tv Tucker Carlson Tonight FOX News November 15, 2018 9:00pm-10:00pm PST
9:00 pm
martha will be back tomorrow night in this chair. tucker is up next and we will ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight."t it's been more than a week since the last votes were cast in the midterms but still some races remain unresolved at this hour. in the state of florida, everyk count is ongoing. we will have more on that in justda a minute. it's a pretty weird story. but perhaps strangest of all is what is happening right now in georgia. the race for governor of georgia was tight for months, you probably followed it. but o it finished in the end exactly where the polls predicted it would finish. the republican brand camp defeated stacy abrams by one and a half percentage points and in a big state that's an awful lot of votes.
9:01 pm
for reasons she hasn't explained, stacy abrams has refused to accept those results. her allies who are now claiminga the election was stolen. >> if stacy abrams doesn't win in georgia, they stole it, it's clear. it's clear. >> stacy abrams' election has been stolen from her using what i think insidious measures to disenfranchise certain groups of people. >> i knew stacy well, she was one of my really strong surrogates in the campaign. if she had had a fair election, she already would have one. >> tucker: election fraud is what they are same. by the way is there anyone more fraudulent than cory booker? think about that. but back to election fraud, it's a serious charge and it's telling that nobody making that charge provided any evidence that it actually happened, no detail at all.k d, most remarkable of all is that hillary clinton is one of thell voices in this course. we keep track and we remember hillary's view just two years ago. here's what she thought ofwe losing candidates who claim to the was rigged.
9:02 pm
>> that's horrifying. every time donald thinks things are not going in his direction, he claims whatever it is is rigged against him. that is not the way our democracy works. we've been around for 240 years and had free and fair electionsy we've accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them and he is denigrating and talking down our democracy. i, for one, am appalled. >> tucker: she is appalled. you have to accept the outcomes you don't like but it turns out that accepting outcomes you don't like is something only republicans are required to do. richard nixon had an entire presidential election stolen from him by jfk in 1960. liberals applauded when nixon chose not to contest the election. 1 but democrats do not apply the same standard to themselves. when democrats lose there is always a reason, a reason that has nothing to do with alienating voters were getting fewer votes, it's, putin bragged
9:03 pm
the machines or the macedonians hacked facebook or roger stone sent unapproved tweets.or or the perennial favorite, "you are racist, all of you who didn't vote for us are racist. you are amoral bigots." i and of course that's what we are hearing once again. by the way, it's a lie. america is not a racist country, at the clock kind and decent country. but the left hopes that by calling you enough names that they will bully you into giving them more power. they always try that and sometimes it works but the question is, what's the cost to the country? peter carson joins us again tonight. thanks for coming on. so first a factual question. this is someone that is a rigorous thinker i think that has been following this. is there real evidence that stacy abrams has had this election stolen from her? >> there's absolutely no evidence that i think anyone has deduced but i think what we are seeing is a test run for the 2020 election.
9:04 pm
it's not merely a test run, but i don't think in my two decades in the civil rights committee i've seen the identity politics of this political cycle. i think you could go back even before the 1957 civil rights act, and there's a reason for that. there are several reasons for it but one is, it works. and they are trying to delegitimize the electionks in advance but it's a test run because, think about how difficult it is for your average leftist to try to convince ara voter that they should accept their unworkable or somehow sometimes nutty politics or policy prescriptions, versus simply saying that person is a racist, that person is a bad person and all the right thinking people know that persos is a racist, and it has an ancillary effect. that is, it keeps blacks on the
9:05 pm
democratic reservation. this is existential for the democratic party, they need at least 90% of the black vote just to be competitive and even 90% plus of the black vote so they engage in these types of maneuvers and rhetoric on a regular basis. but the additional effect, and i think you alluded to this, there's a certain subset of white voters who they also want to align themselves with the right folks and they don't want to align themselves with those that all the right-thinking people say are racist. so they will vote in the prescribed matter. >> tucker: you are right that it works and they've been doing it an awfully long time but i think in 30 years of covering an election i've never seen it and in this volume. you said there are a couple reasons for it, the first is that it works and i agree with you but one of the other reasons? why now? >> i think some of it is because -- think about how far the democrats have gone to the left. it's difficult to get more than
9:06 pm
a certain percentage of voters to align themselves with those kinds of policy prescriptions. it's a lot easier to comprehendg and appeal based on identity politics if, for example, what's her name, alexandria cortez, were to go out and convince the voter that extending tuition won't bankrupt the economy, even the most obtuse voter will laugh her off of the stage. it's a lot easier to say vote for me because of whatever identity i might be, and have media acolytes continue to echo that on a regularse basis. a significant portion of this is because of donald trump and continued attempts to paint donald trump and anyone who supports him as a racist. in some respects it has been successful, i think it's backfired in other respects but you are seeing something they
9:07 pm
