Carlson is trotting out the fascist "blood and soil" argument, with a dollop of elitism on top: My blood is pure American, from ancestors who were first to tread American soil.
The true lifeblood of America flows from the Declaration, as Bill says so beautifully.
The essential stupidity of the argument. He thinks his audience is a bunch of dummies who happily accept elite domination, or something. As if the entire last 15 years hasn’t been a rejection of elites by R voters. “I’m a great American, my RELATIVES were here in 1776.” Jesus, Tucker! NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR KENNEL PAPERS!
Come on, guys, be nice to poor Tuck. Ancestors is just too big a word, and, besides, everything he says is relative ... to his audience, to his bank account, to his own perceived self-interest....
Also, Carlson fails to mention which side his ancestors were fighting on. If they were fighting at all and not paying someone to take their place.

He doesn’t even say ancestors, he says relatives. How curious!
"Ancestors" sounds too elitist.
More than ancestors sounding too elitist, Tucker thinks his followers are too dumb to know what the word means.
Yeah, I thought the use of the word relatives was weird, too. You know the rich are different than you and me, tho.
