Tucker Carlson was racist and lying.
There was no reason to call Kamala Harris "Samoan Malaysian". She is of Indian descent (therefore South Asian) and Jamican descent to a black father. Carlson was just being a jerk. It is mighty dumb of him not to know the difference between India, Malaysia and Samoa.
He also said, " “She’s never been accused of doing anything useful. She has precisely no achievements."
Wrong. He is a liar.
She went to law school, DID pass the bar, was a prosecuter, District Attorney and Attorney General for California. Then she was a Senator from California. I hate repeating myself but I wrote this in August:

2016 - US Senator She was very busy. Some highlights:
In January, Harris was appointed to the
Senate Judiciary Committee after the resignation of Al Franken.
[143] Later that month, Harris questioned
Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen for favoring Norwegian immigrants over others and for claiming to be unaware that Norway is a predominantly white country.
[144][145]
In May, Harris heatedly questioned Secretary Nielsen about the
Trump administration family separation policy, under which children were separated from their families when the parents were taken into custody for illegally entering the U.S.
[146] In June, after visiting one of the detention facilities near the border in San Diego,
[147] Harris became the first senator to demand Nielsen's resignation.

[154]
Harris supported
busing for
desegregation of public schools, saying that "the schools of America are as
segregated, if not more segregated, today than when I was in elementary school."

[174]

[175] an election security bill with Senator
James Lankford,
[176] and a workplace harassment bill with Senator
Lisa Murkowski.
[177]
She was elected as Biden's VP in 2020.
In contrast, Trump has never been an employee, and went bankrupt 6 times, and has his name on buildings he didn't build.....pathetic when compared to Kamala Harris.
