Fox News, aka Republican BangBus host Tucker Carlson continues to swim near the bottom of the Republican cesspool among the discarded cowboy boots and Trump votes to call Black Americaโs most beloved president โa creepy old guy.โ Carlson attacked former President Barack Obama and other celebrities for trying to get people motivated to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

Yep, that is the level of douchery that Carlson has lowered himself to, as heโs now attacking folks who want Americans to get vaccinated and therefore prevent the spread of an infectious disease.
In a recent public service announcement for Yahoo Newsโwhich was posted to Yahoo Newsโ TikTok account, which largely targets young folksโObama encouraged them about getting the shot.
โI want to talk about you getting yours,โ Obama said, Business Insider reports. โThe vaccine is safe, itโs effective, itโs free. I got one, Michelle got one, people you know got one. And now, you can get one too.โ
Seems pretty harmless, right? Well, not if youโre a mediocre white man who has a TV show that targets other mediocre white men and their wives, all of whom are named Karen.
Carlson called the PSA โa creepy little video telling small children to get the shot.โ
Carlson then described Obama as โsome creepy old guy telling your children, your little kids, to take medicine whose effects we do not fully understand.โ
Carlson somehow turned a vaccination PSA into the evil workings of the Democraticons. Meanwhile, the late-night Republican SpankWire host failed to note that there is no COVID-19 vaccine for young children.
From Business Insider:
So far, Pfizer - BioNTechโs vaccine is only approved for people 16 and older. The drugmaker has been conducting trials of itโs vaccineโs safety and efficacy in children aged 12 to 15, with The New York Times reporting that the Food and Drug Administration could greenlight the shot for that younger age group as soon as next week.
Carlson, in recent weeks, has cast doubt over the safety of the COVID-19 vaccine on his show. He even suggested that the vaccine is being forced on American people.
On Monday, possibly because Carlson wants America to suffer, he called out โunresolved concernsโ over the COVID-19 vaccineโs effect on womenโs fertility. Meanwhile, Business Insider has reported that the vaccine is safe for pregnant women and noted that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention officially recommends that pregnant people get vaccinated.
It didnโt take long for the hashtag #CreepyTucker to start trending on Twitter.
