Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson became obsessed on Wednesday for the third night in a row with Jill Biden’s doctorate in education, this time devoting about ten minutes to mocking her dissertation while claiming that the incoming first lady he was “borderline illiterate.”
In case you missed it, a Wall Street Journal the writer confronted Mrs. Biden — whom he treated as a “boy” —with the title of “Dr.” in front of his name, saying that “it sounds and feels fraudulent, not to mention a tactile comic,” because it was not more in education and not in medicine.
The article provoked immediate outrage, and critics accused writer Joseph Epstein of misogyny and sexism. At the same time, Epstein found advocates in right-wing media, especially Carlson, who celebrated the piece Monday night while realizing that Biden had “the same degree as Dr. Bill Cosby.”
“Jill Biden is not a doctor, no,” he added. “Perhaps in the same sense that Dr. Pepper is.”
After addressing Biden again on Tuesday night, Carlson turned her into a trifecta on Wednesday evening, bringing to light the future first lady’s doctoral dissertation and trying to tarnish her like someone who “doesn’t can write “.
Spending a few minutes joking about how “he’s not a healer” of Biden and simply having “an educational degree from a Delaware school,” Carlson — whom Fox News lawyers have successfully argued should not be taken seriously, he devoted himself to questioning Biden’s intelligence.
“We read her dissertation this week,” he stated, adding, “Dr. Jill needs reading glasses, be that as it may, or is illiterate limit. There are typographical errors everywhere, including the first graphic in the introduction. Dr. Jill can’t write, she can’t think clearly either. “
“Part of the dissertation appears to be written in a foreign language with English words,” Carlson continued. “They are essentially nonsense like the Latin of pig or the barking dogs. All in all it is incredibly embarrassing. And not only to the poor illiterate Jill Biden, but to the school that considered this scholarship ”.
The conservative host of Fox News was just beginning, intensifying his insults by saying that “Biden’s doctoral thesis was our national shame.”
Viously aware that he would be accused of misogyny for his relentless and obsessive attacks on the incoming first lady, Carlson insisted that this had nothing to do with Biden’s sex.
“They are telling you that no one would ever tell a dumb man. Okay, well, it’s wrong. We call Dr. Jill’s husband all the time, “she exclaimed cheerfully.” In fact, we’ll be fully feminists here and admit that Dr. Jill is much smarter than the man she married. “
“It’s not that he’s saying much,” the Fox star added. “Joe Biden never wrote a dissertation, not even on community schools. The only thing Joe Biden has written recently are reminder notes to wear matching socks. Therefore, it is not a matter of sexism.
Some may be surprised that Carlson’s outrage at Biden’s use of “Dr.” honorific is selective. The Fox host has repeatedly awarded the title of “doctor” to Sebastian Gorka, whose doctorate in political science has been questioned in the past. He has also addressed several other political scientists as “Dr.” in their program.
