    John McWhorter – Last Words before the Election

    If you subscribe only to the free version of this podcast, you’ll notice this episode has arrived a few days early. I figured that by Friday, when the episode normally drops for the general public, it will be out of date already, so we’re releasing it to everyone today. If you find you enjoy starting your week with The Glenn Show, consider becoming a paying subscriber, which will get you early access to episodes, along with a host of other benefits. Subscribe to The Glenn Show on Substack at https://glennloury.substack.com [Note: In the episode, John mistakenly referred to the author of a biography of Ronald Reagan as George Will. He meant to reference Max Boot’s Reagan: His Life and Legacy.] 1:39 Pre-election jitters 3:23 Will Democrats contest the election if it goes Trump’s way? 4:44 A crisis for democracy, maybe, but not the end of democracy 10:02 John’s case against Trump’s proposed second administration 15:36 Ground News ad 17:28 The Obamas’ attempted intervention and post-presidential performance 26:58 The mind of the informed Trump voter 34:20 A revisionist history of the Trump presidency (or presidencies) 41:15 Is Trump losing it or just tired of campaigning? 44:25 The Washington Post and the LA Times decline to endorse 47:48 Glenn and John’s election night plans 50:48 The nightmare scenario Recorded November 3, 2024 Links and Readings Shelby Steele’s book, A Bound Man: Why We Are Excited about Obama and Why He Can’t Win Jimmy Carter’s book, Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid John’s NYT column, “Donald Trump Is Bored” Max Boot’s book, Reagan: His Life and Legacy Everybody Loves Raymond: The Complete Series DVD box set Douglas Murray’s Free Press piece, “Things Worth Remembering: Whoever Loses, They Should Lose Like Nixon” This is a public episode.
