I’d rather listen to nails on a chalkboard. Never liked Shapiro to begin with; after his pathetic reaction to President Trump, I now despise him.

Shapiro did nothing to support Trump. Shapiro lost his WABC slot in NYC, and went to the smaller station. https://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/203215/ben-shapiro-s-new-affiliate-in-new-york-wnym-am-97

“He asserts that the rioters on January 6, 2021, were authoritarians of the right. That is, they sought to overthrow the constitutional means by which we pass power peacefully from one president and party to the next”.

BS. Shapiro is a never Trumper.

“Shapiro, as usual, gets it half-right.” Truth is, it’s worldwide Technocracy, it’s owners 2,100 billionaire oligarchs, its Leviathans BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street, it’s eggheads Zbigniew Brzezinski, Gro Haarlem Brundtland and today Parag Khanna. Technocracy.news

Eventually someone on the right, a real leader, is going to have to stop writing books to make a buck and actually do something about it.

I agree. Our best and brightest--and most articulate--have podcasts and vlogs and books and small media companies. They need to buck up and run for office for the sake of this country. A lot of them are so dang good they would win, and they wouldn't have to stay in office long to have an effect. But it seems none of them want to run.

Another George Will Republican heard from. Shapiro isn’t quite there yet, but the only thing missing are the cocktail parties.

I am always amused by criticisms of various conservative influencers on the basis of their present or past objections to President Trump. One should always keep in mind that these folks have a much larger platform than the individual online commenter, they have been very successful in their efforts to reach an big audience and lastly....they are on our side, that is if the objective is saving the country rather than comprehending conservativism though the exclusive lens of political personality.

It's not your age, trust me! A lot of people have trouble listening to him, or even understanding him sometimes.

Shapiro is a higher functioning idiot.

I've always liked Michelle Malkin. She's spot-on and doesn't hold back her punches.

She's a brave and honorable woman--and honor is rare these days. She talks about what Shapiro did in a few of her podcasts. Very enlightening.

I had my doubts about Donald Trump also at first and did not vote for him in our Tennessee primary which always falls around March first with several other states under the name of Super Tuesday.

Later on he made sense to me and I said to myself if he does get the nomination I will vote for him. He did get it and I voted for him and he won.

Jan 6th was in response to the Authoritarian Left stealing the election in broad daylight.

You are correct, January 6th was NOT Authoritarian, it was a Militant Response to an Authoritarian Ambush Attack.

“authoritarians of the right”

Who are these people? Where are they? ...media, talk radio, rural folks? He gives no names.

I just cannot believe this. The Right is so anti authoritarian. I want to know where he is getting this. I want to know the Truth/truth. So, Mr S, tell the whole truth and I will buy your book.

"He asserts that the rioters on January 6, 2021, were authoritarians of the right. That is, they sought to overthrow the constitutional means by which we pass power peacefully from one president and party to the next."

So, he's full of crap and undercuts his own thesis.

They were peaceful protesters who got trolled by a bunch of leftists working with the FBI and Capitol Police.

They did NOT seek "to overthrow", but rather protest the UNCONSTITUTIONAL theft of the Presidency.

Ben Shapiro is half right and half a$$ed, and he can kiss mine until he figures out who the real Authoritarians are.

Shapiro’s transparent equivocation, discrediting the peaceful protest of Jan 6 as a parallel of leftist criminality, is absurd on its face.
