Podcast appearances and mentions of Christopher Caldwell

Attentive listeners will notice that this episode is about a book but isn't an author interview. That's because it's the first in a new occasional series of episodes that will be dedicated to books by conservative writers that we think are important — whether because a book articulates the right's approach to an issue or problem in an especially revealing way, influenced or galvanized the conservative movement when it was published, or, with the benefit of hindsight, has proven to be prescient about where the right, and perhaps the country, were heading. Many of these books will be from decades past, but our first selection is more recent: Christopher Caldwell's 2020 broadside against the 1964 Civil Rights Act and what it wrought, The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties. Caldwell argues that the apparatus created by civil rights legislation and the federal courts in the 1960s amounted to a new, second constitution that displaced the one Americans had lived under since the founding, one that jettisoned traditional liberties like freedom of association and replaced democratic self-government with rule by bureaucrats, lawyers, and judges. Who has access to these new levers of power? Not the working class whites who are neither a favored racial or ethnic minority — a person of color — nor a member of the progressive elites who preside over the new regime. Much of The Age of Entitlement is dedicated to tracing the effects of civil rights legislation when it comes to the causes that arose in its wake: feminism, immigrant rights, gay marriage, and more. But the book is equally a brutal examination of the legacy of the Baby Boom generation (and, by extension, Ronald Reagan, whose presidency they powered), that most "entitled" of generations, whom Caldwell deplores for wanting to have their cake and eat it, too. Boomers, in Caldwell's telling, refused to straightforwardly reject the second constitution and its distributional demands, while also insisting petulantly, again and again, on having their taxes cut. We explore these topics and more, and end with a discussion of where Caldwell leaves the reader — and where we're at now, in light of the challenge he poses to both conservatives and the left.Sources:Christopher Caldwell, The Age of Entitlement: America Since the Sixties (2020)— Reflections on the Revolution In Europe: Immigration, Islam and the West (2009)Helen Andrews, "The Law That Ate the Constitution," Claremont Review of Books, Winter 2020Timothy Crimmins, "America Since the Sixties: A History without Heroes," American Affairs, Summer 2020Perry Anderson, "Portents of Eurabia," The National, Aug 27, 2009. ...and don't forget to subscribe to Know Your Enemy on Patreon for access to all of our bonus episodes!

Earlier this week on Honestly, Batya Ungar-Sargon, Brianna Wu, and Christopher Caldwell shared their views on President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance's showdown with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, and on the Russia-Ukraine war more generally. Simply put, Batya and Chris made the case that Russia is not an American adversary in the way China is and that Trump's seeming sympathy toward Russian president Vladimir Putin is actually a strategic play to pull Russia away from China and into our orbit. The conversation is provocative. It provoked many of us here at The Free Press. Not all of our listeners agreed with what they heard either. For some, it was frustrating or even angering to hear this perspective. Yes, contrary to popular belief, we do read the comments. And there's been a tremendous amount of debate inside our newsroom about America's new posture regarding Russia and Ukraine, just as there is on all of the most important topics of the day. We think that's our strength. We believe in listening to arguments, in good faith, from people we respect. And if our panel show earlier in the week was dominated by a perspective sympathetic to Trump, today we want to offer a very different perspective from Eli Lake, Free Press reporter and the host of our new podcast, Breaking History. In this episode, Eli explores how a different Republican president—Ronald Reagan—spoke out against Russian aggression. And how his words inspired dissidents from across the Soviet bloc, like the Czech playwright Václav Havel, to lead their own countries to freedom. This is a show that looks to the past to illuminate the present, and we think this episode is especially important right now. So today, Eli Lake on Breaking History.

