I like Shapiro, he always has some useful argument with which to spear the left... and it’s never based on some late night tinfoil conspiracy theory... so if you use it, you won’t regret it later.

Ben is not a Never Trumper. He is more of a Sometimes Trumper. I listen to his podcasts. He has some good stuff. Some things I discount.

Ben is more of a Michael Medved wannabe. Not quite a RINO, but too critical of Trump because he doesn't fit the model of a traditional conservative. He was very much a never Trumper, as was Medved during the primaries. Funny how their tune changed when Trump was actually elected.

He’s squarely in the middle of the Ben Shapiro Is The Smartest Of Them All circle jerk and won’t last long in this slot.

Ben is not a Never Trumper.

I bet that works on people with short memories.

"In my opinion, Steve Bannon is a bully, and has sold out Andrew’s mission in order to back another bully, Donald Trump; he has shaped the company into Trump’s personal Pravda, to the extent that he abandoned and undercut his own reporter, Breitbart News’ Michelle Fields, in order to protect Trump’s bully campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, who allegedly assaulted Michelle."

Hunh. I wonder what Michelle Fields groupie said that.

Shapiro only cares about protecting Israel’s borders, and has said many times he doesn’t care about America’s demographics.

He’s a Neocon shill for cheap labor and the warhawks.

do you play his podcasts at half-speed to understand what he is saying?

No kidding! Ben needs a speech coach to help him not sound so hyper and robotic. While I have my disagreements with Ben, he is interesting, although sometimes unlistenable due to his staccato delivery.

This Never Trumper is getting a slot because he is a Never Trumper and besides he tried to ruin Corey Lowendowski’s life with that goofy Michelle Fields accusation. Lost all credibility with me.

Just like Hugh Hewitt and Mark Levin, who started out as NeverTrumpers, you face a moment of having to choose between embracing Trump or losing your audience and your show.

I like Andrew Klavan - he actually had a real job before getting into political punditry, and it shows with his extended depth and insight.

I tried to like Ben Shapiro, as I don't want to only follow 100% no-matter-what pro-Trump commentary - Trump is human like everyone else, and stands to benefit from fair criticism. However:

That’s true.

For the longest time the thin skinned crybaby would repeat the first half of his show.

Tune in at the beginning of the show, and you’ll hear it all again word for word at the bottom of the second hour.

“I am a big fan of Shapiro’s.”

You either don’t know anything about Shapiro or you just are not that intelligent.

Shapiro is a Romney bot. He slobbers over Romney and thought he would win. Some of Shapiro’s hatred of Trump and conservatives as well as his dishonesty sounds exactly like Romney.

Here is an example of little Ben slobbering over Romney.

Yep. I’ll never listen to Pajama Boy.
Should have given that spot to Bongono,
if he wanted it.

He’s a proud protégé of Ben Wattenberg.

“Ben is not a Never Trumper.”

He is in spades. He’s a gaslighter-prevaricator. A POS. A trotskyite that has infiltrated the republican party. A Bill Kristol clone.

Or I just disagree with you. Simple as that. I've been around these part a long time, its happened before.

Fox is giving Shapiro an hour-long show, Sunday, 8 PM Eastern. Ick.

http://insider.foxnews.com/2018/09/21/ben-shapiro-discusses-new-fox-news-show-ben-shapiro-election-special

“Ahead of Sunday night’s premiere episode of “The Ben Shapiro Election Special” at 8:00pm ET, Fox News Insider talked with Shapiro about the stakes on Election Day, the big issues he’ll cover on the show and what viewers can expect to see.

During the hour-long program, Shapiro will speak with election experts and take on pundits from both sides of the aisle, promising to call it like he sees it in his signature style.

“I coined the ‘good Trump, bad Trump’ model. When President Trump does something good, he’s worthy of our praise. When he does something bad, he’s not,” Shapiro said, adding he’s “happy to tick off” people from either side with his arguments.”

Shapiro has the most annoying, nasal, rapid fire staccato voice

He speaks too fast for me to understand him. As I result, I never watch or listen to him.

“Ben is not a Never Trumper.”


Shapiro never misses an occasion to trash President Trump, see eg. Charlotteville, Trump’s tariff... none of which is justified. And he was much more venomous before Trump was elected.
Looks like he deserves 100% the qualifier “never trumper”.

And his nasal voice is quite something! You hear him and you just want to slap him on the face to make him shut it up.
