I’m hoping he’s real. Don’t have a lot of confidence, but still holding out hope.

I didn't know much about PBD but saw a few ramblings about him recently. Is he MAGA?

I don't know how long he's been MAGA, but he has learned to focus his efforts on pro-MAGA content (like Tim Pool, Jimmy Dore, etc.).

I would say he is mostly MAGA, but he really just loves anti-establishment people. He had RFK, Jr. on, Jimmy Dore, Greenwald, even deranged Cenk Uygur. He also had Chris Cuomo on twice and those were good interviews (I think PBD likes old-school liberals and the Cuomo family obviously has a lot of history). SDV follows him closer than me, he can probably add more.

I bet NY is really glad a minority owner of their most beloved franchise is based.

Hes pro Capitalism

He loved Ron and moved to FL because of him. He likes Trump but criticzes him all the time

Ron blew him off mutiple times till the one show where he offered him the Feragamos. Desantis looked like a fool

His podcast is one of the best. It was weird he said "wouldbt it be crazy if someone like Jaime Dimon came out and said postielve stuff avout Trump"

Then a few days later Dimon said what he said which was wild

Hes behind a movement of wealthy ppl waking up imo

Podcast is one of the best

You are confusing MAGA with normal common sense. Tim Pool and Jimmy Dore are not necessarily MAGA. They are just not nuts. They believe a secure border with LEGAL immigration is good. They believe one way free trade where American workers get fricked is bad. They believe interventionist war policy is bad. I don't agree with Jimmy Dore on healthcare policy though.

It's comedy. Vivek is secure enough in his ego to accept that. Some people are too thinned skinned for comedy.

Clearly his would be "their" when discussing them, but it's the same thing.

They know this content makes them money, so they've quadrupled down on it. There is a cottage industry of online pro-MAGA content. Their personal opinions are irrelevant.

They are both big on non-interventionism and Trump is a noninterventionist.

He's also done some great content with Michael Franzese and Sammy the Bull. That's what got me hooked.