It's been four days since the diplomatic earthquake went down in the Oval Office between President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Ukrainian president Zelensky. The world is still feeling the aftershocks. In Europe, leaders have been jolted into action. Ukraine's European allies, including British prime minister Keir Starmer and French president Emmanuel Macron, met in London on Sunday to forge their own peace plan and agree on additional support for Kyiv. In Moscow, officials are celebrating Trump's approach to the conflict—and his foreign policy more generally. “The new administration is rapidly changing all foreign policy configurations. This largely coincides with our vision,” said a Kremlin spokesman. Russian state TV described a new world order with Trump in the White House. In Washington, administration officials have made it clear that it is up to Zelensky to apologize and patch things up if there is any chance of a U.S.-Ukraine mineral deal. “The president believes Zelensky has to come back to the table and he has to be the one to come and make it right,” one official told NBC News. The Zelensky-Trump bust-up—and the war in Ukraine in general—is one of those important subjects where people we respect (including inside The Free Press newsroom) passionately disagree. There are plenty of other outlets that will give you only one strongly expressed view. But it is our conviction that the only way we can get to the truth is by seriously considering multiple perspectives. The differences of opinion start with the question of what, exactly, we all watched on Friday. Were Trump and Vance bullying a besieged ally in public? Or were we watching the White House finally stand up for American taxpayers? Then there are the bigger questions: Is Trump's Ukraine policy a long-overdue acknowledgment of the limits of American power? Or an unforced error that endangers not just America's allies but America itself? And what are the chances of peace with honor for Ukraine? Today we've brought together a group of people who answer those questions quite differently: Free Press columnist Batya Ungar-Sargon, Democratic fundraiser and strategist Brianna Wu, and special guest Christopher Caldwell, author of multiple books, including The Age of Entitlement. Both Batya and Christopher have pieces up in The Free Press right now: “Zelensky's Trumpian Trick” by Christopher Caldwell, and “What Average Americans Think of Trump's Showdown with Zelensky” by Batya Ungar-Sargon.  Other must-reads in The Free Press: "Trump's Foreign Policy Revolution" by Matthew Continetti "J.D. Vance's Fighting Words—Against Me and Ukraine" by Niall Ferguson "A Fiasco in the Oval Office" by Eli Lake "Ten Reasons for the Zelensky-Trump Blowup" by Victor Davis Hanson "What Zelensky Can Learn from Netanyahu" by Michael Oren Header 6: The Free Press earns a commission from any purchases made through all book links in this article.

Two paths diverge in a wood. On November 5th, America will decide which it travels by. Some, like Christopher Caldwell, say America 1.0 ended with the passage of the Civil Rights Act. It was here where the freedom of assembly was truly lost, and our path from experiment in liberty to experiment in race communism began.Others, like Curtis Yarvin, will say America 1.0 ended with FDR. It was actually he who turned the government towards diet Communism.Many still will say that the entire appellation is silly because of course America 1.0 ended with the Civil WarAll perspectives are technically right, but in this video I offer a new one. American men still believe in the American system, even if we complain about it a lot. If Trump wins, which I predict he will, we take the blue pill. Democracy, for it's flaws, will have worked. We'll enter a decade long period of great prosperity, for America as a whole, but especially for those of us who have put skin in the game on nationalism and Trump. Based businesses will blow up, straight white dudes will get hired as fancy consultants, right wingers will get important TV deals. We'll all get rich and get laid like never before. It'll be a beautiful decade. Again, I think this is what will happen, and I think we'll find out night of, because Trump will win in too large of a landslide to “fortify.” But if Trump loses, something will happen to the psychology of the American male that has never happened before in the history of country—which is why I call it the real end of America 1.0. If Kamala Harris, deeply unpopular as a national Dem candidate and utterly incompetent as the literal border czar, and thus the overseer of the most pressing and present issue not just in American elections but every recent election in the Western world, is elected president via a freshly fortified voting system (an extreme form of democracy effectively amounting to a click-to-vote) that was overhauled after Trump won, ….well, just imagine if it were literally anything else? Let's take boxing, if an underdog won and then the favorite had the rules of boxing changed so that he won every subsequent rematch…even if those rules would agreed upon and there was no cheating, how would fans of the sport react? Their trust would be destroyed. It would be obviously illegitimate. They would have no choice but to lobby to fix it, or to abandon boxing altogether.In the political sense, this disenfranchisement will lead young men away from the distractions that have plagued us for nearly a century, which is to say towards the more natural statue of being politically engaged. The American male is perhaps the least political young male human in the history of the world. All prior generations for the past several centuries met in coffeeshops and pubs and dedicated their lives toward the formation of political parties and the participation in propaganda. Today's male holds his nose up at these activities, and perhaps, until now, justifiably so…better to focus on starting companies, innovating products, and getting rich. But all that changes if Trump loses. It's no coincidence that the UK is looking into banning “problematic drinking.” What they actually seek is to destroy the ability for young men to meet and plot and form political parties. “Coffeehouse Culture” was the precursor, in many ways, to the Age of Enlightenment that gave birth to America in the first place.“That mixture of news reading, discussion, sharing of ideas [was] absolutely crucial to the rapid spread of the coffeehouse during a period of rapid rise of knowledge,” Hawley explained. It was also the birthplace of periodical literature in England, whereby Hawley said “the coffeehouse was put on paper” in the form of essays. The periodicals Tatler and The Spectator were founded in 1709 and 1711, respectively, through collecting stories from the coffeeshops, which further forged them as the foremost place to learn the latest news.—— However, some thought this open sharing of news and political ideas was a threat to the monarchy. In 1675, King Charles II's ministers attempted to suppress and close down coffeehouses on the grounds of their “evil and dangerous effects”. The king feared that coffee may provoke instigation or the plotting of violence against the throne and ordered the “close of coffee-houses altogether”, although he later withdrew the ban two days before it was to be put into effect, Brian Cowan writes in The Social Life of Coffee: The Emergence of the British Coffeehouse.To be politically engaged is a less pleasant existence, to be sure. It's the red pill path. But it will also be a necessary correction, and will revert us to a more natural, purposeful state of being. Young men are built for power, not for powerpoint. Truly, the young man is purposeless without a hand in the destiny of his civilization. If Kamala wins, the illusions that have kept him uninvolved are broken for good. It's back to the coffeeshop we go.Eric Weinstein masterfully discusses the potential of breaking the spell of “Magician's Choice” here: I talk about this and more in above episode!The Carousel is a reader-supported publication.

