Tucker Carlson invited a comedian
named Jim Breuer on his program
to discuss the endless debate
regarding Coronavirus vaccines.
It got a little off the rails.
We've got lots to show you.
So let's start with
the first video.
>> I got a lot of feedback from
a couple venues that I was playing,
and my fans were really upset.
They said, I'm not comfortable with
getting a COVID shot, and
now they're saying I can't come see
you perform unless I do that.
And I looked into it, the last
thing you should be doing is going,
like feeding the seal the fish.
>> Yeah.
>> Hey, you want to come see
a concert
you want to hear custom fit.
Why would you do that?
>> Exactly.
I don't want any of my fans forced
to come laugh, and
they got to get a shot in them?
>> Is he really referring
to his fans as seals?
It seems he's mocking his fans.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay. >> I don't know this dude,
I think he did go boy on SNL So
I think he mainly
does animal sounds for a living.
So that's the right wings idea of
like its top shelf comedian.
So he had to go to an animal's
sound for some reason.
It doesn't really quite make sense.
And he seems genuinely flummoxed,
he's like,
why are you doing this, man?
Just [INAUDIBLE] we're going to go
get the room.
And we're going to laugh,
theoretically- [LAUGH] >> And
we're going to be all next to each
other without mask and vaccines.
It seems like that would be the
perfect place to catch Coronavirus.
So I don't know why they're
doing this.
>> No. >> And then Tucker Carlson
like this, [LAUGH] this is Tucker
Carlson look, and he goes, exactly.
[LAUGH] >> That was actually my
favorite moment- [LAUGH] >> Because
he did it exactly,
after he did the seal sounds.
And I feel like it was almost
a instinctual reaction, it looked
like he was uncomfortable and
just said exactly.
>> Flexible, yeah.
>> Yeah, can we actually watch that
again, just pay close attention to
Tucker Carlson [LAUGH].
He actually looks visibly
uncomfortable.
[LAUGH] >> I got a lot of feedback
from a couple venues that I
was playing.
And my fans were really upset.
They said, I'm not comfortable with
getting a COVID shot, and
now they're saying I can't come see
you perform unless I do that.
And I looked into it, and that's
the last thing you should be doing,
is going hey,
you want to come see the,
like feeding the seal with fish.
Hey you want to you want to come
see a concert.
Hey, catch the fish,
why would you do that?
>> Exactly.
>> [LAUGH] Tucker is amazing,
because how does he hold that pose
for that long?
[LAUGH] >> That's the other thing.
[LAUGH] >> But he does accurately
represent the rest of us in
the context [LAUGH], he was like.
>> Yeah.
>> And the comedian dude,
what's with his head?
Let me tell you something.
Okay?
>> He seems like a fidgety guy.
>> And then he is like, come here.
[LAUGH] >> Yeah.
>> Anyway we got more clips.
>> We do, I know, like that was
the tip of the iceberg.
So, then they get into this
back and forth about how much they
want to be part of the oppression
Olympics, while claiming
that Conservatives do
not like the oppression Olympics.
But wouldn't you know the people
who are actually the most harmed in
this country, are those who refuse
to get vaccinated during a global
pandemic.
Let's watch.
>> There's a new narrative, and
the new narrative is,
the unvaccinated are the beast,
kill the beast.
>> Exactly. >> This program goes on
forever, kill the beast, the beast
is the unvaccinated, kill them.
And when our leader put that out
there and pointed the finger like
we're the demons.
I'm not vaccinate, I had COVID,
you're not going to tell me about
my body.
I know my body.
I know my morals.
I know my faith.
You don't come telling me and
threaten me, and everyone else as
if we're the demons.
>> Exactly [LAUGH] >> [LAUGH] Now,
I'm worried,
I'm going to start watching
Tucker's show just to hear him say
exactly, at the most absurd times.
[LAUGH] >> So, look, guys,
now the sad part of the story is,
I watched this clip and I thought,
we say something that's idiotic and
stuff.
It's easy thing to say, but that
guy's genuinely unintelligent, and
it feels awkward saying it, but he
just literally doesn't understand
anything he's like, so now,
we're the ones spreading disease.
And they say we're the bad guys.
>> Yeah.
Well, look- >> That's why it's
not that hard to understand.
And so you can at least say, hey,
I get where they're coming from,
they're worried about a contagious
disease, but I have my friends.
But he just seems to genuinely
like, they shall kill the beast,
and then Tucker goes, exactly,
when did they say that?
>> I mean, that is absurd.
