When one holds a political position that 'transcends the 2 party paradigm', it is very easy to be smug and arrogant like this guy was, since his ideas have never been held by people in power and have no accountability. Call me old fashioned, but he was very rude.

I liked this guy, he brought up legitimate points about how despite rhetoric nothing really changes. However there is a lot of momentum in Washington and taking control doesn’t appear to be a smooth or easy task. My hope is that the political persecution and the addition of Musk, Vance, RFK, Tulsi and others gives Trump more fight this time.

No offence, but Tracey absolutely schooled you. You seemed out of your depth during this entire conversation.

I’m not offended. I let the guy say what he wanted it wasn’t a debate, I offered very little push back. The whole point was to air the perspective of an honest, informed person who does not support Trump, not to argue with him. This is a pro-Trump show and I wanted to offer another angle bc I think it’s valid. If one wants to hear the counter to what Tracey is saying, listen to my other pro-Trump episodes

Your voice is very familiar, did you do a podcast with John David Ebert a while back?

Tracey is better than most of the fake conservatives; at least he is honest and not afraid of being critical of the Democratic Party

I don’t think he’s a fake conservative. He seems independent/ I despise the GOP and like Trump, to me that’s the simplest thing in the world, but he doesn’t think there’s any difference in 2024. It’s in the show. I don’t push him or argue much bc that’s not why I had him on

No Tracey is a lib but an honest and sharp guy. , Trump I is a 1990s liberal/civnat. I was referring more to grifters like Charlie Kirk, lil Benji and (lord help us) the groypers. Glad you had him on, I’ll probably listen to the podcast later

Michael Tracey being a fag. If he can’t tell the difference between Trump and the neocon GOP, he’s fucking lying

Nah, I don’t think he’s lying, but I disagree with him. I didn’t argue I wanted to let him speak. I appreciate his criticisms, otherwise I wouldn’t have had him on. His essays are very good