Jon examines why Christians are shifting their view of MLK Jr. Martin Luther King's legacy remained unquestioned by both neo-conservatives and progressives for many years but that is starting to change, especially on the conservative side. As newer voices expose MLK's radical ideas, Christians are reexamining his faith, morality, and political views. Some Christians are evening shifting their view of MLK's "I Have a Dream Speech." Jon examines both contemporary voices like Daniel Darling, Josh Buice, Owen Strachan, Mike Pence, Christopher Rufo, Ron Desantis, Paul Kengor, Charlie Kirk, Virgil Walker as well as older conservative voices like Sam Francis and Christopher Caldwell. Most of the podcast simply examines MLK in his own words borrowing from speech compilations from the Autobiography of MLK and The Radical MLK.

In this episode, Christopher Caldwell joins the podcast to talk about his article, “The Fateful Nineties” from October 2023. They evaluate the decade's impact on politics and culture today.

Jeremy Carl: Yale, Claremont, Trump White House, Montana. Our guy in every sense of the phrase, Carl is one of those fortunate few who makes a living making good points. His incisive Twitter takes and threads (great one on Dominique Venner) mark the tip of the iceberg of a wide body of work in the vein of Christopher Caldwell and Christopher Rufo. He focuses on the intersection of culture/identity and law/policy—check out his work in American Mind and American Greatness—and is rapidly becoming the go-to guy on anti-white racism, a designation that, for reasons we discuss, makes us both uncomfortable. We talk about the history of race law and policy, whether the United States is a “white country,” and why the left doesn't want to call wokeness a religion.Keep an eye out for his upcoming book on the topic from Regnery, once called “It's Ok to Be White,” but now sadly renamed something less perfect.

This week: Christopher Caldwell writes The Spectator's cover piece on Italy's new wave of migrants. This is in light of the situation in Lampedusa which he argues could upend European politics. Chris joins the podcast alongside Amy Kazmin, Rome correspondent at the Financial Times, to debate Europe's escalating migrant crisis. (01:23) Also this week: In his column, Matthew Parris writes about Australia's Voice vote, a yes/no referendum being held on whether to establish a new body which will advise parliament on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. It is a source of real controversy in the country, and Alexander Downer – former Australian minister for foreign affairs and leader of the Liberal Party between 1994 and 1995 – joins Matthew to discuss. (16:07) And finally: why do some Churches rise and others fall?  In the magazine, journalist Dan Hitchens writes a tale of two churches by comparing the fastest growing – Elim Pentecostal church – and the fastest shrinking church in the UK – United Reformed church. He is joined by Revd Marcus Walker, Rector of the Priory Church of St Bartholomew the Great, London. (31:29) Hosted by William Moore.  Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

