Good evening and welcome to Tucker Carlson Happy Friday a lot going on big trends too, you think about it. You often wonder what is going on for quite some time. Weve wondered what is going on with congressional Republicans a lot of nice people in the Republican Party, but the point of political party is not to be nice, its to represent the interests of its voters, thats. The only reason political parties exist in the first place, theres no other reason to have them, except to represent their own voters yet year after year on issue after issue, the leadership of the Republican Party fails to represent its voters were not guessing about that. We know what republican voters care about. They tell pollsters all the time since they kept getting ignored in two thousand and sixteen they elected Donald Jump just to make it incredibly clear what they cared about. If that wasnt a wake up call, nothing would be yet nothing really changed. It remains true as of right now that the priorities of the people who run the political

party are very different n. Some cases completely different from the priorities of the people who vote Republican. Why is that? Well, there are a lot of reasons for it probably but Frank Lunz is definitely one of those reasons. Dr Frank Lunz is the Republican Partys longest serving message. Man for decades Frank, has told elected Republicans what to say and precisely how to say it: Lunz massages language for politicians. He does it now, just this week. In fact, the National Republican Congressional Committee, the Nrcc, invited Lunz to Florida for the so called policy summit where he was asked to weigh in on the hot topic. His job was to tell officeholders people of power how to think about the most important issues of the day. We didnt hear the presentation. No doubt it was compelling Frank Lunz is a smooth salesman thats. Why hes been around for awhile? The problem with Frank Lunz is his views. His personal views

are very different from those of your average republican voter, Frank Lunz is a conventional liberal. His main clients are left wing corporations like Google. When Frank Lunz gives advice to congressional Republicans, hes got googles perspective in mind, thats a huge problem. We wanted to talk to lunz about all of this on. This show tonight nothing personal but its interested and important. We texted him an invitation this morning, but he didnt respond thats odd, because weve known him well for a long time in two thousand and nineteen, for example, he streeted us this greeting, which tells you a lot about the kind of person that Frank Lunz is this thanksgiving lets give thanks to the men and women of the FBI, CIA and the Intel services thats literally what the message said its on the screen, even on Thanksgiving Frank Lunz, takes time to bow before the powerful. Why does Frank Luntz remain a texture in republican politics at a time when the companies he works for are opposed to the

Republican Party explicitly so in part, because hes particularly close to the House Minority leader, Kevin Mccarthy of California and has been since Mccarthy entered politics in an interview earlier this year, Luntz described Kevin Mccarthy as a personal friend. That relationship gives Frank Luntz outside influence over the Republican Partys policy position. The big one take the border crisis, Frank Luntz view of immigration is much like googles view of immigration. America needs a lotted, more immigration right away, and anyone who disagrees with that is a racist now, rather than simply say that out loud, rather than make the case for his own opinion, Frank Luntz, slyly dresses up his own personal opinions at social time hell conduct something called a focused group, moderated conversation between several people that has, in fact, no actual relevance to anything. Its just random people, yammering

90 second exchange with the ups man this morning meant more than a Frank, Luntz Focus Group. He manages to make pronouncements about the country and how the Republican Party should respond to it. Most of those pronouncements, as you can imagine, tend to comport perfectly with his own views, as well as with the views of Google executives. Axios recently reported on Luntz findings, immigration. What did Frank Luntz supposedly find out about immigration? It turns out, according to Frank Luntz, that republican voters in fact are dying to give amnesty to as many foreign nationals as they possibly can theyre demanding it right away its a top priority for them watch. They believe in immigrants in immigration, theyre pro immigration hostly. I was a little honestly. I was a little bit surprised because of what I see reported in the media. Trump voters support the dream act. They supports the ability of these they, the ability of

these people who are brought here through no fault of their own, the ability to earn a path to citizenship. We need these people. We actually have an economy that is expanding, thats growing. I was a little surprised to find out deep down republican voters agree with me and Google we were not surprised were all children of immigrants. He told us. We need these people that may be entirely true or maybe its not true. We can debate it, but Frank, Luntz doesnt want to debate it, although he didnt come on tonight. He wants instead to pretend his personal opinions are established fact and that the Republican Party had better listen to them and obey open borders. Activists immediately seized upon lunts research to justify what they were already doing. Keeping the borders open, the national immigration form tweeted out a link right away. Daca has bipartisan support. The group wrote pointing to Frank Luntz opinions posing as research as evidence of that

passing the dream act is an opportunity to make real meaningful progress. Do you see? Amnesty has brought bipartisan support, theres a national consensus in favor of opening the border, so Republicans better get on board because Frank Luntz Research proves they desperately want it. This is pretty close to fraud, actually, who is served by it? Thats always the question in Washington. Well, Frank: Luntz corporate clients are served by it, of course, but also the Democratic Party is served by it. A party whose priorities Frank Luntz, appears to support here. He is back in twenty twelve telling the rest of us that, according to his highly scientific surveys of a dozen people in some shopping mall somewhere, most Americans actually really want the government to take their guns away. The public wants guns out of the schools, not in the schools and theyre, not asking for a security official or someone else. I dont think the NRA is listening. I dont think that they

