Rockwell:\u00a0 <\/strong>Good morning.\u00a0 This is the Lew Rockwell Show. \u00a0And what an honor it is to have as our guest this morning, Mr. Tucker Carlson.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been a fan of Tucker for years on various cable news shows but it\u2019s such a thrill that he\u2019s on at 8:00 every night on the FOX News channel with Tucker Carlson Tonight<\/em>.\u00a0 Tucker also is an entrepreneur.\u00a0 He started the Daily Caller<\/em> as the editor-in-chief and it\u2019s a very successful site.<\/p>\n

Tucker, your book, I was thrilled to see, pushed Bob Woodward out of number one on the New York Times<\/em> best-seller list.\u00a0 Amazon said that they\u2019re having trouble filling the orders it\u2019s flying off the shelf so fast.\u00a0 It\u2019s Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Tucker, why does the ruling class hate the American working class so much?\u00a0 Why do they want to replace it with immigrants, as Bill Kristol openly champions?<\/p>\n

Carlson<\/strong>:\u00a0 Well, I mean, that\u2019s kind of the central question.\u00a0 I think there are a couple of reasons for it.\u00a0 But let me just note, as I think I\u2019ve read you write, this is the only revolution in anyone\u2019s memory waged against the working class, not on its behalf.<\/p>\n

(Laughter)<\/p>\n

Typically, you know, revolutions are supposed to be for the unemployed.\u00a0 And now, of course, we\u2019re trying to make \u2013 I think there are a couple of reasons.\u00a0 But, I mean, they\u2019re inconvenient.\u00a0 They complain.\u00a0 They\u2019re living proof that the power schemes of the people in charge have failed.\u00a0 I mean, if you\u2019re running a country and your middle class is dying, you\u2019re demonstrably a failure.\u00a0 And so, you know, you want to get rid of that evidence as fast as you can.
