Let's Leave It at That

There should be a leftie version of Tucker Carlson's annoying habit of simultaneously suggesting something and denying he's doing it. He puts it out for the lunatic fringe to latch onto while distancing himself. 'Oh, I didn't mean for somebody to go out and shoot him' after saying how much better off the world would be without him and after someone does exactly that. 

Which of course applies to Tucker himself, that the world would be immeasurably better off without him, I'm just saying, so don't go out and shoot him but my God he's a traitor and hates America and lies and is destroying the country and the world would in fact be so much better off without him. I wish somebody would shoot his sorry ass. Sorry, that just slipped out. 

Anyway, the liberal version will of course be lighter, less vicious, and with more in the way of irony and innuendo in keeping with the known and increasing trend of the political parties breaking along educational attainment lines except for the rich fuckers who vote Republican. Tucker spells it all out for them knowing his listeners to be stupid and mostly basically morons.

But we can get by with less. More subtlety. I'm thinking of 'Let's Leave It at That' as the shtick, implying there's more to be said, but let's leave it at that.
