We got to talk about Nick Fente who you
00:00:01
just had on your podcast, Tucker. Why is
00:00:04
he resonating at this moment in time?
00:00:08
Well, first of all, Fuentes is saying a
00:00:09
lot of true things. That's why he's
00:00:11
popular. He's funny. Uh he's smart.
00:00:13
He's a good broadcaster. Yeah,
00:00:15
he's a great broadcaster, but Fuentes on
00:00:18
some macro level is troubling because he
00:00:23
his platform is an expression of
00:00:25
something that has kind of taken over
00:00:26
all political discourse, which is
00:00:27
identity politics, tribalism. Why is he
00:00:30
popular? Because he says that. Um, but I
00:00:32
would say more broadly because he's
00:00:34
defiant. There's a kind of up yours,
00:00:36
buddy. I can't say that. Okay, watch
00:00:38
this. I will. He's hilarious. Um, he
00:00:42
seems steadfast and strong. I I don't
00:00:45
think he is. He's not even married. So,
00:00:46
like, if you're afraid of girls, I think
00:00:49
you're a wuss. That's my personal view.
00:00:52
But there is a But in his defiance,
00:00:54
people see something really appealing.
00:00:56
Why wouldn't they? You know, you know,
00:00:58
these are kids who've grown up in a
00:00:59
world of hectoring and telling them
00:01:01
they're bad because of how they were
00:01:02
born. And Nick Fuentes is just raising
00:01:04
the middle finger to the people saying
00:01:06
that and saying up yours. And who
00:01:08
wouldn't love that? Of course people
00:01:09
love that.
