It’s not surprising #FireTuckerCarlson is trending on Twitter. He’s made no secret of his preference for white male dominance, falling just short of a formal endorsement of the KKK. It caught Fox News by surprise though that he has a history (on tape no less) of being so demeaning of women. He’s an unapologetic defender of Warren Jeffs and Roy Moore. What else do you need to know?

As someone who roots for Fox to die in controversy on a daily basis, I was interested in Tucker’s response to release of the tapes. Sure enough he followed the latest Republican trend in defending himself: double down.

We have pictures of you with a known child trafficker. So what?

We have tape of you using the C word in a live interview. So what?

We have records showing you neglected to pay taxes. So what?

We have checks showing you engaged in election fraud by paying off a porn star and a Playboy model. So what?

We have documents showing you took money from Russian oligarchs in exchange for political favors. So what? What are you gonna do about it?
