James Everett I really doubt it, because his vice president is actually a way better candidate for the right, it would be really dumb to trade down in their case.
And he's crusading across the stars toward our promised land. Lord Marshal Donald J Trump alone has made a pilgrimage to the gates of the UnderVerse...
Same thing they said about Obama.... "Give the man a chance to lead!". To some he was successful, to others he was horrible. To me, I see people from the gutter still in the same spot they were at 8 years ago.
That's literally what ben has been saying. I listen to his show and he has always said he should continue bashing the media but his past of flip flopping worries him. He says he fears the right media (Breitbart) and politicians will protect him like the left did for the Democrats. They should be honest don't lie for Trump.
K-Tech They wanted to be able to afford pot, without working. Why not do a Rob Van Dam and be put through tables every week and earn the money to smoke it.
Smokey McJoint but it is...it's the daily wire TH-cam channel...it says daily wire on his laptop and behind him, and anyone can see this...pretty sure he's aware of his own videos
Hopefully he’ll be back. Israel and Ukraine are burning, our border is worthless, and our economy is stagnant. Oh yeah, and our new president is a zombie lol
Kinda scary how many "TRUMP NO MATTER WHAT" people there are. Ben is a good guy and a lot of people here are bitching at him simply for not being crazy for Trump. Sorry, I don't like him either although I voted for him because I couldn't stand idly by and watch Hillary become president. Ben has a lot of valid points concerning Trump but heres what it comes down to ya'll. I like Ben, am willing to give Trump the benefit of the doubt and hope he proves me and Ben wrong by being a great president. Plain and simple. Ben is a hell of a smart guy and deserves better than your shitty comments.
Anyone willing to risk Hillary Clinton becoming President is a straight piece of dog shit, you want the Constitution replaced? If yes, then fuck yourself
metalgrinch i dont think we will see another Republican in the white house after this unless we can preserve conservative values in our youth. hate to say it but these kids are brainwashed. lets change that democratic bs in the next 4 years.
Section8 millionaire People like Ben have turned very liberal members of minorities into conservatives. I am one of them. I'm 16 and I promise to you, we will not give up. We will win this fight against the radical left. I hope you have a good day.
Logic is not as sure or swift a path to truth as inspiration. Ben lacks inspiration. He's a prodigy, but not a genius. I would worry he proves to have feet of clay when put to the test. He would be a great advisor to someone with the right instincts and judgement, though.
"I was wrong..." "I was wrong..." "I was wrong..." I listen to Ben because he has the balls to be honest and intellectually honest about himself and his positions.
one of these: he secretly voted for Trump but unwilling to admit it (my boat) voted for Harambe (write in) voted for Johnson (possibly) pretended he even voted at all (didn't vote)
I love my precious metals from birch gold and my awesome healthy snacks and bedsheets that Benny reminds me to head over and get some every week. Love ya
David Belcher There has been currency since the days of bartering ended. Thousands of years there has been currency. Why would this just disappear? Even if great calamity hits us, eventually we will pick ourselves up,dust ourselves off and move on. I personally invest in bread,bullets and gold:)
yeah, except the fanboys, but I guess that's obvious :P Some of my leftist collegues started crying at work because Trump won :D and the leftist labor party is running scared Trump will force my country to start paying more of the percentage of NATO expenses and scared that there will be no confrontation with Putin now that Warmonger Leftist Hillary isn't elected >:)
Thomas More i actually believe that if you think trump is better than hillary there's a very good chance you have a low IQ. there's no contest, hillary is way better.
Ben, you just admitted that you've been wrong about Trump on just about everything. Why don't you give him the benefit of the doubt and start supporting him instead of trashing him?
He didn't trash him at all here. He merely stated some things that have been true about Trump but that he has been wrong about a lot of things concerning the election and Trump and hoped that Trump, as President, would be everything we hope he'll be and prove him (Ben) wrong again. I think Ben Shapiro really does want the best for the country and really does hope he's been wrong about Trump. I haven't agreed with everything Ben's ever said but for the most part he's on target. As for Trump, hey, he's been very presidential lately and I think this is what Ben's talking about as for as the candor of a Republican President.
Ben, your mostly right, but I am worried that Hillary would not face anywhere near as much scrutiny if she were elected. Everything that Trump says and does will be scrutinized by BOTH Republicans and Democrat citizens.
