Tucker Carlson briefly cut into a speech by President Joe Biden, hoping to show his viewers a verbal misstep or two from the historically gaffe-prone politician on Thursday.
However, the Fox News host came away empty-handed and tried to save face by seizing on an innocuous comment by the president.
“We’re gonna take you now to a live shot of that same man to give you some sense of the longterm effects of Donald Trump’s vaccine,” Carlson said. “Here he is speaking this moment in the state of Maryland. Watch this.”
Biden didn’t oblige.
Back in studio, Carlson tried to make the most of a poor hand.
