President Trump's speech at the Republican National Convention Thursday was the first moment in weeks when he seemed likely to win reelection, Tucker Carlson said Friday. Carlson argued that Trump's discusson of riots and other unrest gives him an edge over Democrats, whom he accused of being reluctant to condemn such violence. "The United States has flaws, but it's also, the president reminded us last night, the most free, just and exceptional nation on Earth," the "Tucker Carlson Tonight" host said. In our country, free speech is allowed, violence is not allowed. And that's why this week -- finally, after months -- Joe Biden issued a tepid statement gently scolding the rioters.
