Tucker Carlson likens Vogue's fawning Jill Biden profile dubbing her a 'joy multiplier' to North Korean propaganda

TUCKER Carlson has likened Vogue's fawning Jill Biden profile, which dubbed her a "joy multiplier," to North Korean propaganda.

The Fox News host went on a rant mocking Vogue's flattering and lengthy profile of the first lady during the Thursday night episode of his show.


"In one scene in the Vogue piece, Dr Jill cradles the arm of nervous women as they get the [Covid] jab. 'Look at me,' she coos reassuringly. 'It doesn't hurt.'

"That's right," Carlson quipped sarcastically. "It's only Kool-Aid. Drink the whole cup."

The host went on: "Who is this amazing woman? This servant, saint, humanitarian, genius, medical missionary who still somehow has managed to stay beguilingly sexy at 69?

"What did America do to deserve her?"

He then goes on to quote from the Vogue piece, which refers to the first lady as a "joy multiplier."

"She multiplies joy. That's what she does. That's who she is," he quipped.


He then went on to assert that the profile in the fashion magazine was on par with North Korean propaganda — or worse.

"Back in North Korea they must have read the latest issue of Vogue with their jaws open," he said.

"A joy multiplier? Joy brigade, sure. But joy multiplier? That may be too far even for the Kim family.

"North Korea may be a hermit kingdom, but even they're not that stupid."

The first lady's cover sparked some controversy among Donald Trump fans since the former first lady, Melania, was not invited to be on the cover of Vogue during the four years that her husband was in office.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama was on the cover of the magazine a record-breaking three times.

In December 2020, Trump fumed about the magazine not offering his wife the cover.

"The elitist snobs in the fashion press have kept the most elegant First Lady in American history off the covers of their magazines for 4 consecutive years," he tweeted.

Melania did appear on the cover of Vogue in 2005, shortly after marrying Trump, but never while he was president.

In her Vogue interview, Dr Biden took a subtle jab at the former president, saying she believes her husband was elected because people wanted calm.

She said that when she travels around the US now, she feels that Americans "can breathe again."

"I think that's part of the reason Joe was elected. People wanted someone to come in and heal this nation, not just from the pandemic, which I feel Joe did by, you know, getting shots in everybody’s arms.

"But also…he’s just a calmer president. He lowers the temperature."
