This. I think putin fed him some bullshit and promise and then putin just played him. Tucker is a small fish relatively and much smaller post fox. The only people he has are dumb fucks like my uncle who think it’s all a great game by both to fight the “cabal”
Tucker is the one who gave all the concessions to even have the chance to interview him, Putin didn't promise him a single thing because he didn't need to. Tucker is just a former American cable news pundit sympathetic to Russia in his eyes, nothing more.

I’d like to think that Tucker got in to this interview under the impression that he and Putin had a pre-arranged set of questions and answers and then Putin completely ignored that and decided to do his own thing, dominating the little dipshit. And there’s nothing Tucker can do about it; whatever soft power and influence he wields as a right wing influencer means absolute nothing to a dictator of Putin’s calibre :allears:

Also congrats on literally every single bit of tech you took over there being hacked and tapped.

Neat!

Tucker is there to make the strong man Putin look good, same as if Tucker interviews Donny. Tucker appearing weak is both expected of a sycophant and part of the plan. They need to keep selling this Trump Putin alliance because the base wants and expects some sort of excuse for these traitors. So Trump and Putin ring the fascism bell, Tucker and Musk and the rest of the right wing nutjob brigade supplicate and signal boost, and the base licks boot puts it back on their own necks and begs for a little more. Otherwise some of these people might have to admit they were wrong, and at this point they would rather burn it all down than face that sort of self reflection.

I think there is a simpler and more plausible explanation; interviewing Putin is one of the only ways Tucker was able to get media attention for his new social media platform on Twitter which was his primary motivation, Tucker probably thought he would get some soundbites on Putin desiring a 'peaceful' resolution for the conflict on principle (which Putin didn't provide him).

That only provides a superficial public justification for Tucker going there.

There's another half to consider. It in no way explains why Putin said to THIS SPECIFIC now-nobody, "yeah sure come on over let's do it."

i think thats putting more thought into it then they are. again, my chud uncle thinks this is all a show against the "cabal". i think chuds like russia because they hurt people they hate and chuds jerk/jill off to strong man aesthetic and russia has that projection in spades.

Make that face and count four seconds in your head. It's a pretty long time. You can almost see the hamster running at warp on the wheel in his head trying to understand what the gently caress is happening.

Why would Putin turn down an interview on his terms from a sympathetic American cable news personality who would uncritically report the Russian perspective on the conflict? I sincerely doubt Putin is the one micromanaging the interview process and instead was provided by staff a time where he could do an 'interview' with a sympathetic western journalist popular with one of the two major American political parties who would do stenography for the Kremlin. Both Tucker and Putin did the interview for self-serving purposes, the actual content of the interview itself is immaterial (except for showing how desperate Tucker is for any media attention).

Because Tucker is no longer a cable news personality. Fox dumped him and he's been relegated to the internet where he enjoys nothing status as a social media loudmouth.

and correct, hence why Tucker is doing this. nobody gave a poo poo when he had the EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with the guy who allegedly had gay sex drug parties with Obama last year, this has been his only real interview that has gotten any media attention since he made his agreement with Elon to be exclusive on the platform.
