Succession

The GOP is so on the nose now and in some ways unelectable, that it seems like old Ruppert is blowing up the party he helped nurture in order for his son's to have a clean slate to rebuild a much more in touch party when he's finally gone.

We could look at what "hannity, ingraham, gutfeld, pirro, waters, the fox and friends stooges and whatever other ghouls i am forgetting" didn't do that Tucker did do.

i.e. call out the mega drug corporation for pushing certain drugs.

Oof. ie..None of those other folks used to wear bow ties on air either, so maybe.

ie. Use the word "they" way too often without saying who 'they' refers to.

ie.. profanely insult guests on his show in publicly revealed conversations.

Or maybe the thing you're on about. How would it work, a drug company ousting the host of one of the most popular news programs in the world, for saying something spicy?
