A Libertarian’s Journey to Trump

How to create a Trump voter.

J.W. Verret, an associate professor at George Mason University, joins Jamie to discuss his recent Wall Street Journal op-ed—entitled “From ‘Never Trump’ to ‘Encore’“—which details how he went from endorsing Joe Biden in 2020, supporting Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in this year’s GOP primary, and ultimately backing Donald Trump’s reelection.

The Agenda:
—DEI in the military
—Anti-cryptocurrency on the left
—Inflation and a ballooning national debt
—The crisis at the border
—Trump’s threat to our institutions