Andres Arellano He will come through a winner. Because that's what he is. Donald Trump became President, because that is his destiny. They used to call Ronald Reagan the Teflon president, because the criticism didn't stick to him. well you know, they've improved Teflon.
teflon president because he's actually toxic, and after a bit of use begins to degrade and seep into your food, slowly poisoning you. Talking about Reagan, not trump. Reagan did a lot of good but the war on drugs is soooooo retarded. Only reason it's good is because it woke me up early with it's terrible disguise.
That's a good thing, and you shouldn't be afraid of it. NO president, whether that be a Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Obama, or Trump, should be exempt from the scrutiny and criticisms from the American people. If you want to live in a country where it's citizens are not allowed to critique and criticize its leaders, then you want to live under the rule of a dictator. The first Ammendment is our most sacred right as citizens! Freedom of speech and free press! Without THAT, we cannot call ourself a free country. As Voltaire said, "I may not agree with what you say, but I will die for your right to say it."
i voted for Trump and i support him wholeheartedly. Having said that i completely agree with your sentiment. I pray Trump has the strength and character to lead with wisdom and to answer questions about that leadership openly and honestly. I want President Trump to succeed very much but more importantly i want him to remember he serves us and not the other way around.
The last thing we need is the GOP to support Trump unconditionally, we need people to stand for conservative principles in order to set this country on the right track again, and I don't think Trump is really a conservative.
I agree he isn't a conservative but I don't think that means he will fail to stand for the principles. The GOP has completely broken by infighting and they need to move past that. Support him where he is right. Don't support him where he is wrong but they better get stuff done and fast.
I like Ben Shapiro, he is a very intelligent man but I never understood him being against Trump. Especially when the only other choice is lying crooked Hillary.
King David Ben is the typical egotistical megalomaniac. He insults Trump for being REAL, not faking and lying, to kiss people's ass in order to get their vote. Any other person who runs for president has always had less to lose thanTrump. Trump had the cahonas to risk his life, his riches, his businesses to run for president, over anyone else...... BECAUSE he CARES about our country and wants to save us from losing our country! He never HAD to do this. He could have ignored politics and kept living his dream life, and let someone else take this abuse. HE CAN'T BE BOUGHT! HE IS FOR REAL, which is why he is MORE qualified for the job than anyone else. No politician EVER had the experience to run a country until they got elected! I voted for him because he is the only one running who ever had a success in running a business. I would give him the chance to try .
I agree 100% Cynthia. Very well put on your comment. I voted Trump as well. In my opinion the government is a very large business so who better to run it than the greatest business man in the world.God bless you and God bless the greatest country on the planet, the United States of America.
Ben has witnessed 20 years of poor presidents and is disillusioned and he sees Trump with all his flaws and expects the exact same thing. Trump will cut taxes and this will massively grow the economy just like what Reagan did and guess what people will love Trump for this and guess what Trump knows this as well. Ego is a great thing sometimes.
What would they debate about? The only thing they disagree on politically is the personality cult around Trump. Other than that they agree on basically everything... politically :P
Trump isn't a Conservative, he is a populist independent who ran on the Republican ticket because that was the only chance he had of winning. And by the way, I don't have a radio show, etc and I got the Trump win right and collected my money from the bookies. It was pretty obvious really, because Hilary was just a terrible candidate. You can call me for tips next time Ben, if you want.
Ade Falcon You say Trump couldn't win without the Republican nomination, but I say the Republicans wouldn't have won without Trump. The Kentucky state House has been Democrat for 95 years, but now it's Republican. Because of Trump. If Ben Shapiro had his way, it would still be Democrat.
That's exactly why Ben doesn't really like Trump. Because Ben is a TRUE conservative, down to the bone. I'm not saying that's a bad thing; I'm just saying that's who he is.
Sorry but I don't believe that to be the case. Just about every conservative that I personally know was not voting for trump but was voting against hillary.
+alphavortex1 agree with that. I think Ben is worried about a moderate republican party more than anything else. Hardcore conservatives are unelectable as president in my opinion.