En este episodio de #PodcastLaTrinchera regresa  el Lcdo. José Javier Lamas para una sesión de nerdeo jurídico y análisis profundo sobre cuatro decisiones controvertidas del Tribunal Supremo de los Estados Unidos publicadas el 29 y 30 de junio de 2023 y listadas abajo. Consideradas en conjunto, las decisiones pueden representar un revolución jurídica en lo que ha sido el ordenamiento federal desde la época de los 1960.- 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis donde se decide que una diseñadora de páginas web para bodas tiene el derecho, bajo la Primera Enmienda de la Constitución, de negarse a crear páginas web para bodas de parejas del mismo sexo por estar en desacuerdo con las mismas y el estado de Colorado no puede sancionar a la diseñadora bajo la ley estatal prohibiendo discrimen por orientación sexual. - Groff v. Postmaster General donde se decide que bajo el Título VII del “Civil Rights Act of 1964”, un patrono que rechace proveer un acomodo razonable por las prácticas religiosas de un empleado tiene el peso de la prueba para demostrar que el acomodo fue rechazado porque resultaría en un incremento sustancial de costos en conexión con la conducta empresarial particular del patrono.- Student for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President & Fellows of Harvard University donde se decide que políticas de acción afirmativa raciales en la admisión de estudiante universitarios están prohibidas bajo la Cláusula de Igual Protección de las Leyes de la Decimocuarta Enmienda de la Constitución. - Biden v. Nebraska donde se decide que el Secretario de Educación no tenía autoridad legal para condonar en el 2022 un total de $430 mil millones de préstamos estudiantiles bajo el “HEROES Act of 2003” en conexión con la pandemia COVID-19 cuando la misma estaba próxima a concluirse y el Congreso nunca le delegó tal poder al Presidente o el Secretario.El Lcdo. Lamas es un litigante con experiencia y pericia en litigios complejos y temas de seguro y derecho civil. Es miembro de las directivas de varios cuerpos del Colegio de Abogados de Puerto Rico y activista en el Movimiento Victoria Ciudadana. Sobrino y Lamas componen el Panel de Guayaberas en el programa Sin Tapujos con Jonathan Lebrón-Ayala todos los viernes (más o menos) a las 7:30am por WIAC 740AM.Para contactar a Christian Sobrino y #PodcastLaTrinchera, nada mejor que mediante las siguientes plataformas:Facebook: @PodcastLaTrincheraTwitter: @zobrinovichInstagram: zobrinovichThreads: @zobrinovich"Los cambios de los años de la década del 1960, con los derechos civiles como su enfoque, no eran simplemente un gran elemento nuevo en la Constitución. Sino que constituían una constitución rival contra la cuál la constitución original era frecuentemente incompatible [...] Mucho de lo que hemos llamado polarización o falta de civismo en años recientes es algo mucho más grave - es una falta de consenso sobre cuál de las dos constituciones prevalecerá..." - Christopher Caldwell

In the highly anticipated Episode 1 of Season 2 of Conversations on Climate, Christopher Caldwell, CEO, Entrepreneur, and host of the show, sits down with François Ortalo-Magné. Together, they discuss the latest insights and trends in business sustainability, how companies can thrive in a world increasingly concerned about the environment, and, of course the future of London Business School. There's only one person to talk to about the future of LBS: the Dean himself. Since the appointment of François Ortalo-Magné in 2017, he has guided the school through the pandemic, Black Lives Matter, and the explosion of ESG across the business world. Today he is fully focussed on driving LBS into the future with the Forever Forward campaign, raising £200m to transform the school into a 21st-century powerhouse of research, innovation, diversity and world-beating education.  This conversation turns into a one-hour masterclass in leadership, impact, and the art of balancing tradition with transformation. It's a must listen for any business leader. How can the school maximise this positive impact – and just what is ‘impact squared'?  What roles do its research, teaching programmes, and alumni play in shaping the landscape of tomorrow?  And how should this august institution hold true to its traditions of academic freedom, rigour and excellence, whilst adapting to a rapidly-changing world? '... I tell our students, don't come if you're not curious and open to be inspired to a different perspective on your self in the world...' '...the message of the moment is: ask yourself as you go on with the rest of your life, whom do you serve?'

