The Bulwark Daily · Will Sommer: Conspiracy Theorists Are Behind the Wheel in the Republican Party · 16 Dec 2025 podcast

We might look back and say this is where we got a future Republican president.

You know, he made a big splash.

I think that's right.

I mean, this is a world he's very familiar with.

I mean, he's obviously a big fan of Menchus Moldbug, Curtis Yarvin, the would-be monarchist guy.

I think he's saying, you know, I have to court this group.

I think it's also a group that he potentially could –

could lose control of.

I mean, you look at someone like Nick Fuentes, who's been very critical of J.D.

Vance's ties to people like Peter Thiel.

You know, there's this, even within this group we're describing, there's a lot of different factions.

And I think one of those groups is very concerned about things like Palantir, this kind of techno-surveillance authoritarian state that Peter Thiel represents.

And so I think you're right to assess that J.D.

Vance sees that he has to kind of keep the regular Republicans that he inherits as the vice president, while also not really angering the Groypers and people like that.

Yeah.

I mean, look, I mean, you can see how big the kind of the right wing media of it all is.

And as you said, I mean, people like these are not –

typical kind of Fox News Republican media figures either.

I mean, Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson.

AmFest is very much, I think, who's invited and who's not really says a lot about the direction of the Republican Party, at least as TPUSA wants to control it to be.
