It’s truly terrifying the amount of people on the left who hate Trump so much that they’re willing to accept/forgive anyone who is TO THE RIGHT of him simply for breaking with MAGA.
I know ex-MAGAs who used to love Trump & now hate him. And I promise you, it’s not for the reasons you want.

Everyone stop acting weird and shocked about MTG. She has been systematically distancing herself from the current GOP for months and months. She has a plan reform herself under a new image ON THE RIGHT that’s not part of a sinking ship.
She’s not suddenly changing her tune! SHE’S AN OPPORTUNIST

This is not the worst book we've ever read but it is the meanest episode we've ever done.
Episode 46: Sapiens
It's an ambitious goal to write the entire history of humanity in just 400 pages. It's even more ambitious to do it without reading any research.