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: President Joe Biden is set to deliver his State of the Union address tonight and is fully expected to tout his economic policies, specifically the recent Department of Labor report indicating the creation of 500,000 jobs. However, as Dr. E.J. Antoni notes in his most recent Fox Business article, “once you account for employment rates, the labor market still has not recovered to pre-pandemic levels. The labor force participation rate and employment-to-population ratio have both remained stubbornly low, resulting in about 2.6 million fewer people working today, compared to pre-pandemic rates.” You can read Dr. Antoni's article at: https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/monthly-jobs-report-still-reliable-last-domino-fall On Tuesday, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued new guidance for service industry employees reporting tip money—which will include employers monitoring the annual tip revenue of its servers. Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) introduced H.R. 185—a bill that would eliminate the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) COVID-19 vaccine mandate for international travelers to the United States. Massie notes that “the rest of the world” has dropped the mandate. In an opinion editorial featured in the New York Times, Christopher Caldwell argues that the war between Russia and Ukraine has devolved into “a World War I-style battle of attrition.”

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (02/07/2023): 3:05pm- President Joe Biden is set to deliver his State of the Union address tonight and is fully expected to tout his economic policies, specifically the recent Department of Labor report indicating the creation of 500,000 jobs. However, as Dr. E.J. Antoni notes in his most recent Fox Business article, “once you account for employment rates, the labor market still has not recovered to pre-pandemic levels. The labor force participation rate and employment-to-population ratio have both remained stubbornly low, resulting in about 2.6 million fewer people working today, compared to pre-pandemic rates.” You can read Dr. Antoni's article at: https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/monthly-jobs-report-still-reliable-last-domino-fall 3:30pm- On Tuesday, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued new guidance for service industry employees reporting tip money—which will include employers monitoring the annual tip revenue of its servers.  3:45pm- Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) introduced H.R. 185—a bill that would eliminate the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) COVID-19 vaccine mandate for international travelers to the United States. Massie notes that “the rest of the world” has dropped the mandate.  3:55- In an opinion editorial featured in the New York Times, Christopher Caldwell argues that the war between Russia and Ukraine has devolved into “a World War I-style battle of attrition.” 4:05pm- Disney has removed an episode of The Simpsons—“One Angry Lisa” which aired in October 2022—from its streaming service, Disney+, due to a joke about forced labor in China. Meanwhile, Disney recently released an episode of The Proud Family” where characters explain that America was built on slavery. So, isn't it hypocritical to shield the Chinese Communist Party from criticisms over its active embrace of slavery? In 2020, Disney filmed Mulan in China's Xinjiang province where Uighur Muslims are forced to work in internment camps.  4:25pm- Yesterday, Rich played audio of Mama Zeoli witnessing the Chinese spy balloon being shot out of the sky! Due to popular demand, we have decided to play it again...  4:40pm- President Joe Biden is expected to use his State of the Union platform to tout the U.S. economy—but purchasing power has been drastically harmed due to out-of-control inflation, which was exacerbated by spending bills signed into law by Biden. Since Biden became President, prices have risen by 14% and family purchasing power has decreased by an estimated $7,400.  4:45pm- While appearing on The View, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was asked why, according to polling, fewer people want Joe Biden to be president in 2024 than Donald Trump. 4:50pm- On Monday night, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) delivered a preemptive critique of President Joe Biden's State of the Union Address. McCarthy addressed the national deficit—explaining that, if nothing changes, “in the next 10 years we will spend over $8 trillion just on interest.” 5:00pm- Dr. Wilfred Reilly—Professor of Political Science at Kentucky State University & Author of “Taboo: 10 Facts You Can't Talk About”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Disney's cartoon series, “The Proud Family”, explaining to children that America was built on slavery and that the country was founded on white supremacy. Citing economic date, Dr. Reilly refutes the narrative that the south "built" America and explains that the false narrative mirrors theories espoused by southern confederates prior to the Civil War. So, why is Disney embracing this historically inaccurate theory in 2023—and pushing it on children? 5:35pm- According to a report from Daniel Chaitin of The Daily Wire, investigators are “zeroing in” on a Joe Biden aide who may have links to Hunter Biden and classified documents that were ultimately sent to the president's University of Pennsylvania office.  5:50pm- Movie Mystery Clip! + Zeoli teases the 6pm hour with a hilarious proclamation… 6:05pm- A piece featured in The New York Times documents Kamala Harris' numerous struggles as Vice President. The authors write, “[e]ven some Democrats whom her own advisers referred reporters to for supportive quotes confided privately that they had lost hope in her.” Could Harris be booted from Biden's ticket in 2024?  6:35pm- Kamala Harris Montage: all the goofy, nonsensical things she has said since becoming Vice President of the United States. 6:50pm- Rich has too much show material, but not enough time to get to it all...

