“A man is judged by his deeds, not by his words.”

From Michael Smerconish

Michael Smerconish and TC Scornavachi talking about whether Smerconish would interview President Vladimir Putin, the dictator of the Russian Federation. And Smerconish saying he would do it. He defended that by saying he’s interviewed a lot of controversial people in the past, like Bill Cosby, Bill O’Reilly, Kari Lake, etc. And this is how TC Scornvachi, who is the producer of this show responded:

“But isn’t there a difference between politicians or personalities who have controversial views or have done something possibly criminal, versus a world dictator whose like killing people? I’m just asking.”

Michael Smerconish: “I’m not on team Putin. I’m not on any of those teams. I’m on team Independent and critical thinking.”

I swear that Michael Smerconish is a walking, human, bulletin board, for himself. He goes out-of-his-way to try to convince people that he’s not a Democrat, or a Republican, Liberal, Conservative, etc. I believe generally when people go out-of-their-way to try to convince people that they are something, or believe something, they think that it’s not obvious enough. And maybe the message is not getting out enough. Or maybe they’re not as they advertise themselves.

Would I interview Vladimir Putin? My answer would be conditionally. I would go in with the questions that I want to ask him and the points I would make and tell the President this is what I want to talk to you about. And if he tried to veto that, I would say no. The man is evil as far as I’m concern and deserves to be held accountable for that.

As far as Tucker Carlson interviewing Vladimir Putin: Tucker is on team MAGA and whatever the Russian version of this far-right, nationalist movement of culture warriors and right-wing militants, who perhaps have all done time in prison (like now) or in mental hospitals. Who think they’re losing their country and it’s time to take it back. Or, Tucker could be on Team Tucker and believes this is how he stays in business by going all in on this right-wing culture war propaganda.

I'm a blogger who deals mostly with current affairs, public policy, politics, and history, who concentrates primarily on people who might be called Classical Progressives today, people who are to the left of Conservatives and Liberals (or Classical Conservatives and Liberals, if you prefer) but to the right of Democratic Socialists and Communists. But I also blog about Hollywood and sports as well.
