Ben is setting himself up to be the next Rush Limbaugh - he has his podcast, YouTube channel and is now being syndicated by Westwood One over FM/AM radio. He is getting a big push by big companies and he wants to be the voice for “conservatives.”

We need to stop him because he will poison this movement and will sucker people with Romneys and McCains.

The people here were responsible for the destruction of The Weekly Standard. Shapiro and similar fakes have to end up in the same way. They are the 3% “Republicans” that don’t approve of GEOTUS.

Here is the background of how he was manufactured https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2018/12/how-hollywood-invented-ben-shapiro

He's no Rush

But he's young and has decades in front of him

We'll see what happens. Definitely looks as OP paints it unless someone else jumps out ahead

Without Rush, people will be looking for something to fill that gap (advertisers, broadcasters). Otherwise they risk losing thousands of eyes and ears.

That's the point of the post.

Shapiro has decades in front of him and he will spend that time turning all the people who joined the conservative movement because of Trump, into little Bushs and McCains.

That has always been his use for the establishment. Steer all these new young conservatives away from Trumpism and into Bushism.

But who’s in the position to overtake him?

I see no one. That’s the point of my comment. Who else but him? You tell me

Overtake who? Rush?

No one can overtake Rush.

And if someone would overtake Rush, why would it be Shapiro? He doesn't even have half the audience Crowder does.

Shapiro is propped up by big money and the MSM who try to paint him as the voice of conservatives. Rush never had any of that, Rush came up through the grassroots.
