It's a tragic mistake to think they "saw the error of their ways," rather than that they're making a cynical strategic calculation.
I will never, ever, EVER forgive Ben Shapiro for acting like a leftist and staging the Michelle Field hoax in 2016. He was going around all the liberal networks lying and saying that "Trump hires thugs," "Trump supporters are brownshirts," or in 2017 when he said, "Trump emboldens white supremacists".
He was echoing every CNN talking-point and coordinating with the left.
Slate magazine had an article entitled "Is Ben Shapiro The Kind of Conservative the Left Can Rely On?"
The answer to that is, unreservedly, yes.
He is a pied piper. A tool of the left. That's why he was trying to get Republicans to back an unelectable candidate in 2016 (Marco Rubio). And after Rubio went down in flames, he was literally telling his audience that "Hillary was the conservative choice".
Ben's job is to lead the right to defeat. Period. End of story.
Spoiler: Ben Shapiro is not a conservative. He never was. Look at how angry he got when the phrase "America First" was rolled out. He went more ballistic than most Democrats. As a dual citizen, love for America offended him. It threatened him. Hm. Why would that be?
Teddy Roosevelt has an insight to Mr. Shapiro: "The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic. The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American. There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else."
thank you! great comment fuck shapiro ill never forgive him for the Michelle Field incident and being a never trumper leading up to the election along with Guy Benson. Fuck em all!
Oh man, you fell for Beck's act hook line and sinker. Chyna-owned Justin Amash called for GEOTUS to be impeached last year, and Cheeto Face endorsed him for President in 2024 shortly after.
And don't even get me started on that POS getting rescued from bankruptcy by Mark Levin and CRTV, only to immediately fire Gavin McInnes.
In my short time listing to Ben he don't sound like a never Trumper to me he criticize trump but he also talks about the good stuff he does. Wouldn't a never Trumper never acknowledge that he does do and has done good? I've only been listening to political stuff since the riots started though so I could be wrong
McCinnes has literally gotten butt naked, bent over and spread his asscheeks on camera. I find some of his stuff to be funny from time to time, but he can also be just plain gross. He’s not a guy you want to display as being on your team.
That’s the truth.Ben Shapiro is not bad but Gavin can do a lot more in a battle than Shapiro who easily falters when challenged by any rising conservative.
Shapiro, Beck, Coulter, Drudge - they are all cut from the same cloth. They are all just opportunists. Whatever gets them the most attention or viewers.
I've always felt Coulter is part opportunist, part nut. But like a lot of these guys, she's right more often than she's wrong because she fights the left. There's no doubt they're the fringe of the right, though.
But I don't know if you can count Drudge here. As far as I know he doesn't have anything to do with his site at all anymore since he sold out to globalist money. The only thing I can say for sure about him is that he loved the money more than his principles. Andrew Breitbart wouldn't have let his growing online empire turn into a leftist rag.
Be careful with that mindset, don't get me wrong, there's plenty of things to not like about Ben - but there's also a lot of people voting for Trump this year who didn't vote for him in 2016 because they didn't know what to expect from Trump. Just because people were uneasy about Trump back then doesn't mean their garbage
That being said, Ben does have plenty of other takes to call him garbage over. I'm just saying the Hillary thing isn't the best metric. Also keep in mind, Ben does support plenty of great conservative values. We shouldn't behave like the left where we eat are own because they aren't 100% on our side. You will rarely ever find someone in politics who has the exact same values as you on every single policy. It just doesn't happen much, and throwing people overboard like that is how you lose moderates
I don't think someone like him would be privy to that information. He just does what his handlers tell him. The DS is able to convince people by playing to their loyalties, without letting them in on all the secrets.
Yea he was a never-Trumper (at the time) but he didn't tell people to vote for Hillary.
He's been quite pro Trump over the last few years. Plus I think many of his criticisms on Trump are legitimate and ultimately healthy to potentially help push Trump to address some of his flaws.
He said he was willing to have a Hillary presidency to stop Trump from destroying conservatism. If it was up to him, and stopping Trump from destroying conservatism, the Supreme Court would be 6-3 in favor of Marxists right now and America would be done.
Shapiro is a Bush/Romney/McCain Republican. If you think he is in any way on Trump's side you are clearly mistaken. And I don't believe it falls on Shapiro's hands to "push" Trump to address his flaws. Especially when Trump's flaws in Shapiro's eyes is that he isn't more like Bush/Romney and doesn't adopt their policies.
Also which of his criticisms there seems "legitimate" to you? Is calling Trump a "garbage heap of a human being" legitimate criticism to you?
Wow that's amazing if true. I have no problem if people don't personally like Trump - you're allowed to vote for who you want to - but most of those claims are so outrageous, with no basis in reality, that they have to be talking points put forward by "someone else" influencing him. He really is a fraud.
Edit: Just for fun I have copied some of the best quotes here, but replaced Trump with Ben Shapiro.

