Tucker Carlson fires back at Biden saying Democrats have decided to change the electorate


Tucker Carlson has fired back at Joe Biden as he claimed Democrats are poised on changing the demographics of the electorate in order to win elections.

During his Fox segment on Tuesday, the media pundit played a 2015 clip of the then-Vice President’s remarks at a White House conference on battling global extremism.

Biden says: ‘An unrelenting stream of immigration, nonstop, nonstop. Folks like me, who are Caucasian of European descent for the first time in 2017 will be in an absolute minority in the United States of America, absolute minority.’

He continued: ‘Fewer than 50 percent of the people in America from then on will be White European stock. That’s not a bad thing. That’s a source of our strength.’

Carlson took aim at the Democratic Party, accusing them of bolstering immigration policies and sidelining white Americans in order to gain votes in the polls.

‘So, you played clips of them saying it, and you’re the deranged conspiracy nut,’ Carlson said mockingly between laughs.

‘The Democratic Party has decided then, rather than convince you, people who are born here, that their policies are helping you and making the country better and stronger, they will change the electorate,’ he added.

The video shared by Carlson is a 30-second clip from a longer, six-minute version in which Biden talked about how Boston’s community recovered after the 2013 marathon bombing.

Before the video was cut, Biden had said that an ‘unrelating stream of immigration,’ was behind America’s secret to ‘remake itself unlike any other country in the world.’

Carlson has used the clip on several occasions to imply that Biden – and other Democrats – have tried to replace white Americans with immigrants – a conspiracy known as the great replacement theory.  

Payton Gendron, 18, accused of opening fire at a Tops supermarket in Buffalo, New York, on Saturday, wrote a 180-page manifesto with references to the ‘great replacement’ theory as he spewed racist and anti-Semitic sentiments.

Gendron’s attack killed ten and wounded three. Of the 13 people shot, 11 were black and two were white.

After mounting criticism that he had echoed the theory and pushed it on his news segment, Carlson attempted to distance himself from the issue by accusing Democrats of seizing on the opportunity to politicize the Buffalo race massacre

On Tuesday, the media pundit added that even changing the electorate would not be sufficient for Democrats to recover from recent polls revealing sinking approval rates.  

‘But the funniest part is they may be wrong, actually, judging by recent polling,’ Carlson said. 

‘It turns out your average Salvadorian landscaper’s politics are a lot closer to Donald Trump’s than they are to Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi. So, their basic calculation may be completely wrong, but that’s not even the point.

Biden on Tuesday refused to call out Tucker Carlson by name when asked by a reporter if he thought the Fox News host was ‘partially to blame’ for the Buffalo mass shooting that left 10 dead.

Biden did however slam those who ‘echo replacement theory’ as he visited and paid his respects at the site of the weekend’s rampage by a white supremacist.

It follows allegations from Democrats and the media that Fox News and Republicans are partly responsible for the attack at the Tops Supermarket because they are allegedly pushing the fringe theory that white Americans are being replaced by minorities.

‘I believe anybody who echoes replacement theory is to blame, not for this particular crime, but it’s for no purpose, except profit and/or political benefit. And it’s wrong. It’s just simply wrong,’ he told reporters as he prepared to leave Buffalo.

Earlier Biden called on all Americans to reject the ‘lie’ of the ‘great replacement’ conspiracy theory and slammed those who tout it as out for power and political gain.

Biden issued his call in an emotional speech in Buffalo after a suspect killed 10 people during a grocery store shooting in what’s being called a racially motivated attack. 

The president choked up when he talked about one of the victims, who was killed while shopping for a birthday cake for his three-year-old son.

‘Hate will not prevail and white supremacy will not have the last word,’ he said. 

And Biden called out those in politics and the media who have spread the ‘great replacement theory,’ a conspiracy theory that claims non-white individuals are being brought into the United States to ‘replace’ white voters to achieve a political agenda.

The once-fringe racist idea became a popular refrain among media figures like Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham of Fox News. Some Republicans have been accused of espousing ideas similar to it.

Biden called it a ‘hate’ that ‘through the media and politics, the internet, has radicalized angry, alienated, lost, and isolated individuals into falsely believing that they will be replaced. That’s the word, ‘Replaced,’ by the other. By people who don’t look like them, and you are therefore, in their perverse ideology, that they are being fed and possessed, lesser beings.’
