I cannot stand Shapiro.

At 2:10 in the video, he mentions how Trump is vulgar. (Ok fair enough). But then Shapiro mentions that "Romney is the epitome of class and moderation". I stopped listening.

He sounded a bit sarcastic when he was saying that.

Rock_Flag_Eagle 30 points ago +33 / -3

Yeah that's his style. He was saying that in a mocking way. I used to listen to Shapiro every day a couple of years ago, but I got tired of his nevertrumpism and his neocon nonsense.

He's voting trump

He’s voting Trump until 9 days before the election when he becomes utterly disgusted at what Trump said or did for the 800th time.

Beware of those on the right that are allowed to trend and promoted by YouTube.

Shapiro is blatantly conservative, his speaking events were canceled several times by ree warriors. If someone isn't "high energy" with a MAGA hat and gadsden flag, it doesn't necessarily mean they are going to abstain from voting or toss their hat in with the commies. Shapiro doesn't much care for Trump's personality, but stands with him; you don't much care for Shapiro, but should stand with him. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." We have too many forces lined up against us to turn away the voices on our side. Shapiro might be able to reach the fence sitters better than the MAGA crowd can.

Even a broken cuck errr I mean clock is right twice a day. I like some of his thinking, but he just lacks wisdom or experience, however you want to define what used to be called gravitas.

When the bullets start flying he's going to be hiding under a desk crying. Fucking Mittens? Really go slap some sense into yourself Ben.

He would watch America burn and not give a shit if the Jews were left alone. He's a tribal dude.

I like Shapiro. He is one of these rare guys who stick to their guns, no matter what. He has a huge following and is quite influential. He will vote for Trump in November and recommends the same to his listeners. At the same time, he reserves the right to criticize the president when he believes criticism is due. That is not bad. Everyone of us - including Donald Trump - is well advised to listen to our critics. Ben Shapiro is never nasty or hateful. He tries to make his case as good as he can. This earns my respect, even if I don't always agree with him.

aussie_maga 21 points ago +28 / -7

I don't hate criticism of Trump. This is why I can listen to a lot of other content creators like Tim Pool, Styx, Razorfist, America Uncovered, Crowder, etc. Even Paul Joseph Watson criticizes Trump for his tweets.

For me personally, there is a difference between criticism and injecting NeverTrumpism.

When I listen to Shapiro, I get the sense that he does not just stop at criticism, he slowly tries to convert listeners to be NeverTrumpers down the line.

In that clip, if Shapiro criticized Trump and stopped at that, it is fine. But the dropping and contrasting with Romney unnecessarily is a mind injection that to me feels the same way how news readers inject TDS into their news.

It's a shame because Shapiro has intellect to break down things really well.

That's just me, I guess.

RuPaw 9 points ago +12 / -3

I listened to the whole 50 minutes of today's podcast from which this clip is taken.

Stunning, that you believe that Shapiro criticized Trump and stopped at it. That's simply not true. The whole show summarized in one simple sentence: Democrats in Congress are hateful morons!

2
aussie_maga 2 points ago +4 / -2

What I mean is that in that criticism at Trump, if Shapiro stopped at that and did not inject Romney, it would have been fine.

I eventually listened to the whole vid as well, and I don't think he criticized Trump as a whole. Overall, a good vid. I do listen to Shapiro at times to mine for useful arguments to use in my political discussions. But I listen to him WARY that he is a NeverTrumper and ignore the subtle injections he uses.

7
PeachmintsPepe45 7 points ago +9 / -2

He's not a NeverTrumper If he's voting for the President. He doesn't care for the guy’s personality. Fine. Some won't. I understand that. But he WANTS Donald Trump to win. And Iikes what he has done.

1
RuPaw 1 point ago +2 / -1

I understand your point. Ben Shapiro liked Romney back when he ran against Obama and defended him against the vicious attacks from the Clinton/Obama camp. Shapiro is openly religious and I believe that he admired Romney that he too didn’t hide his religious believes, despite the attacks. Shapiro doesn’t seem to appreciate Romney‘s recent Anti-Trump stance though.

He uses Romney as a foil of failure to explain why Republicans are voting for Trump. Romney is a loser, Republicans recognized that and decided they needed someone who is the opposite. Where Romney is a polite and meek loser, Trump is brash and aggressive winner. Romney is being held up as an example of what doesn't win.

6
IntrepidBurger 6 points ago +7 / -1

I listen to him daily, but my chief gripe with him is how blind to how his brand of traditional conservatism is exactly why conservatives have been losing for 30 years. He is the reason for Trump. But he's too clueless to give up his safety blanket of an ideology.

