Big Tent, Bigger Problems

from The Rob Carson Show · host Newsmax Podcasts

-The Democratic “big tent” becomes Rob’s favorite political horror movie. He argues party leaders welcome increasingly radical DSA activists only to discover they’ve invited people who want to tear down the institutions holding up the tent. In Rob’s version, the newcomers aren’t houseguests—they’re vampires who immediately start redecorating. -NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck joins Rob to dissect the Democrats’ “big tent,” Francesca Hong’s defeat, Abdul El-Sayed and media coverage of progressive candidates. Houck also argues that journalists aren’t giving enough attention to government fraud and corruption. The conversation eventually reaches Hasan Piker’s expensive home, proving no discussion of socialism is complete until somebody asks who paid for the Hollywood real estate.
