Abby Grossberg: Tucker Would Call Senate Candidates and Tell Them ‘If They Don’t Come on the Show, We Will Destroy You’

‘I didn’t want to have senate candidates calling me and being very upset “are you going to destroy our whole campaign tonight” because he could do that’

EXCERPT:

GROSSBERG: “There was an aspect of I can pick who the House Speaker is. I can pick who the president of the United States is or who the Republican candidate is going to be. And I thought that was really dangerous and didn’t want that kind of power. I didn’t want to have Senate candidates calling me and being very upset, are you going to destroy our whole campaign tonight? Because he could do that. And he would call and tell them that, that if you don’t participate or you don’t come on the show, we will destroy you. And I was told to tell that to congressmen sometimes. And I didn’t. How can I? That was disrespectful. So, in addition to the misogyny and the sexism and the anti-Semitism, there was also just this sort of moral growth with me where I reached a breaking point because of all of those things, and I literally did not want to do it anymore. It felt disgusting.”
