Tucker Carlson Not Surprised That Eric Swalwell Fell For Lincoln Project Hoax: ‘He’s Not A Very Bright Human Being’

U.S. House Rep Eric Swalwell (D-CA) quote tweeted a now deleted tweet about the Lincoln Project hoax that took place today in Charlottesville, Virginia and attempted to claim they were legitimate supporters of GOP nominee Glenn Youngkin.

Swalwell has still not deleted his quote tweet, however, where he said, “Birds of a feather.”

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson had some harsh words for Swalwell on his show tonight and was not surprised that he fell for the hoax because “He’s not a very bright human being.”

Carlson shared a clip of his monologue about Swalwell in a tweet and said, “It’s not surprising that @ericswalwell fell for today’s hoax. He’s not a very bright human being.”

In the clip, Carlson explained, “It’s not a partisan point to note that whatever else he might be, Eric Swalwell is legitimately stupid.”

“Some of his colleagues have compared him to a labrador with a head injury, but that doesn’t seem quite fair. There is literally no chance Eric Swalwell could ever find a tennis ball. He can barely remember to breathe,” Carlson pointed out.

Carlson then brought up the Fang Fang scandal and noted, “Our enemies know just how dumb Eric Swalwell is and they’ve exploited it. If you’re a marginally attractive Chinese spy for example hoping to commit bizarre sex acts with an American politician in order to steal this country’s secrets, sooner or later you would wind up at Swalwell’s place, because it’s just too easy.”

“So this morning, Swalwell was staring at the internet, as he often is, when he saw the picture of those fake Nazis in front of Glenn Youngkin’s campaign bus in Virginia and here’s the amazing part, a normal person, someone with an IQ over 70 might have paused for a moment and wondered, ‘That’s funny, what’s a black guy doing holding a torch at a white supremacy event, that seems weird,'” Carlson continued.

Carlson concluded, “But that didn’t occur to Eric Swalwell, he didn’t wonder about it, it didn’t seem weird to him, it all seemed perfectly normal. So as he is paid to do, Swalwell emitted a small cloud of simulated outrage and then went back to looking at websites of sorority girls. That’s his life.”
