Tucker Carlson spent an astonishing 15 minutes during his first show of 2019 to talk about the most important issue in America today: The dying middle class. Within that segment, he pointed out that in areas where women’s incomes have outstripped the incomes of working class men, marriage rates and drug abuse have skyrocketed. These are measurable facts but no one currently in political office wants to talk about the disintegrating American family — or what this collapse will mean for future generations.
Tucker is of course being excoriated by the left for these remarks. He’s being called sexist and misogynistic. Tucker even pointed out in his original monologue that we may not like this, but it’s true. Ask any young woman if she wants to marry a man who makes less money than her. The answer is invariably “No,” regardless of how you feel about Tucker Carlson’s hate facts.
Now Tucker has found an unlikely source who has done an incredible amount of research on the topic: None other than Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren. During her time as a fake Cherokee Indian at Harvard, Professor Warren wrote a book about the social cost of dual-income families for Americans. The conclusions of her research were devastating, which was why she titled her book, “The Two-Income Trap.”
If you don’t want to believe the facts when they’re coming from Tucker Carlson because you don’t like his politics, how would you feel if those same facts were delivered by Elizabeth Warren? Check out the video below for one of the rare instances where Tucker Carlson and Elizabeth Warren actually share the same beliefs about a major social problem.