will test out big time in 2020. >> thank you for making sense of that. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: democrats have to choose a new speaker of the house and just a couple of weeks. no choice, they've got to do it. nancy pelosi brought the party to its biggest win in a long time, they've been out of power eight years now and have power back but a lot of democrats say they don't want her as the speaker.lo at least one left-leaning cable host is confused by this. >> the party picks up more seats in the house than at any time since the immediate aftermath of watergate. and the party response to that by maybe turfing out their leader in the house? we just had the biggest gain since watergate, "pelosi must pay." schumer, you guys are good. nothing against or for schumer, or against or for schumer, but how does that work? >> tucker: tammy bruce is the radio host
9:08 pm
and she joins us tonight. it seems like the democratic party may have reached the identity politics cul-de-sac where it's racist to keep nancy pelosi because she doesn't look like the emerging democratic party but it would be sexist to kick her out because she is the highest-ranking woman. so what does she do? >> and also ageist, obviously. i value experience, walter maddow is partly correct but at the same time i thought donald trump was responsible for their success. i don't think nancy pelosi according to the democrats had anything to do. i want donald trump to be the speaker of the house. so come on, let's be honest.t. the bottom line is, there is a strata there in the democratic party that understands that the establishment is out of touch, that this is the same kind of dynamic that they've beenes dealing with for years, that they have no answers and no prescription policies. people said that when they were running they would vote againste her and that's also because they were running not as democrats.
9:09 pm
they were pretending they weren't democrats, they were assuring everyone that they were not going to vote for the same old dynamic and status quo and that is what nancy pelosi is. they understand the party has to change and yet, nancy is also the only one who raises money. so on the other hand all the socialists want more money and nancy is the one to get it to them. so she is the best one for it.an you are right, no matter what they do they are racist, sexisti ageist, and i don't know if we can fit homophobe in there somewhere, i'm sure that's a factor. but i've got my popcorn and i'm watching this, and maybe they should make alexandriae, ocasio-cortez the speaker? >> tucker: i'm rooting for her her! it's like one of the deep truths of life, you never suffer as much as when you get what you think you want. so they took the house back and all of a sudden they have to deal with each other and it's the ultimate nightmare. >> it's the frankenstein monster.
9:10 pm
they have created this, they are dr. frankenstein and they thought they had this great idea. then lightning struck and they got it, the monster woke up and suddenly the monster is chasing you around your office and they are not quite sure.g it's a friend, or maybe not your friend. >> tucker: maybe not. >> maybe not your friend. but for those of us who care about the country, we see this as the charade that it is and, while they are of course -- my first book was about the racisml and sexism and homophobia on the left, and we will hear about that for the next two years as your first guest noted. this is the test run about demonizing people.rs there will be no ideas and the republicans had better be ready to be able to counter that narrative and stand up for theer american people led by the approach and the action of theab president. we have two years to get it right and we have to start right away. >> tucker: they better toughen up a little bit, i agree with that.o tammy bruce, thanks to you.
9:11 pm
there is another florida recount that has been going on for a week in progress tonight. the senate between rick scott the republican and bill nelson the democrat is still ongoing. the florida secretary of state has ordered a manual recount. craig patrick is the chief editor of fox news tampa bay. he has been on this since the tonight. and joins us what's going on? >> by the way, you also have a disputed race, until now in the race for governor. while andrew gillum gained on ron desantis, he gained by one single vote, and with that,lu tt one is over although gillam has not re-conceded. in the race for senate, yes. there is now this hand recount because they are close enough to trigger it which takes us into next week. that's the good news for bill nelson. the bad news for bill nelson is he gained absolutely nothing
9:12 pm
from the machine recount which concluded today. in fact he lost net votes to rick scott. rick scott ran up his lead through the first phase of the recount which leaves nelson in the position of being the politicalea equivalent of bruce willis from "sixth sense." in his career is over but he doesn't know it yet. he's playing that out. you have more blunders, and that's where the bad news is that their machines continue to sputter and fail and melt down. palm beach county fell flat on its face and was unable to complete the recount, meaning they just go back to their original results. if there's any good news in palm beach county, it is that they are not broward county to the south. and the good news is that brenda snipes after all the blunders said she finally did something right. after all the hand-wringing they were able to meet the deadline
9:13 pm
to complete the recount. she said they did it witht minutes to spare and as she celebrated, but the bad news is she forgot they had to transmit it to the state. then they fumbled around with the computer and couldn't figure out how to do it in time.y they were 2 minutes late and as per the law, the recount results in broward county got rejected by the state. >> tucker: you have conclusively convince me not to run for broward county office. i will not attempt it. first the press told you b that the migrant caravan was not even real and didn't exist but then they told you it was so far away it wouldn't get there. reality has intruded on that t story line and we have an update from tijuana, mexico, our southern border update. story line and we have an update -here comes the rain.

