Fox News host Tucker Carlson said Duckworth, who lost both of her legs in the Iraq War, hates America.

Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) fired back at Fox News' Tucker Carlson, after he accused her of hating America.

"Does @TuckerCarlson want to walk a mile in my legs and then tell me whether or not I love America?" Duckworth, who lost both of her legs in a helicopter crash while doing a tour of duty in Iraq as an Army lieutenant colonel, tweeted late Monday night.

Carlson had gone on a lengthy diatribe on his Monday night Fox News program against Duckworth, who is one of a handful of contenders on presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's vice presidential shortlist.

"You're not supposed to criticize Tammy Duckworth in any way because she once served in the military. Most people just ignore her. But when Duckworth does speak in public, you're reminded what a deeply silly and unimpressive person she is," Carlson said, going on to accuse Duckworth and other Democrats who have argued for removing statues of racist and traitorous Confederate soldiers of being people who, "actually hate America."

I am now writing and hoping Vice-President Biden to ask Sen. Tammy Duckworth to be his choice for Vice-Prescient...............

1. Carlson is such a pathetic little piss-ant

...but he's going to regret that " (just) because she once served in the military" crack.

...also, too, it's effing HILARIOUS to hear Carlson claim someone ELSE reminds you "what a deeply silly and unimpressive person" they are when they speak. The little shitweasel.

2. Those ass hats at Fox really make me sick

They are always accusing people of hating America. None of them have ever done anything to help America, just like the fearless leader. All they do is prey upon others.

7. "Silly" is deliberately sexist. Tucker is a little prick

8. Just change a couple of words and the quote from the story makes more sense.

"Most people just ignore him. But when Carlson does speak in public, you're reminded what a deeply silly and unimpressive person he is."

There.

9. So

Tucker Carlson hates veterans!
Says those who have sacrificed for our country are silly.

It’s pretty easy to copy their style. Unimpressive.