No, he is honestly wishing/praying that Trump will prove his personal distrust wrong again because it will be good for the country. I understand his angst. How many times have the GOP failed to keep their promises. So, an honest question is, will Trump remain true to his promise and resolute or will he cave. That, to me, is an honest worry which is mine who, in this case, voted for him. Already in his acceptance speech he has praised Hillary for her contribution and service. What?! She used her position to milk millions, corrupted the DOJ and FBI, and put the country at risk. What is there to praise? All he should have said was that she put up a good fight and nothing else. That is why I am worried as Ben is.
gyjainga Trump just needs to hire me for the two first years with out retribution, I'll tell him the shit he doesn't want to hear. He can fire me after two years of honesty. He only has two years till mid term. Those two years are the only bets he can place that he'll know he'll get shit done.
How sure are you that you will keep true to your promise? Maybe, I should say that I doubt you will be strong enough to handle the unbelievable pressures that you will be exposed to. In short, you are making foolish declarations that suggest to me that you will turn up a wimp if it truly happens that he takes you on. You see, those in his shoes have studied the art of intimidation, solicitation, temptation, etc. What are your weaknesses XGC Scrappy? Compared to them you are a tyro. They will easily find out your weakness and exploit it. So, please, enough of brogadachio. If there is such a word. It doesn't really serve you well.
I kinda see Trump as having adapted along the way... Take a look at the primaries versus now. I have faith, he just was never a career politician. Minus the Alfred Smith dinner, I think he has hit back when he needed to, hell, even at that same dinner. He isn't the "bully". My child is in first grade, has gotten bullied all last year by one asshole kid with worthless parents. The teachers refused to do anything and offered up excuses about the other child's way of doing things and that my child being white, he owed it to minorities to be bullied and take it with a grain of salt. Well, I encouraged him and showed him how to defend himself. A week later, this kid kicked my child in the face while he was tying his shoes. My son punched this kid in his nose and put him on the ground. After a full year of bullying. My son is the one that ends up going to the office, now he is the one labeled the bully for FINALLY hitting back. Society needs to change. Period. The bully isn't the one that gets enough of bullying. Donald Trump was a joke to Hillary and it bit her hard. I hope he doesn't screw things up. I hope, if anything, he brings us back further from Obama's horrible, country destroying policies.
Also, Trump's sleazy comment to a sleazy guy in private feigns in comparison to the Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton supporters tearing down cities, rioting looking and shooting cops. No one talks about how offensive that shit is.
I think Trump is surrounding himself with decent people... it he works WITH them, good things can happen. This election was a Monster vs. a Mystery... now we elected the mystery. The people Trump put around him for the most part were OK with me.
Considering your string of wrong judgments, I think it's safe to assume your assumption about Trump being a bad person will also fail. You should take all of this as evidence that you need to re-examine your methods of data analysis; something in your mind is creating consistently wrong conclusions.
Ben while I like you, the problem with the conservative movement is we don't appeal to minorities. We need to target Minorities and tell them why our way is correct. Give them the ladder and let them climb. Minorities will become the majority in years to come. So we need to use Trumps victories in those areas an amplify them but stick to our values as well. For instance his trade policy. You disagree with it. But the problem is we can't have free trade unless BOTH parties have free trade. Our value must be applied equally. If they increase tariffs then we bring it to their lv and tell them "We are willing to have a free trade. But you need to do it WITH us."
Cody Townsend our government would have to stop pocketing the so much money and start putting it into low-income areas...good luck getting that to happen.
Specially when those same low-income areas tend to have a lot or riots + high crime rates. Nobody is going to take that investment risk... They burn down their own shops and complain about not having goods.
Ibo Fons Oh I know that. but instead of giving them free Food, and housing, why don't we make a car loan bill. One they can buy when they get a job. Which they can get with the car. Or just a cheep small busing place. And invest in businesses just outside the city. And slowey build in while they adapt? OR. Infrastructure. While it doesn't increase GPA, It would temperarliy give them jobs and stop crime. THEN we can invest.
Cody Townsend I respect your idea, and I sincerely agree with it. But frankly, I think that it would only work on a low/middle income area populated by working class families with average education. The reality of the low income areas that we're talking about here is that they're occupied by people with broken families and low education standards. Most of them can't hold a steady job for more than 2 months and many turn to crime as a way out. Plus, with all the race disparity that's going on, thinks get even harder. You want actual change, you need to change the culture and education first. Only then can you get things moving.
