I think something is lost in converting it to text. Something of the essence of the moment really… You have to see it and hear it.

But, here, we cans ee something important about both Watters and El-Sayed-- Watters fancies myself some newer, better Tucker Carlson, but isn't smart enough to realize that he has Carleson's same weaknesses and is not nearly as clever nor adroit as Carleson-- something El-Sayed is both clever and adroit enough o take advantage of in this moment, and does, both warning Watters of beforehand before baiting a trap and drawing Watters witlessly into it.

Carlson's dad ran Radio Free. He is generationally skilled at what he does.

well, it's both low-hanging fruit, and there will, doubtlessly, be many more moments like these to come. take it (or not) as you will

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
