That has actually caused a big fissure for some people.
it has actually led to a uh uh momentum behind anti-semitism and anti-semitic tendencies as well but for many others like there there were people who falsely believed in his anti-war uh narratives that they thought that there were people at least among the podcaster base they're like oh he would represent a change of of attitude from uh the previous administrations and actually move in the anti-war direction now i personally thought that that was silly from the beginning because
I was there when Donald Trump was president for the first four years of his presidency when he very clearly wasn't the anti-war president at all.
And as a matter of fact, I think Joe Biden actually presented before October 7 a truer path towards being the anti-war candidate when he pulled out of Afghanistan, which was objectively a courageous thing to do, even though he was endlessly bullied for that perspective that he maintained.
So do I think that this actually is do I think that this is actually like a real change in attitude?
No, I think it's more reflective of the base actually moving away, the independents moving away, the people that took a shot in the dark at Donald Trump, who were privileged enough to believe that Donald Trump could represent this seismic shift in.
in establishment politics who very quickly recognize that he is not representing this change at all.
People who thought maybe if he deports enough undocumented migrants, the criminal undocumented migrants as Donald Trump presented it, which was built around a lie to begin with, but that's a whole different story, that the economy would improve.
Now that the economy is not improving, they're realizing, OK, well, this is same old business as usual politics and also more chaotic than at least the stability to a certain degree that the Democrats offered.
So they're recalculating.
And I think that the podcasters are responding to that change in attitude from the base of support.
I've been yapping too much.
I think the Lemonheads have heard too much from me.
But I'll just say, look, I want Hakeem Jeffries to fight back against Donald Trump.
Hopefully this will be a pivotal point.
in what I would rank as somewhat weaker leadership role that Hakeem Jeffries has taken on in the oppositional framework that he's supposed to be advancing.
So this hopefully this lights a little bit more fire under him and he leans into the momentum that's coming from the base of the Democratic Party, where a lot of Democratic Party voters want Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to fight back in more aggressive ways.
They're cucks.
They're all cucks, especially Tim Scott, too.
When he says this is the most racist thing he's seen out of this White House, yes, there's truth to this because it leaves no room for doubt what he is doing.
