    he aids tucker’s white nationalist narrative

    How in the world is he doing that? The clips I've seen are him yelling at Trump to pardon Snowden and pull out of Afghanistan and shit, with the refrain that it'll be popular to do so. He's selling a leftist message to a right-wing audience, which makes him a fucking hero - along with everything else awesome he's done in life.

    seems happy to do so

    Ah, yes, the known White nationalist Glenn Greenwald, merrily spreading racism once again.

      I feel Tucker plays a lot of lefties who get shunned in the mainstream media. Notice how they're almost always on the show to talk about how bad Democrats are, and rightfully so. Only problem is, most of his viewers are being fed reasons to hate true leftist ideologies, as most of them are dumb enough to believe Biden is a communist, thus anything that would help people gets associated with their view of liberal politicians.

      Am I just babbling? Or am I saying something coherent?

        The internal logic of what you're saying is sound - if Tucker's leftists guests were only there to smear Democrats, that would be them playing into his hand. But is that the case?

        Like, here's Jimmy Dore on Tucker and he's saying that the popular thing to do would be pass a stimulus and universal healthcare. The only mention of Democrats is to tell Trump to offer double of whatever stimulus package Nancy Pelosi offers. He's not actually attacking Democrats, he's just trying to push Republicans left on economics and war, which ultimately would make the job of progressive Democrats easier.