I'm thinking you'd feel more at home on Democratic Underground. (Yeah, I've read enough of your post history to think you're probably a Trump supporter. I've also read enough to think you need to reevaluate your other hero.)
That’s what started all of his TDS. He believed an overly dramatic woman that wanted attention. She said that she was shoved to the ground by Lewandowski and Ben believed her without question. A video of the incident was released a day or two later that showed she was clearly lying. Lewandowski was just trying to get Trump through a packed crowd and he barely bumped into her, she didn’t fall and it isn’t clear that they even made contact.
Ben immediately resigned from his lead role at Breitbart because all of his workers hated him at that point. Then he started his podcast where he spent the next 5 months trying to make his case against Trump because his entire reputation was now at stake.
Had he not tried to defend that lying bitch, I have a feeling that Ben would have come around and supported Trump just like guys like Mark Levin, Stephen Crowder, and Ted Cruz did.
Can you explain what is wrong with Zionism? Honest question. My understanding was that Zionists believe in a national Jewish state, with Jerusalem as its capital, that is large and powerful enough to protect its sovereignty. Is there more to it?
Except for the capital part it seems like Zionism is just defending the Jewish state. I asked this before, but is it like "Feminism" where they already have equality but are really asking for much more?
To be fair to Shapiro and Glenn Beck, they have both admitted the error of their ways.
Shapiro is still a cocky dbag though who constantly jumps on the NeverTrumper wagon again.
Beck, on the other hand, has basically gone 100% in support of Trump.
It's a tragic mistake to think they "saw the error of their ways," rather than that they're making a cynical strategic calculation.

thank you! great comment fuck shapiro ill never forgive him for the Michelle Field incident and being a never trumper leading up to the election along with Guy Benson. Fuck em all!
How Ben Shapiro and Charlie Kirk treated the groypers and Michelle Mallon should be eye opening to any conservative.
Oh man, you fell for Beck's act hook line and sinker. Chyna-owned Justin Amash called for GEOTUS to be impeached last year, and Cheeto Face endorsed him for President in 2024 shortly after.
And don't even get me started on that POS getting rescued from bankruptcy by Mark Levin and CRTV, only to immediately fire Gavin McInnes.
Cheeto Face is a two-faced RINO snake.
This

Wouldn't a never Trumper never acknowledge that he does do and has done good? I've only been listening to political stuff since the riots started though so I could be wrong
Correct. This is from before Trump was elected. He has to be on Trump's side now to stay relevant.
McCinnes has literally gotten butt naked, bent over and spread his asscheeks on camera. I find some of his stuff to be funny from time to time, but he can also be just plain gross. He’s not a guy you want to display as being on your team.

Shapiro & Beck >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sandy vagina and fedora cuck.
You've completely discredited yourself by lumping those four together.
Bold take there Cotton.
Lol let the votes fall as they may. Who cares about imaginary internet points.
Shapiro told people to vote for Clinton?? Source?
Some of Shitpiro's greatest hits pre 2016 election https://imgur.com/a/hwLYrqS
You're a legend.
Imagine reading this and walking away thinking "he's okay though..."
Some people just have to worship 5' secret kings
Shapiro is garbage and will always be garbage.
He'll never endorse Trump directly and is deathly afraid of possiblity that Trump will declassify/expose who REALLY did 9/11
Hello E Team
Game over Shapiro you little worm

Pro Trump?
Retard in the house
Jewish? Trumps Only flaw is that he occasionally might listen to Schills like Shapiro.

In 2016, yeah. He had one of the worst political hot takes in history, and I'm including The Young Turks in this group.
He's come a long way since then. He's warmed up to Trump, but he still has his mental spasms once in a while.
God you're a clueless cunt

Bye cuck!
Never forget what that manlet fag tried to do to Corey Lewandowski. And he still to this day refuses to apologize for it.
I loathe that neocon cretin.
