The Presidential Election, Failing Higher Education and The End of Everything | Victor Davis Hanson

Professor Hanson joins John to discuss his new book The End of Everything, as well as the considerable unrest across America in the lead up to the 2024 Presidential election. They unpack the recent turmoil in higher education, and its aggravation due to the unchecked left-wing ideology of those in leadership. They also discuss the unassailable appeal of Trump among Republican voters due to his outsider status and combative persona.
They finish on a discussion of his new book The End of Everything, examining various historical parallels with our time, and the importance of recognizing patterns of decline to prevent another civilisational catastrophe.
In addition to writing hundreds of articles, book reviews and newspaper editorials, Hanson is also the author of twenty-four books and hosts a regular podcast series, 'The Victor Davis Hanson Show'. Hanson was awarded the National Humanities Medal in 2007 by President George W. Bush, and was a presidential appointee in 2007-08 on the American Battle Monuments Commission. His book, The Dying Citizen, was published in October 2021. And his latest book, released on May the 7th this year, The End of Everything, How Wars Descend Into Annihilation.

And, that's basically a 'farm or garden' oriented chain store outlet in Mid Florida and not a typical 'gun store' that specializes in firearms and ammunition products.

Non-Americans are always surprised to find that the USA is NOT a "Nation" the way they assume. Each State has always been unique, with its own culture and law systems. WE LIKE IT THAT WAY. Each of our States has its own Constitution, its own Flag and its own Name. When I was in school, we were taught about the individual States and their main exports, their main industry, their culture -and even sometimes their local languages. And that was only 45 years ago. How things have changed. The more recent movement (last 30 years) of trying to make us all the same, with the same big box stores on every corner, is being rejected now. It was a very effective PR campaign--many young Americans have no idea that each state is a Free, seperate State. But hopefully the tide is turning and we will return to our original American system of Free, seperate States "federated" with a federal government system which is ONLY charged with defense of the federation, and mediation of interstate commerce.

Thank you so much Dr. Hanson for illuminating us in the current confusing situation!

My Drill Sergeant, nicknamed Brute, saw me returning from a sick call. I was strolling along. He took exception with that. He yelled at me and called me a bad name. It hurt my feelings and I scowled at him. He picked up a 12 pound river rock and shotput it at me from about 40 - 50 feet away. It took one bounce and hit me in the thigh. He said, “the next one gonna hurt, Trainee.” I said, “yes Drill Sergeant,” and began jogging toward the barracks. I wish all American 18 year old “boys” could have great memories like that. 🇺🇸😆

Isreal will never be wiped out, but is going to be further isolated until she finally is left standing alone, then God delivers her in a miraculous display of power against her enemies. The stage is just being set for the final fulfillment of what the Bible has declared will happen, prophesied thousands of years ago.

My view is that Trump has the "intangibles" you look for in sports that none of the other candidates have. If he could just be allowed to do his job and we had real elections, some very positive things might happen over the next 10 years.

How can you live a life through the second half of the 20th century, get to 70 and still be a communist? It takes a special kind of blinkered loyalty
