IMO he does have some valid points, but when he starts to sell things, he comes off like a softer version of Alex Jones.

He's a logical Michael Savage. I think he's the best in the biz for conservatives right now.

Indeed. No love for Dana Loesch? Think she's funnier and has a good approach for debating leftist viewpoints.

No, I understand what he's saying. He's just incomplete with his analysis. He argues one portion of a larger idea and passes it off as complete.

I can't listen to people like Beck or Levin. Too little substance


Yeah, Levin talking conlaw and history is all sizzle and no steak.

On Glen Beck, I like some of the people that work for him. I just started listening to Buck Sexton and find him pretty insightful on foreign affairs.

Beck's staff does really deep research on things and while I abhor his theatrics, his time on Fox was probably the most productive of his career (how many other pundits have had the Obama administration fire 2 employees because of exposes on them). Since he's gone off on his own he's barely made a blip (although I am willing to bet he's making Walter White levels of cash).

I did think the red telephone bit on his FNC set was pretty funny though.

His website is top 50 and his TV network is getting picked up despite his polarizing name. He's making more than a blip, but not mainstream yet.

I haven't paid much attention to him lately, but even then, really haven't been all too fond of some his views.

He's making money, that's what he's doing. He hasn't had a real effect on the administration (Van Jones, et al) since he left Fox.
