    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.

      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…
