YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWelcome to our (sort of) new series, The Weekly Assignment! You’ve gotten used to seeing Sam and I go through headlines and the week ahead of Lincoln Square, but now we’re looking to include more of you, our Lincoln Loyal community. And we’ll also have some friends from Lincoln Square, the Lincoln Project, and other publications stop by!
Join us every Monday for The Weekly Assignment! And please support our pro-democracy journalism by becoming a free or paid subscriber.
You’ve heard Rick Wilson and Andrew Wilson discuss on Behind the Numbers how Trump has really slipped with younger men, who were an unexpectedly strong demographic for him during the 2024 election. So I wanted to talk to Sam about Trump losing ground with influential podcast bros like Joe Rogan, Theo Von, Adin Ross, and Andrew Schulz. They saw Trump as a middle finger to authority and helped him rebrand himself as being cool again even though he’s 80. But now they’re grappling with the fact that when you give Trump limitless power and he starts invading cities and having ICE brutally rounding up children, his antics are not funny anymore.
Look, no one is counting on Joe Rogan to save us. We have to save ourselves. But having more media figures on the right criticize Trump isn’t a bad thing.
This week, our guest was Brian Daitzman, the founder of The Intellectualist, who came on to chat about the breaking news and historical pieces he features in his publication (and sometimes on Lincoln Square). Read his latest on a judge blocking National Guard troop deployments here.
