Another thing about populist inc is that when they make the case for "Trumpism without Trump," they pretty much say he was the worst president ever who never accomplished anything. That probably doesn't do anything besides piss off the base. You'd think they would try to say something that is less irritating, like that he shouldn't run because he is banned from most things and wouldn't be able to get his message out.

Good episode. Very glad to be proven wrong on the doomer "election is rigged" stuff.

Thoughts on the astroworld disaster? Also why would one go to a rap concert?

Feels great to be whitepilled but much to be done.

Also exit polls are garbage. Youngkin definitely outperformed Trump with Hispanics but he probably isn’t winning NOVA Salvadorans outright.

And Youngkin DEFINITELY outperformed Trump with college whites across the board.

You aren’t getting within 10 points in Loudoun or Manassas like Youngkin without significantly outperforming Trump/Gillespie with college white women or Hispanics.

Here is Pedro Gonzalez defending the whitelash on Twitter and making the argument I believe Jared Taylor has made before. If you are going to attack white people as a group, don't be surprised if they start acting as a group in self defense.

Also, J.D. Vance gave a speech at the National Conservatism conference last night calling universities "our enemy." This is significant step, but I haven't seen much of a plan beyond things like calling for a ban on CRT in schools. Youngkin will push charter schools, which are probably a harmless waste of money. Does anyone have a plan to break the education cartel? What do you think a feasible plan to do that would look like?

In a recent tweet and also in an episode of Highly Respected, you claimed that Gavin Newsom would be the best candidate Democrats could put up in 2024. I disagree.

Newsom would play terribly as a presidential candidate. He has negative appeal to WWC voters and only someone like Kamala would do worse with them, does meh in the suburbs that aren’t in places like Boston or SFO, and would collapse with non whites- he underperformed with them even in CA (mostly with Hispanics, whom moved rightwards post Trump even in Virginia but especially in NJ, contrary to what popular myths or CNN exits will tell you).

It would also be very easy for Republicans to portray him as a Bay Area radical. He’d be an abysmal candidate and Republicans shouldn’t fear him in 2024. DeSantis or Trump would probably defeat him easily.
