Ep 242 | Libertarian Populism Is Leading the Presidential Field | Guest: Jack Hunter

Following the first Republican presidential debate, it is striking how many libertarian ideas are being aired on major platforms and how popular they appear to be with voters. For example, Vivek Ramaswamy has surged into second place in the Republican polls by opposing war and promising to eliminate multiple federal agencies. Meanwhile, on the Democrat side, RFK Jr. is getting traction with his opposition to COVID lockdowns and vaccine mandates. Matt Kibbe is joined by Jack Hunter, co-founder of Based Politics, to discuss these developments and other current events, including Oliver Anthony’s hit song, “Rich Men North of Richmond,” the return of mask mandates, and of course, wrestling.
