You guys are great and I admire what you do. I do think you have a major blind spot where Trump supporters are concerned. Very few journalists are able to cross that line but some have managed it, like Matt Taibbi and Glenn Greenwald.

You guys are great and I admire what you do. I do think you have a major blind spot where Trump supporters are concerned. Very few journalists are able to cross that line but some have managed it, like Matt Taibbi and Glenn Greenwald. For me it is a litmus test to see whether a writer is truly able to assess this moment, or whether they are still a part of the mass panic that has gripped our country. Why not find a writer to rep that world just a little bit and cover things like the 2020 election, not from the POV of "widespread fraud" but how the media and big money (one billion) tilted an elected in the favor of the democrats and why that is a genuine threat to Democracy Itself.
I would suggest David Mamet or Ben Shapiro for a reasonable take on Trump, etc.
You’ve got to be ready for a barrage of words when listening to Ben. That’s for sure!
I could see Ben and Bari getting along really well. He’s a very sincere serious person with an extraordinary intellect. He’d be a great mentor for her access to the conservative world. He could also help her with Trump. I think Ben does a good job looking at Trump objectively. He praises the good and criticizes the bad. Bari needs that balance.

Anyway, just my two cents.
Wait, what? David Mamet the playwright? I had no idea he had a side gig as a commentator! Very interested in checking that out.
Molly Hemingway or John Solomon.
Those 2 would fall under the "claims of widespread fraud" category.
I’d love to see a Ben Shapiro article!
Definitely Ben Shapiro and David Mamet. I would really love to hear David interviewed on the Honestly podcast.
Gregg...Ben does great, i do wish he would slow down, he does get the detail.
