The Tim Walz campaign, and the ******** attacks upon him.

It does look that way.

Specific attacks aren't getting any traction and are just backfiring so how about trying "I don't quite like the look of that guy"?

Just don't use the word "weird" and nobody will realise you're just copying their idea.

Of course, "I don't like the look of that guy" isn't going to gain traction, either, because, in the end, no one actually thinks that.

They DO like the look of that guy. He's their old math teacher or their coach. Someone they always looked up to. To get someone to go with "I don't like the look of him" is just obviously manufactured.
 
They could go the "DEI hire" route. After all, I'm pretty sure he was picked because he's a white, mid-western, christian, gun-owner.

Of course, we all know that when they use the term "DEI hire", it is actually is just a euphemism for the n-word.

Or they could go with: "He's not his own man anymore! Look at that joyful, well-adjusted expression! He's been bewitched by the cackling coconut hag!"

I am almost looking forward to this nonsense popping up at my next family event. Watching a college educated adult with a successful career and family try to babble their way through this idiocy will be hilarious and depressing.

The fact is, despite Tucker Carlson's education, he has always been this guy.
Notoriously homophobic, notoriously sexist, notoriously racist. Carlson's Trinity yearbook describes him as a member of the "Dan White Society", a reference to the American political assassin who murdered San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk. He was born privileged, one of the heirs to the Swanson Frozen Foods empire. He looks down his nose at anyone not from his socioeconomic background. He believes that since White Anglo Saxon men were the architects of the modern world, they are naturally best suited to rule in the future. He is seriously a piece of rich white trash.

I don't think calling people "creeper" was a thing in the 80s.

I wondered about that. It's not a thing here, but nor is it even familiar from US movies or TV.

So, aside from the certainty that Carlson just made the anecdote up, has he exposed himself to further ridicule by claiming to have always described such guys by using slang which did not then exist?
 
Walz is a GUN-OWNER?!?? In America?
And yet he pretends to be a responsible grown-up adult!
Oh Jesus's trousers! Have we come to th--
Okay, so Jesus didn't wear trousers. But you get me & Tucker's point!

Yes, okay, I own a gun myself. A beautiful gun, the best gun.
I own a pencil sharpener too,
and I know how to use it!

Where do you stand on propelling pencils? I've had a couple of good ones I really like.

That said, I like vicious pocket knives too. My favourites are illegal to take outside the house here: that's just how hard and edgy I am. Let alone the armoury I keep in the kitchen...

If it did, I wouldn't need the sharp pencil.

(For the curious, I put the sharp pencil in my pocket, point up so it didn't tear through the lining. This seemed a clever idea to 8 year old me. Later, having forgotten how smart I was, I plunged my hand into the pocket looking for something else.)

Well then. It wasn't an accident with a pencil sharpener, but with a sharpened pencil.
