Tucker Carlson mocked for calling left-wing ideas ‘Satanic’

Tucker Carlson is facing a wave of mockery on social media after agreeing with a guest that left-wing beliefs are “Satanic”.

The bizarre conversation took place on Mr Carlson’s Fox News show on Monday night, during which he spoke to conservative columnist Jason Whitlock. After Mr Carlson asked Mr Whitlock what percentage of Americans he thinks “actually believe” in progressive ideas about race and gender, Mr Whitlock dialed his rhetoric up to 11.

“Tucker, I’m going to say something that’s difficult to unpack in this short amount of time, but it’s what I truly believe,” the columnist said. “I think a lot of what the Left supports is Satanic. I’m just sorry. It’s in direct objection to God, and in direct objection to the Judeo-Christian values that were at the foundation of this country.”