understand. Most Americans would protect the second amendment rights and yet agree with the idea that not every human being should own a gun. Not every gun should be available at any time anywhere for anyone. Yeah most people agree notice. The language there did you listen carefully to that. You can protect the second amendment, even as you gut it, its just commonsense gun control. Most Americans are for that. Who does that sound like? It sounds a lot like Joe Biden, a man, Frank Luntz has been friends with, for a long time check out the note from Frank Luntz to Hunter Biden on hunters laptop. What you just heard in that clip were Democratic Party talking points, but if youd like more theres this, this is an interview from last summer, in which Frank Luntz explains that the phrase law and order is somehow offensive to most Americans. Keep in mind that at the very moment Frank Luntz was saying this american cities were on

fire. People were dying. Why? Because there was no law and no order its critical. We use the words law and order hes, assuming that we have the same politics as one thousand nine hundred and sixty eight Donald Trump doesnt realize that you can governor that you can Goff in a strong that you can govern in a strong, stable, successful way and still use language that is warm and kind and empathetic yeah stopping rides is not warm and kind, and empathetic doesnt help equity. If that sounds a lot like something a corporate HR executive might say, u, shouldnt be surprised about that. As we told you a minute ago, lunts main business is not helping the Republican Party. No, his main business is work for left wing companies that despise the republican parties and are horrified by republican voters and everything that they believe Frank Luntz. Long list of corporate clients include: Jeff,

Bezos, Amazon, Facebook, Nike, Coca COLA, Disney Delta AIR lines and the Chamber of Commerce. These are the people that pay Frank Luntz bill in his spare time. Frank Luntz tells Kevin Mccarthy how to run the Republican Party. You can do one you cant do both. You can see the conflict here and you wonder how has this been allowed to continue in case, you think were overstating Frank: Luntz allegiance to corporate power. Take a look at his twitter feed sometime. If youre ever bored delta employees made them the top rated airline, he wrote last January in what sounded very much like a press release thats something only good workers could do not shareholders, then not long ago, when Donald Trump called for boycotting Coca COLA and Delta air lines after they interfered in a very shocking way. Right in the middle of Georgias political system, lunts came to the defense of them, of course, theyre his clients. This left wing cancel culture is out of control. He wrote mockingly youve to wonder if Coca COLA and Delta AIR lines sent him a bonus for that

we dont know they should have either way. Toadying for big corporations clearly pays. Well, here is Frank Luntz showing off the replica of the oval office he had built in his home. Where are you? It was very kind of Donald Trump to give me his office im very fortunate. This is real. This is this is a chair. This is not a photograph in actually my home in California. This is the seventy eight percent replica of the oval office and over here. As I turn this around, this is the Lincoln Bedroom im, the only person who has an oval office that you can actually sleep in and you dont have to be a presidential intern, and this is a genuine, resolute desk im going to put it there behind me, so you can see, including the buck stops here. Wow weve got the this from

bill. Clinton lets see. If I can get this in the shot there you go, these are couches from Bill Clinton. This is the whole thing. Obviously you could be pretty mean about that pretty weird, but the point of this is not to attack Frank Luntz personally, nice enough guy. The question to ask is what is really going on here? Would you take medical advice, for example from Frank Luntz? Should you have to if you listened to him recently? Very much wants you to take the vaccine. Vaccines are great. Only a crazy person, wouldnt get the shot. Frank Luntz hasnt said a lot, however, about his long time. Work for Pfizer, huh, thats weird, nor does he brag about his work for Purdue Pharma. Remember that company Perdue Pharma is the company that got rural America addicted to opioids in two thousand and three as the opioid indiscernible Frank Luntz urged people to take more oxycontin

im a proponent of the pharmaceutical industry, Frank Luntz, told PBS im a supportive of a very famous medication right now, Oxycontin, because I think this is a miracle drug which allows people to get through the day. Some people, Frank, Luntz, acknowledged, want to see Oxycontin taken off the market, but not Frank Luntz. He was taking money from Purdue Pharma. I believe there are things worth fighting for yeah, apparently, a lawsuit files against Purdue Pharma by the State of Massachusetts in twenty nineteen includes multiple references to Frank Luntz. According to the suit explants, his company helped Purdue Pharma Purdue Pharma Ways to deflect blame for purdues addicted drugs, state of Vermont filed a similar lawsuit against Perdue Pharma. It mentioned Frank Luntz. According to the lawsuits, lunts proposed Perdue Pharmaadapt a strategy of emphasizing key messages that work.

Those words were spelled in all caps for emphasis. One of those messages and were quoting is not addiction, its abuse, its about personal responsibility right, so your 19 year old just died of a drug o dot d after Perdue Pharma flooded your town with addictive narcotics, but stop complaining its her fault. She died its about personal responsibility. This is the guy republican leaders just went to this week for messaging guidance on hot topics. You wonder why you no longer.
