SAAGER WAS UNBELIEVABLY GREAT YESTERDAY! OMG!! It was IMPRESSIVE!
Of the two of them Saagar is definitely more conservative and can be quite insightful.
However, the most refreshing thing about The Hill’s “rising” show is that both Krystal Ball and Saggar are intellectually honest, and neither is a talking points partisan.
Krystal Ball is a progressive, but she’s the rarest variety of progressive in that she is smart, well-informed, and intellectually honest. Even when I think she gets the facts wrong, I really believe that she’s trying to be intellectually honest. I often disagree with her, but appreciate her for making the very best progressive arguments. Of course, I also appreciate that she calls out lying, hypocrisy, and smugness of both Democrats and Republicans.
