Yes, he is an opportunist and he smells the changing winds. By being an early adapter, he is setting himself apart from the herd to better rebrand himself. To him, it’s always been, and will remain about the money.
There is no philosophy with these talking heads, it’s just cynically about cashing in.

You know, it's no secret Tucker Carlson is being financed by foreign interests, but I really am suspicious of J.D. Vance and company.
Edit: ( I genuinely think that's all this is. I think he's being financed to sow division. I think his financers have directed him towards sowing division WITHIN the right, now that he can't divide the left and right as effectively from the margins)
Seems to be a lot of positioning from certain right wing media personalities towards a more "religious, calmer, and younger" candidate. J.D. also has ties to silicon valley, and right now Silicon Valley has America by the balls.

Vance doesn’t just have “ties” to Silicon Valley, Peter Thiel made him.
JD is a sock puppet. Designed to roughly mimic a human appearance but a little ridiculous looking on the surface with nothing inside. The hand controls everything. If Peter Thiel told Vance to go in front of the press and deliver a 120 minute diatribe about how he eats his fingernails while fingering his butthole, Vance would do it.

While I was standing in line to vote (in the 2024 election) there was a woman behind me literally blasting Tucker's [TP speech](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHMz1aWs7Ek) from her phone.
From the 2:39 mark:
>"Donald Trump's victory will be a triumph of the human spirit. It will be a triumph of Americans over the machine that seeks to oppress them. It will be a middle finger wagging in the face of the worst people in the English-speaking world who are leaders. It will be a moral victory the size of which I'd never thought I'd live to see."

Here are some texts from Tucker that were released in the dominion lawsuit which shows that his new realisation that Trump is awful is bullshit, he's known the whole time but thought he was a good bet and now sees Trump is weak and wants the top job for himself.
"We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights," he wrote in a text sent on 4 January 2021. "I truly can't wait." "I hate him passionately," he added.
"That's the last four years. We're all pretending we've got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it's been is too tough to digest. But come on. There isn't really an upside to Trump."

Tucker Carlson was caught off-air mocking Trump and admitting to his own grift. Having said that, it makes anything he says now about this presidency, irrelevant. The Trump grift is falling a part, so now you're going to see a bunch of these people get on the Republican anti-Trump grift. These people had a whole decade to step away from Trump and his cult, but cared more about money than principles. Sadly, the established Democrats eat this shit up and welcome these people like they did with Bush, D*** Cheney, all because theyre against Trump. Cheney was a damm war criminal whose use of waterboarding literally started the numerous beheading of American's throughout the years.

Hey Tucker, you can go ahead and F*** OFF. You were/are still one of the worst people whose actions gave us Trump and defended him for years. F*** allll the way off Tucker, people don’t forget.

Tucks sees the end of the road for Trump and wants to rehabilitate his image so he can get back to cheering/lying/propagandizing for the next repub presidential candidate.

Tucker has said the exact same thing about any number of professional or recognized leader.

For everyone deriding Tucker (myself included), why would he have to do for you to take this babyface turn seriously and give him support?
For me, if I see him making a lot of charitable donations to groups that can make a difference while continuing to speak out against tyranny, I think I'd be on board. I had the same reservations about Joe Walsh over a decade ago, but he's proven to be legitimate in his change.

Tucker's mentality, and history, IS that of cable news. This guy pretending he wasn't part of the daily circle jerk of talking heads repeating each other's spoon fed rhetoric

Hey, I'd love to introduce you guys! Pot, meet Kettle. Kettle, this is Pot.
He and MGT trying to rebrand themselves is absolutely pathetic.

If you want a ship to drown, seeing the rats escaping is good news