No one's talked about, physically
harming unvaccinated people, in
fact the whole point of encouraging
people to get vaccinated is so
they don't end up hospitalized or
dying from the vaccine, right?
And look, I actually don't know
anything about this comedian.
And this sounds insulting,
but I don't mean it to be.
I actually have lower standards for
people who aren't politicians and
who aren't members of the media.
>> Mm-hm. >> And the reason why
is because, to be fair,
there's a ton of disinformation out
there about the vaccine, right?
So he's a comedian, right, it's
not his job to do all the medical
research and all the research
necessary to decipher what's right
and what's wrong, right?
You're supposed to have responsible
media coverage and unfortunately,
that's not what we've had in this
country, because COVID is turned
into a culture war issue.
Which as you can see Tucker Carlson
has really capitalized on and
it's unfortunate.
With that said though,
like the thing that's been kind of
frustrating as I've made the awful
decision to interact with
anti-vaccine people on Twitter.
Is that they keep going back to
this talking point about like,
yeah, well,
the vaccines is ineffective because
when you're vaccinated you can
still get sick with COVID.
And it's like no, okay, it's true
breakthrough infections do in fact
happen, we can acknowledge that.
But if you get a breakthrough
infection, you are far less likely
to be hospitalized are far less
likely to die from Coronavirus.
So when you have mask mandates even
today, it's because you want to
ensure that if the people who
are vaccinated end up getting
a breakthrough infection,
they're not transmitting the virus
to people who are unvaccinated.
Who have a higher likelihood of
getting hospitalized and dying.
And he talks about how we're not
the bad guys, they keep making us
out to be the bad guys.
I get that you don't want to
be judged.
But I wonder if he's aware of
the fact that hospitals are at
capacity and
are literally rejecting people who
have their own medical emergencies
not COVID related, and can't get
the care they need, because there
aren't any hospital beds available.
>> So the guy who is aware of
course is Tucker.
>> He is aware of that.
>> Yeah, and he doesn't care at
all. >> And so,
look you [INAUDIBLE] the guy he's
just not that bright.
He's like, look, man,
I didn't take the vaccine and
I got COVID, help me understand
how that proves your point.
It doesn't really prove your point.
Then he goes to, well, look,
I didn't die, is presumably where
he's getting at.
>> Yeah, that's what he's trying to
say. >> He's like,
I know my own body.
But he doesn't grasp that,
that's anecdotal, and
he doesn't grasp that, yes,
most people don't die.
But an alarming percentage
of people do die.
And that's why we've had over
650,000 dead.
Yes, congratulations,
you're not one of them.
I'm happy you're not one of them.
But that doesn't prove that
COVID doesn't kill people or
that you don't need the vaccine.
>> Right. >> Later in the interview
he talked about,
I know the breakthrough case.
I know guys who were vaccinated and
they got COVID anyway, and
did they survive?
Yes, they did.
Now, again, that's still anecdotal
even though it's on our side.
So you look at the numbers, and
you see that unvaccinated people
die at 11 times the rate of
the vaccinated.
>> Right?
>> So that's a fact, but
he wants people to come
to his comedy show, and
he doesn't want to be vaccinated.
So he just goes and pushes this
agenda out there, because it's me,
they're super selfish.
And if you call them out on it,
they cry, >> But
that is American culture, right?
Individualism.
So like it's really difficult to
get people to think about how this
is a public safety,
public health issue, meaning that
it's about the community.
It's about the country,
it's about everyone living in it.
It's not about the individual.
It's about coming together to
ensure that as few people die as
possible, right?
I mean, we have failed
significantly on that effort.
But don't worry because Breuer
actually does have a plan for
avoiding COVID.
Let's hear what it is.
>> I have two close friends right
now, fully vaccinated, and
they got COVID.
>> Yeah.
>> And they're both sick.
So, this is not about safety.
Because if it was, just like you
said and I said in my video, eat
more fruit, take care of your body,
go to the gym.
I've been saying that forever.
>> That's right everybody.
If you eat more kumquats,
you'll be fine.
You don't have to worry about
COVID, just eat more.
[LAUGH]- >> They- >> What?
>> They do, they
genuinely believe it.
They think, well,
since I survived and I eat a lot of
fruit, if you go to the fruit and
you work out, those
650,000 people wouldn't have died.
It's not how it works,
everybody has different bodies, and
you could actually in some cases,
be in great shape and
still die anyway.
But nope, he doesn't get it and
he's never going to get it, and
all he's going to be is selfish,
and Tucker Carlson is going to go,
exactly.
