    Nate Silver Retweeted Norman Ornstein

    I tend to agree that Tucker is a racist, or at least that he convincingly plays a racist on TV. However, I don't want the PR department of Applebee's deciding for us all what's racist vs. legitimate/acceptable political speech.https://twitter.com/NormOrnstein/status/1075204817184792576 …

    Nate Silver added,

    I disagree. This is not a boycott because of political viewpoint. No calls for boycott of Hannity. This is a set of boycotts because of disgusting personal behavior and disgusting racism. Very different. https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1075201780718305280 …

        Well, the two aren’t the same thing. One can believe that white people are equal to black people while trying to make money by pretending to believe white people are superior to black people.

        well, good news, they’re not. they’re responding to public pressure, because there’s a broad and defensible consensus that Tucker Carlson is a tumor
