I must admit, this is a different side of him that I'm not used to seeing and I like it! I first saw his interview of Dan Crenshaw and now seeing this interview, it makes me reconsider my opinion on Trevor. I felt like usually his political humor is very low hanging fruit and playing up to his left of center base. I like how he is actually having a real conversation and general interest in what his guests have to say and not just dismissing or bashing the person on general party affiliation especially those who differ from his political leaning. That happens all to often these days and only creates echo chambers that don't help any side. I will definitely take an interest in more discussions like this from Trevor and give him another chance.

[@SSG1N571]

[@Greg__K]

What’s refreshing? He said nothing worthwhile. He wrote a book and called out obvious lies. He’s just trying to have a different angle than his opponents to stand out. He didn’t mention any policies. Politics are becoming way too much about individuals rather than actual policies. When it should be about trying to help as many people as possible.

Also he took some Biden paraphrases out of context, Biden's speech was not talking about bringing the politicians together. It was directed to address the many problems in our country, and for us to do it together. That was a fantastic speech IMO, and truly inspirational. Also Biden was clear on what he wanted to do after the primary and they were liberal policies. Americans minds are clouded with too much nonsense to focus on this.

[@casper8464]

nothing has changed. Trump will get nominated, unless he drops dead, or becomes ill. The media still make a sensation about the morality of Trump, while that's exactly the thing his fans love. Chris doesn't seem to get this, or he's just like Trump, or Guliani, Cohen. They can sell books, interviews by pitting themselves against Trump. But this changes nothing about the frustration seen in his base. On the contrary. Like the mugshot and suits, it only fuels their fire. You need someone that inspires, coming from that premise, but all I see is people bashing Trump - the strategy we've seen for nearly a decade now. ' Trump did this, or that!!' 'Get it on film!! Talk about it!' Only makes him bigger. Christie is finding out at the moment, I suppose.

I never been a fan of Governor Chris Christie, but this time I have to give him some respect as a human being. He is 100% correct when he points of the flaws of the Republican Party of today.
