#886 - Konstantin Kisin - A Plan To Save The Western World

It wasn't blah, blah, blah. It was like Americans looked at this and went on balance. We prefer this. I thought that was very important. As for whether that has a chance to spread, well, look, America is the place where we all download our memes, right? So I always think of the example of during the summer of BLM when we had protesters in this country in London.

in front of police officers saying hands up don't shoot in front of cops that don't carry guns it's good like that's not a real thing you've just downloaded the meme yeah and you're misapplying it here about something that really doesn't affect british people in anything like the same way And I think that possibility is there. I hope it's there.

And by the way, I'm not someone who thinks that the Trump presidency is nailed on to be a positive thing for the world. It's not guaranteed. It's an opportunity. And it really fundamentally depends on whether he's able to govern and deliver the things that he promised to the American people.

One of the fascinating things as well, and this is actually something Francis, my co-host on Trigonometry pointed out, is if you look at the... the kind of the lineup of the Trump campaign. The people at the very top of that are all Democrats, former Democrats. Trump, Elon, Vivek, Tulsi, RFK. They're all former Democrats. And so what you're looking at is not a super right-wing coalition.

Actually, it was really a broad movement that won people over on the promise of a number of things, improving the economy, cutting government waste, closing the border, dealing with illegal immigration, and sorting out the geopolitical situation. None of those things are particularly right-wing, actually.

Now, if he can deliver on those things, if he can close the border and deal with illegal immigration, if America's economy is booming, and if Elon and Vivek take an axe to the government bureaucracy and it's still standing and able to function in the same way that X is still standing after he fired 80% of the people… I don't see how that doesn't inspire people around the world. I don't see it.