Nope, he's a turbocuck and a screeching little SJW loser.

Look up the Michelle Fields incident, and you'll see that he believes facts care about his precious feefees.

He’s been so bad lately. His interview with Rogan was enraging.

Ben is a neocon edge-lord. He has to come out and be different no matter what. If his take is wrong he will keep maintaining its true, because his pride won’t allow him to admit otherwise.

_Sully_ 1 point ago +4 / -3

He really pissed me off with that dumb comment about the old man agitator. Did he even watch the video and follow up? Nope, mean cops it is. Fuckin' asshole.

Yeah, that comment pissed me off. For a guy who allegedly prides himself on "Muh facts".

10
Avenatti2020 10 points ago +12 / -2

He acts like he is principled, but definitely isn’t.

He said for YEARS despite Bongino educating him and all the evidence present that Russian collusion was a hoax that he needed to see the evidence and the Mueller probe be completed. To re-iterate, he said we didn’t have enough evidence to make a conclusion.

When it came to the Stormy allegations against Trump, not once did he ask for evidence, he acted like it was 100% true without giving it a second thought.

I stopped listening to him awhile ago but did he ever recant on his tariff position where he said it was going to be awful and horrible only to get stumped by Trump? I doubt it.

7
PeachmintsPepe45 7 points ago +8 / -1

Exactly. He WANTS President Trump to win and compliments him when he feels he deserves it but he obviously has issues with the President's personality which some will. That's perfectly fine. My parents don't like the President. They think he's just a cocky douche and haven't and don't care to see the other sides of him. But will still vote for him most likely.

Staatssicherheit 7 points ago +10 / -3

The guy didn't vote for Trump in 2016. I would love to see the clip of him saying he will vote for Trump in 2020.

Ben Shapiro was nasty and hateful towards Corey Lewandowski. He white-knighted for Michelle Fields and called for Corey to be destroyed. Shapiro never apologized to Corey after videotape came out disproving what Fields alleged.

That's basically what all the leftists are doing. They just can't let go of voting for the Democrats and voting for a Republican although they disagree with the majority of what the Democrats doing and the direction they are heading. Old habits die hard.

He wasn't referring to Mittens that way. He was speaking as somebody else observing Trump/Romney to make a point.

aussie_maga 1 point ago +2 / -1

Still don't like Shapiro. But to be fair, I did replay that 2x so I can see what you're saying. He speaks fast and the delivery is not that good. I also find the name dropping of Romney a bit unnecessary. It is a good vid nonetheless.

I used to like ben but hes very obviously now just an establishment dope who is more interested in gatekeeping than defending america. Listen ben, i dont give a flying fuck if trump swears. Whats the bigger issue, trump having a potty mouth or democrats/deep state racially dividing this country, pushing us towards civil war, and protecting pedophiles?

Jebus454 2 points ago +3 / -1

Shapiro called Trump an idiot and claimed he didn't understand how tariffs worked. My problem with Shapiro isn't that he disagrees with Trump it's that he continually fails to learn anything from his own stupidity and will never even consider the fact that someone might have a better idea than him. If he knows so much and Trump is so stupid why doesn't he run? It's easy to take potshots from the gallery but if you are just going to criticize with no skin in the game that just makes you a coward in my book. He is the conservative that has sat back and allowed Trump and his personality to become an absolute necessity.

Covfefe_Crusader 1 point ago +2 / -1

No matter what his annoying little buttboys here claim, shapiro is a never-Trumper every bit as much as bill kristol. He represents the legacy establishment right wing of the uniparty and his so called "support" for Trump only exists because he is a greedy opportunist that is playing along and biding his time for Trump's loss or the end of his second term so he can get back to shreiking full throated, globalist approved, anti-American propaganda. He would burn America to the ground to benefit israel and has as much to do with MAGA as Ilhan Omar or AOC.

The fucking neocon shills here are nauseating filth and have obviously infested this site. Once Trump has served his terms don't want to vote for any more republicans because of the shills for pieces of shit like this.

I wished he would rag more on democrats and less on Trump. There is a reason TheDonald exists and other politicians, Republican or Democrat, don't have a similar platform. But he definitely is right about the Democrats in the Judiciary Committee. That was a complete crap show.

So, looking through the comments, a huge number of "rag on Ben comments". Hardly any discussion regarding the subject of the post. Along with many other sources, I watch him regularly and find he is one of the most intelligent and politically knowledgeable personalities out there today...right or left. I don't agree with everything he says, but I don't agree with everything anyone says. I don't get it. Maybe he talks too fast for you?

That being said, regarding "Reclaiming my time", why the fuck did none of the Republicans point this out during the hearing?
