Right-Wing Media Harms Itself with Its Own Delusions | 6/12/24 Conservative Review with Daniel Horowitz
-
- News Commentary
For today’s special show, I go through the two false premises on right-wing media. Right-wing media believe that we are ahead in the elections and just need to run out the clock. Right-wing media also believe that Trump will somehow be better than his first term without building a new movement focused on substance. I show how both of these premises are demonstrably false, and, in fact, Republicans are likely to lose control of Congress anyway. Now is precisely the time to have a budget fight over immigration. I explain why we will be unlikely to have an opportunity to properly govern next year and why the next president will be saddled with the first recession amid a cataclysmic-level debt and interest crisis. Rabble-rousing may or may not win elections — and increasingly is failing to do so — but let’s not kid ourselves about our ability to convert the current strategies into civilization-saving victories.
