    The only way this might be worth Zelenskyy‘s time is if he silently beats Carlson to a bloody pulp.

    The man has REAL problems to deal with. He doesn’t need to be “interviewed” by some fascist bootlicker.

      If I were Zelensky, I’d only allow Tucker to visit if he went to a specific location, was stripped completely naked, cavity searched and then brought, blindfolded, to an undisclosed location.

      And then I’d still do the interview over Zoom.

        I like your thinking but I would send him to the front lines instead to interview the commanders in the trenches and make him see what Russia is really doing up close and personal.

          Ooh I like that! You don’t even need to tell him beforehand, just put him in a tent with a laptop for a 30 second zoom call Zelensky says Tata, I have to go. But if you really want to learn about the war interview my troops. Then just leave him for a day

      You know Tucker will whine about it endlessly if he can’t get an interview. And also if he can.

      I would bet that Fucker Carlson didn’t actually ask for an interview with Zelensky, but just says he did so he can get “denied” and have a rant about who the real nazis are…
