Is he a perfect embodiment of our movement? No. Does he unfairly criticize Trump at times in a very leftist manner? Yes and I hate it. Does he believe the election was stolen despite mountains of evidence? No and I hate that too.
But is he correct on issues the vast majority of the time? Yes. Is he slowly amassing a giant conservative entertainment media conglomerate to finally fight against the left wing media base? Yes. Is he redpilling people left and right while regularly shitting savagely on leftists? Hell yes.
I get that Shapiro isn’t the 100% America First media mogul we need. But he’s damn close and I feel like making him out as a “leftist ally” and “enemy” is a step too far.
"Our movement"? What movement is that? If you're referring to Trumps vision and the MAGA movement then Benji is an existential threat to both Trump and MAGA. Has been for years. Benjis was left behind enemy lines where he could do maximum damage when more senior operatives were unmasked, lost their followers and influence in conservative normie world and migrated to Democrat World where they could inflict damage as MSM " conservative " talking heads. Think Bill Kristol, Max Boot, French. Jennifer Rubin.
Benji, being second string, wasn't as publically damaged during the "conservative" battle to destroy Trump and elect Hillary. This allowed him to stay behind enemy lines, rehab his reputation and retain influence with "muh Trump did this good thing bUt..." Mind poisoning marketed as being objective. WeRe nOt a cUlT gUyS. WeRe tOo sMaRt aNd pRiNvIpLeD tO bE bLiNd fOlLoWeRs oR cUlTiSts lIkE TrUmPs MAGA BrOs. Accepting then parroting disinformation marketed as proof of superior intelligence and principled virtue. Lmao. Clever. Evil. Effective.
