28.405 - 48.921 Ben Shapiro

Well, the left feels that finally has some room to run after the supposed scandal of a bunch of Trump national security officials who are on a signal chat together and... Someone from National Security Advisor Mike Walz's office accidentally invited Jeffrey Goldberg, the execrable editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, into the chat.

And there, a conversation ensued all about when and how to strike the Houthis in Yemen. And people are pretending to be extremely angry about this. When I say people are pretending, what I mean is that there used to be a time, say 15 years ago, when national security breaches based on revelation of classified information would have been a national scandal.

And now we have been through this many times and no one has been prosecuted. And so the idea that anyone takes this stuff super seriously at the top level is kind of ridiculous. Of course, I mentioned this yesterday when Hillary Clinton was let off the hook by the FBI. and by James Comey. At that point, basically, it was open season on screwing around with the classified information.

89.077 - 105.537 Ben Shapiro

And so the idea that Americans are sitting around their kitchen tables today saying to themselves, oh my God, I can't believe that they invited a reporter into a signal chat and then nothing happened and the Houthis got hit with missiles. I just don't think that that is going to motivate the American public to move away from President Trump.

105.777 - 116.961 Ben Shapiro

And that is what the evidence, by the way, is showing right now. Harry Enten over on CNN, he says that despite all of the Democratic attempts to paint President Trump as deeply unpopular, the numbers are better for President Trump than literally any time in his political career.

118.638 - 134.539 Harry Enten

All we talk about is how unpopular Donald Trump is. But in reality, he's basically more popular than he was at any point in term number one, and more popular than he was when he won election back in November of 2024. What are we talking about? His net favorable rating right now comes in at minus four points.

135.12 - 149.939 Harry Enten

Compare that to where he was when he won in November of 2024 when he was at minus seven points or March of 2017 when he was at minus 10 points. So when you compare Trump against himself, he's actually closer to the apex than he is to the bottom of the trough.
