I think this is pretty shocking.
Listened to you last night on the way home…was that Bill Crystal (?) on the mic? I did not know about you Michael till last night…but another Michael, goes by Medved, was my favorite talk show host for years. I was a member up to one day when he called TRUMP a Fascist. That makes me a fascist. He, like Crystal, is a ‘never Trumper.’ I did not know you were either until last night. You also insulted me and Conservatives. We cant have a polite conversation? Really? We are closed minded! REALLY! Your condensation last light was personal…go back and listen to yourself. I think you forgot you were on the air…
Buddy, I am not going to listen to you. Its the only thing I have left. Everything else has been taken away by the Oligarchy that rules over us. The Two Party System is really a ‘double Nelson,’ around the torso of the Republic. Its a sham. I dont think you understand us, Michael. I know you dont understand TRUMP, why he was elected and why, when it comes to a choice between the Status Quo and ANYTHING else, whatever comes has gotta be better than the shi#hole we are digging ourselves into…yeah, its that bad if you pay attention…but, me being a Conservative; what do I know…
So, we (small ‘w’) dont give a rats AS# what TRUMP says…what we want is what Lincoln wanted in a Commander when approached about Grant and told that ‘he’s a drunk.’ “Yes,” Abe replied, “BUT HE FIGHTS!” Yes, TRUMP has his baggage, BUT HE FIGHTS!!! AND he fights our mortal enemy…its that sharp in focus, even if you cant see it…last night I found your vision may need some corrective lenses.
Dont feel bad though, I have cancelled my Medved subscription of 8 years, dont listen a syllable that Crystal deems worthy of an exhale and Red State; FOGETBOUTIT…as our mentor would say. So, you are in good company. What we want is to FIGHT the LEFT and get rid of the fake Republicans who have for years talked the line to win re election, then gone along to get along…over.
Good luck to you…
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. Hope you’ll change your mind about listening, but hey–there are a lot of great podcasts to choose from.
I’m not happy about the current state of the conversation on the Right. I’m not happy that people who once claimed to be “facts over feels” are giving into their feelings and ignoring facts like and SJW at a “Scream Pointlessly At The Sky” rally. But it’s true.
And that’s why I’m stuck. What’s the point of having a conversation if we’re not going to be honest. That means sometimes we’re going to disagree.