9:17 pm
♪ >> tucker: if there is one thing in the world you definitely shouldn't worry about it's that fake central american migrant caravan the xenophobic people on fox news have been trying to get you to believe in. a it's made up, it's a mirage. and even if it isn't, it's on the far side of the planet. far far away from here. listen to some of the smartest people on the planet tell you that your fears are ridiculous. >> they are telling you that it's an existential threat to
9:18 pm
america. it's a bunch of poor refugees a thousand miles away. this group of folks, we don't even know where they are, they all way down there. >> called this an invasion, it might be the most pathetic invasion in history if it were actually an invasion but of course it's not. >> people he called invaders even though they were a thousand miles away. >> way down there, a thousand miles away.. p in other words, the caravan is a lot like social security. it's something we might potentially need to think about, someday but for now, everything is totally fine. calm down. what liars they are. in fact parts of that supposedly distant caravan have already made it to the american border and many of the illegal migrants in it have already popped our shoddy defenses and entered our country. the famous people that you just watched claim that would never happen haven't admitted they were wrong intentionally or not, they haven't issued corrections, of course and they never will. the election is over so they are on to the next talking point and
9:19 pm
meanwhile the torrent continues. despite the caravan being a method invented by president trump for a midterm, meanwhile henrique azevedo managed to find it. he joins us now. i'm a little bit confused. last time i checked which was just a couple days ago it seems like that caravan was in president obama's terms, a thousand miles away and they were walking. how did they get to tijuana? >> the caravan is very real.ke it's a movement of thousands of people, around 5,000 have already arrived to tijuana and the border with san diego, but it's not a national emergency and it's not a threat to national security of the united states. most of the people that are part of this caravan are just pushing strollers through mexico. they are families, women and babies just trying to get to the u.s. to illegally request asylua which president trump is makingt much harder. >> i just want to get to the practical part of this.
9:20 pm
i'm an american, i will decide if it's a threat or not, if that's okay. we were told by anchors across a spectrum on television that the caravan was a thousand miles away. they were walking. it would be weeks before they got to our border. i wake up this morning and there they are, how did that happen? did they run or did someone pay buses to take them up here? you didn't tell us that part? u >> it took them almost a month -- over a month to get from the honduras to the u.s. and mexico border.tar not all of them have arrived, some of them them are still trying to get to this point. some of them caught a ride and were able to get on buses and trailers of chickens and pigs. that's how they made their way through mexico. >> tucker: that's not quite right. >> some of them are trying to reach the border.. >> tucker: so you are saying nobody chartered any buses to bring them up here? because i think we have videos showing chartered buses bringing them up here. you are the reporter on the
9:21 pm
scene. >> i haven't seen anyone. >> tucker: you don't think there are any chartered buses whatsoever?ch >> i haven't seen anyone chartering buses. i've seen mexican officials providing transportation from this point in the border, it's here where 800 people are spending the night. they are being transported in buses from here to there but not from oaxaca to the border. >> tucker: you may want to check your sources on that, because it would be impossible for that group to move as a group especially with the strollers that you claim are there, you are saying it's majority women and babies in strollers? is that what you are saying? >> i am happy to share the footage with fox news from our correspondent who traveled with them in the back of a bus that usually carries chickens.. that's how they got to -- and
9:22 pm
trailers and the backs of pickup trucks. that's the facts. that's what i have to share with you. >> tucker: what i'm saying is you are engaging in propagandaay designed to make people think something that is not true. so i think the majority of people, including the people on the tape moving from honduras and guatemala are men, young men without their wives and children, right? >> i don't think anyone was questioning the existence of the caravan. what they were questioning is the label of being a national threat, getting 6,000 troops to the border. >> it's very hard -- it's very hard to make rational decisions about how to respond to something if you don't know what it is because everyone on tv is lying to you.in it's very clear that everyone on tv is lying to us.
9:23 pm
they told us it would be weeks before this caravan would get here because they were walking and that was a lie. they said it was mostly women and children, that was a lie.in so until we get to the facts, we can't know how to respond. so let's stop with the lying and to tell us what is actually going on. and you know as well as i come it's mostly economic migrants looking for higher wages in the united states. i'm not attacking them but that's a reality. >> there is no organized effort to get these migrants from the border to the u.s.-mexicos border. i know vice president pence said there were forces in latin america financing this and making it some sort of a conspiracy to undermine the u.s. government, but the reality that these people are fleeing honduras, 300 residents are leaving the country every day and they do that because ofa the levels of violence and extreme poverty that they face. so what would you do? this is not ideal. this is a humanitarian crisis.
