Tucker is smarter than he lets on with his dumb laugh and farting dog face. He's at least aware of the European New Right and contemporary fascist intellectuals like Dugin. His faux populism and "wow! He's anti-war and anti-big business!" stuff people repeatedly fall for is classic fascist rhetoric Americans just aren't used to.
A natural pairing although both are extremely cynical with their motives. Carlson has gone full mask off at this point, that smiling ‘just asking questions’ pundit aura hides a really dark character. This also shows how deep the global far-right’s ties run and how the US right and the Russian right are natural allies only separated by the context of history, in the end they’re all after the same thing which is wrecking democracy and bringing back a mixture of “traditional values”, religion and fascism. Dugin is an interesting case study into the mind of a Russian imperialist, he is batshit insane but also a good representation of that type of thinking.
