I don't know why Eric Swalwell wastes his time on Tucker Carlson's show

And yes, I realize that begs the question of why I'm wasting my time watching -- I wanted to see what weird spin Fox News was using.

Anyway, Carlson just said he isn't sure Swalwell believes in the Constitution.

And he's talking over Swalwell almost constantly.

Carlson preceded this segment with a bizarre rant that the WH Resistance is an "oligarchy" sabotaging the president "for their own benefit."

If he wants to run for 'higher office' he needs a broader constituency - in a center right voting country. Preaching to the choir doesn't work as well.

I would suggest dem potential candidates should want to appear on Scarborough to get at a broader constituency.
