Tucker Carlson And Ben Shapiro Attacked Chelsea Handler
On Valentine’s day, Chelsea Handler shared a comedy video about the “day in the life of a childless woman.” This triggered Fox news anchor Tucker Carlson and radio host Ben Shapiro so much that they started attacking her.
On his show, Carlson said that she is an “aging, deeply unlikeable woman who never had kids.” Ben started showing his misogynistic mindset by stating that her “womb resembles a dried-up tumbleweed blowing down an old western town.”
He added, “Valentine’s date for the 10th year in a row is a 10-year-old copy of ‘Magic Mike’ and a half-full bottle of Xanax, and you’re trying to pretend like you’re happy, but you’re not happy.”

She then asked Carlson, “Are you really upset about how much freedom I have? Or are you upset that you haven’t been able to take it away from me yet?” Handler also slammed Ben in the same video.
“Thank you for helping my cause of not having children. Who needs the birth control pill when your voice is 100 percent effective?”, she roasted him.
The comedian further said to Ben that “you are hate-masturbating to me,” while telling Carlson that he watches her videos. The video has been widely shared and well-received on social media.
