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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.

That's just me, I guess.

He can't help but to be sneaky and underhanded.
It's the little beanie that makes him do it.
