I'm wondering if Tucker's private comments about loathing Trump were misdirection. Lies. Maybe he didn't loathe him, but is just mildly irritated? Maybe he unequivocally supports him and loves him? Any of the above is possible, especially if the remarks were made to someone who he knew hates Trump and who had a say in his Fox News situation.

My point is that Tucker's actions belie the notion that he loathes Trump. And I believe that playing the game in DC and engaging in a psychological war requires the combatants to lie, and be very good at deception. I mean, if it turns out that Tucker was just making such comments to placate someone who could have impacted his airtime, and we now have such damning J6 footage airing on his show, can it be said that such deception was not the right course of action?

Or maybe, he really did and does loathe Trump, but is able to divorce those thoughts and feelings from his professional life, which involves taking it to the enemies of Trump
