook executives." After blasting the notion that the first duty of Americans workers is to shareholders, not their own children, Tucker took aim at "the ugliest parts" of the American financial system. "Not all commerce is good," he said. "Why is it defensible to loan people money they can't possibly repay, or charge them interest that impoverishes them? Payday loan outlets in poor neighborhoods collect 400 percent annual interest. Are we okay with that? We should not be"... ..."What country do we want to live in? A country that actually cares about families, the building block of everything," he continued. "Any economic system that weakens and destroys families is not worth having"...