Claremont Senior Fellow Christopher Caldwell joins Spencer to discuss Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine and America's involvement in it. Caldwell's brief outline of Ukraine's history with Russia leads them to a broader discussion of why Ukraine became the flash point for Russia's ire, and how Americans are inclined to narrativize the war. As the conflict rages on in new and ill-defined ways, what position are everyday Americans left in?

Chris — an old friend and, in my view, one of the sharpest right-of-center writers in journalism — returns to the Dishcast. A senior fellow at the Claremont Institute and contributing editor to the Claremont Review of Books, his latest book, The Age of Entitlement, is a constitutional narrative of the last half-century that is indispensable — especially for liberals — in understanding the roots of our polarization. We discussed the book last year. This time on the pod, Chris has just returned from Europe and discusses the rapidly shifting politics there.For two clips of our convo — on how one-child families could be the downfall of Putin's war, and how Biden is co-opting Trump on border policy and China — pop over to our YouTube page. Other topics: Meloni and the US media meltdown, Truss, Remainers vs. Leavers, Boris, the energy crisis, possible off-ramps for the war, Russian dissenters, and the waning of American exceptionalism when it comes to religion.

Charlie sits down with country music phenom, Coffey Anderson, a proud American who sings about the country he loves, its warriors, its people, and why it's still worth fighting for. Complete with a few songs LIVE and in studio, Coffey explains where the inspiration for his music comes from and why he will make no apology for defending the Stars and Stripes, regardless of the warnings from woke Nashville record labels demanding he conform. Coffey and Charlie also do a live taste test of Charlie's hot sauce, "Kirk's" (and Coffey, a Texas native, has some pretty strong opinions about hot sauce).  Next up, Charlie welcomes TPUSA Contributor Morgan Zegers, and host of "Freedom Papers from TPUSA" and The Morgan Zegers Show, to to discuss one of Charlie's favorite books, Christopher Caldwell's "Age of Entitlement" for a deep dive into the radical and "transformative" nature of the Civil Rights movements of the 1960s. Morgan reflects on what she learned reading this consequential treatise and why it's critical for understanding the conservative movement over the last 30 or 40 years. Did the well-intentioned reforms of the 1960s undermine the brilliance of the Constitution, or did it complete it? Morgan and Charlie reflect on the one book all of you need to read.  Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/support See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

May is chock-full of primary elections, and they are starting to provide a picture of how deep the G.O.P. is entrenched in Trumpism. J.D. Vance, the 37-year-old venture capitalist and author of the acclaimed memoir “Hillbilly Elegy,” won the Republican Senate primary in Ohio — with the endorsement of Donald Trump. The rise of Vance paints a telling portrait of how the G.O.P. is evolving in its appeal to its conservative base. Vance eagerly sought Trump's endorsement and praise. Does it mean that the party is becoming a “populism of tribal loyalty,” as suggested by one of today's guests?Today on “The Argument,” host Jane Coaston wants to know what this month's Republican primary elections can actually tell us about the future of the G.O.P. and if it signals more Trump in 2024. She is joined two conservative writers, David French and Christopher Caldwell.French is a senior editor of “The Dispatch” and a contributing writer at The Atlantic. Caldwell is a contributing writer for New York Times Opinion. “I don't think anyone disputes that there's a wide open lane for populist incitement,” French says. “I think the issue with J.D. Vance and the issue with the Republican Party in general is this move that says, we're going to indulge it. We're going to stoke it.”Mentioned in this episode:“The Decline of Ohio and the Rise of J.D.