9:24 pm
the government should act like it. >> tucker: so you are saying that there are no groups funded bygo governments or big ngos helping this group of people move from central america to where they are now in tijuana? to get across the border? nobody is helping them and it's all organic?c? that's what you're saying? >> in all our reporting, since this caravan started, not onlyor this one but the others that i will continue to follow, we haven't found any evidence of any government involving funding or financing this effort to try to get these people from honduras to the u.s.-mexico border. mexican people have been kind enough to provide some humanitarian help but there ise no government or state force behind this. >> tucker: look, we all know exactly what's going on, i just want to have you on the record so we can invite you back and talk through your previous claims and compare them to the other tenants that we are in the process of gathering and i can't wait for that. thank you so much, henrique for joining us tonight from tijuana, mexico. >> thank you, tucker.klk c

a party of the working class, but not anymore. now the democratic party is the party of the merciless corporate power of google, facebook, and the rest and they will punish you if you get in their way. two of the bluest parts of the country showered promises and billions and billions of taxpayer breaks on jeff bezos. he runs amazon. in return, both those states are getting a new amazon headquarters, which is a great deal for jeff bezos, not that he needs it. he's already the richest man on planet earth. but what about taxpayers? eric scheffer joins us tonight. thanks for coming out. >> my pleasure. >> tucker: it's not clear to me. why would new york, and virginia is in on this, but why would they need to pay that much in taxpayer dollars to the richest man in the world for the privilege of having the company moved to new york? >> i came on because the state
9:30 pm
representative there, cortez, made a statement and made comments basically saying that she didn't want to take amazon's jobs in new york because perhaps it wasn't going to be unionizable, et cetera. and you agreed with cortez in this situation. >> tucker: no, i wasn't -- i'm sitting right here and i can tell you what i agreed with. i'm never ashamed of that. i thought it was a fair point. why is new york, which is crumbling, and you may be there tonight, but the city is falling it smells on the subways. why would they be sending money to the richest man in the world? why wouldn't it be used to fix the subway? i'm confused. >> i typically, rarely if ever agree with the socialist and certainly don't in this situation, on many levels. i think what happened here and we can all recall that amazon
9:31 pm
had an open bid across thell country in which all these states could compete. and everyone dead. and they did because people still want jobs across the country. they still want good paying jobs and frankly, that goes for new york and even arlington, people in the bronx and queens, they haven't had investment and jobs in about 100 years.ve here comes amazon saying, we are considering putting jobs in your state and your city. and these politicians that run the city's recognize a competitive situation, and decades they competed for incentives to get jobs. as they should. the tax cut passed by president trump which i supported was a big component of the tax cut, which was jobs. it caused businesses including
9:32 pm
some of the -- >> tucker: i'm not against jobs, but it's not amazon doing the investing.g. it's the taxpayers of new york and virginia who are investing in jeff bezos against their will.'s they are paying the richest man in the world $3 billion for the privilege of having him move to a city he didn't build.il i'm just confused. why is that a good deal forr new york? >> first of all they are not handing a check to bezos. you could hold shares and amazo amazon. anyone who watches the show could earn shares and this is for the public in general. it's an american company and it's a good one. >> tucker: it's not an american company, it's owned by people around the world. >> tucker, come on.
9:33 pm
this was founded in the united states. it was one of the great countries in the world that allows for great technology. >> tucker: you think it's loyal to america? no. >> it was founded by americans, it certainly is a big contributor to tax in america, and significant jobs.o my point that i was trying to make -- >> tucker: i don't think everything about amazon is bad. but my question is, why would the democratic party hand the richest man in the world $3 billion per year to move to new york? without asking what the taxpayers think. in a city that is literally falling apart though mike apart. i think that is a fair question. >> i think most states in most cities wanted amazon to come. in fact there were many that superseded that.
9:34 pm
>> tucker: you don't think that's a little pathetic? this is not the capitalism i was promised. capitalism is the biggest scam you can and run away laughing? >> it's investing in jobs.nd in the end it's -- the difference is, they actually bring money back to the city. -- or some creepy billionaire supporting politicians that i had no say in, how is that capitalism? that is something much lower than capitalism. >> capitalism, when the city invest to get jobs and actually gets more money back from -- it's growing jobs.
9:35 pm
and america can benefit from investment. >> tucker: that's my favorite part. eric, thank you very much and good to see you. p unfortunately a heartwarming story has been exposed as a hoax.o that may tell us something broader about america that we might like to know. mark steyn joins us after this. when my hot water heater failed, she was pregnant, in-laws were coming, a little bit of water, it really- it rocked our world. i had no idea the amount of damage
