Tucker Carlson Mocked For Interviewing 80s Model Fabio on LA Being Like 'Sodom and Gomorrah'

Just when you think Tucker couldn't get any more ridiculous...


https://www.mediaite.com/tv/tucker-carlson-mocked-for-interviewing-80s-model-fabio-on-la-being-like-sodom-and-gomorrah/


I urge you to take just two minutes of your time to watch the above video of Fabio — the 1980s Italian model you might recognize from the cover of your grandmother’s favorite erotic novel — explain to a perplexed Tucker Carlson how California has devolved into a lawless hell-scape akin to Sodom and Gomorrah.

“Let me tell you something about California, it looks like the wild, wild west,” Fabio informed our bewildered Fox News host. “Don’t look farther than the leaders of California: Jerry Brown, Libby [Schaaf], the mayor of Oakland.”

“The leaders of California,” Fabio explained, “they’re acting like criminals.”

Fabio then told Tucker that even the public library in downtown Los Angeles “is like Sodom and Gomorrah” — the two Biblical cities consumed by fire and brimstone because of the sins of their inhabitants.

“It’s like sex, drugs and rock and roll,” he added.

“In a library!?” a horrified Tucker exclaimed.

“In a library,” Fabio confirmed.

Also some great comments from Twitter, including this one from Reuters' Timothy Aeppel, who calls this "the most Onion story ever."

...for commenting on FOX: he's a conservative (has-been) celebrity, and better yet one who their main demographic might actually remember.

Expert whose opinion we must hear.

The 2 40ish women who owned the store thought he was just 'soo good-looking'!

It was a toss-up between LA and Pleasantville, buuuuuuut...if the Public Library in downtown LA has its own Champagne Room, the kiddos will love that and the decisions made.

Carl Tuckerson is the worst of the Con(servative)-Men..on any given day I at least acknowledge that theres a small possibility that Rush or Orilley actually believes their own bullshit, but nooooo, not this fuckstick; he's half-assing it, at best lol.
