Show notes

Charles C. W. Cooke, senior writer at National Review and host of The Charles C. W. Cooke Podcast, joined The Guy Benson Show to react to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker's aggressive remarks about Republicans. Cooke explained why this kind of rhetoric undermines any effort to seriously counter Trump's political dominance from the Democrats. Benson and Cooke also discussed new polling showing Trump slipping on economic approval nearly 100 days into his second term, and the Democrats' tendency to elevate deeply flawed figures as heroes of their movement. Cooke also discussed his skepticism toward Trump's proposed tax overhaul, which would eliminate all income taxes for those earning under $200k, funded entirely by tariffs.
