No Milo......he is not the voice of conservatism
Plus, he has no filters, and has a filthy mouth
Milo is cancer. Embracing him for “attacking liberals” is like growing a giant malignant tumor because the smell of that makes your enemies vomit.
I certainly agree he is not for every taste. But if he can get an edgy channel up and running for the young people, that's who will listen to him. After university indoctrination, even his pottymouth will be a relief.
Ailes and others can address the over-40 audience.
He fits the tone to his audience, and yes, he’s the voice of conservatism - at least the kind that works.
Many have trouble with the fact that he’s gay and not ashamed of it.
People listen because he’s gay, and Catholic, and Jewish.
I’ve listened to his work extensively, and there was one podcast from No Jumpers that was pretty much useless.
One podcast out of a very great many.
One of the metaphors he likes to use is ‘cuckhold’. It’s Shakespearean, actually, and it is when a husband stands by and watches his wife being violated by an outside force, usually a man.
Then he says, “Is that not what congressional republicans have done to us over the last 25 years?”
Hard to argue with that, given Ryan is about to fully fund abortion, but not the border wall.
You may not like the vulgarity or coarseness of the metaphor, but it is precisely accurate in its description of the reality we live in as conservatives.
Give the man a chance. Cal Thomas won’t be bringing in the crowds, I can assure you.
