What are you even talking about?
And are you trying to say that EricC85 wants to appease Russia?

I'm not going to use the word and get banned. Don't think dirty and actually watch the clip.

I went ahead and watched the clip.

First of all, you're definitely allowed to name religions here.  Christian. Jew.  Muslim.  You're just not allowed to debate religion here.

Anyhow, as always, Tucker is doing the old Rush Limbaugh trick of finding the stupidest person he can from the other side, and arguing with them as if they represent the entire other side. Most Republican voters in Iowa are in fact whites who identify as Christian. However, the lady on NBC obviously errs when she attempts to blame that race and that religion for Trump, obviously people are more than their race and their religion. Obviously, the panel that NBC assembled is terrified of Trump for reasons that have very little to do with race or religion. Reasons they may have discussed a few minutes before or after Tucker's clip, the world may never know.

If Tucker was more honest, he would have noted that the actual organized white evangelicals who remain in Iowa all supported DeSantis.  White Christianity in Iowa and pretty much anywhere else is no longer organized on any kind of top-down basis. The number of people claiming to be white and Christian hasn't really changed, but fewer of them go to church, and much fewer of them listen to their pastors about who they should vote for.