Ibo Fons Oh I agree there. But if we do that to other areas, Stop common core, and let the churches, communities etc try an influence culture then we can show them WITH proof it works. I never implied it ill happen in a year =P. But I can't live under liberal ruleforever and if we can't get them and show them WE are the true freedom people and non racists then we will loose when they become a majority.
I just watched today's video of yours and you mentioned that Joe Biden is technically not president elect due to no state certifying the election but you mentioned that Trump was president-elect multiple times in this video. Just looking for consistency in your comments.
I've got to say, I really respect Ben for being willing to humbly admit that he was wrong, and his willingness to hope that Trump will be a good president. That's what all of us should be doing right now, whether they voting for Trump or not.
Looks like he's been proving you wrong for almost 3 years. At least you were man enough to say what others never will. Others will hate on President Trump even when things are going great.
Ben, you are Wrong Again. Being someone who promoted you and your career to many conservatives when you were fresh out of college I was disappointed by your stubbornness on this matter. I have been confident that Trump was going to win since he announced his entry into the Race. Because I saw the Real Trump during the revival of NYC in the 1990's. During a real estate walk-thru of a property redevelopment in Manhattan I most remember how natural and comfortable Trump was with his workers I'm talking Concrete, electricians, laborers. He had all of them relaxed and loyal to his mission. He sometimes would grab a Hot Dog from the corner vendor and sit with everyone else. He could have catered in a special meal with his money. I think if you continue to take yourself too seriously you will continue to be wrong. I know you love hearing your voice and you enjoy the voices of your fans praising your moral compass. What you failed to recognize is that sometimes the stakes are so high that only a fool would dig in for principle at these moments. I love and appreciate the work you've done in such a short time for the conservatives in America & the World. Ben, I wish you would understand that when you are constantly under assault everywhere you go for reasons that defy logic, it can actually change a person no matter how hard you try to not let the damage show. Trump is under attack for his silver spoon, his skin color, his confidence and everything he holds dear. His defense was a shell of vocal promotion of himself since no one else will give him praise. I am confident saying this, he will go down in history as the President who saved our nation and the Greatest President to lead our country ever. I know those are big claims so please listen and help instead of hamper. Going forward you are going to see wins like never before. Trump will be the hardest, smartest and a most Loyal leader to his voters than you could ever imagine. Join in on the moment and don't over think it. Trump will need us all while he enters into the meat grinder.
Tony V. Hey man, that was nice! I've been laughing at angry leftists when I should be support long the president-elect more than ever, especially with all these hypocrites in the streets protesting democracy.
POTUS election is a combination of 50 states having their own elections. There is no SINGLE election, hence lumping all the votes in one bucket is merely your wet dreaming. Also the votes aren't even counted yet, and DJT will likely have the (irrelevant) majority in the end.
Well Ben I just saw your Vid on Biden being elected and yet you said "you're not president till you're president" oh so what's this, "President elect Trump". Ah I see typical 1 rule for Trump and another for Biden. Quit crying already
You're a poor judge of character. I actually believe the guy has a good heart he just lacks spiritual conviction. He's surrounded by a good party and good people and will probably do just fine.
I didn't know you knew Donald Trump ... Everyone that know him personally say that Trump is a good man (i.e. T.O. Mike Tyson Hershel Walker Lynn Patton Dana White Tom Brady Bill Belichick, etc... ) w/ the exception of you ..As someone that knows him personally, why do you say he's a bad man?
In the beginning Ben makes it clear that he got it wrong on about 10 issues. The biggest two for me is that Trump would not win the primaries and would not become president. And this is where Ben gambled and lost, big time.If Trump had lost, Ben would of been the man, he would have had thousands of more followers and everyone would have come to him for wisdom. He gambled his future success on Trump losing and now he is not part of the 33 million viewership that Breitbart enjoys.He is not part of the Trump team that is today guiding the most powerful man in the world. Ben vilified the man, just like the left,in fact a little worse than the left. I watched Ben closely in this Ep. 208 and what came over was a man desperate to salvage his reputation. You did what all the media did Ben. You followed and believed the polls. You were watered and fed by the media even if you deny this. I am an amateur at politics, not even well educated. I bought two of your books because at 55 I was concerned at what I was witnessing over the years and became a big fan of yours Yet as a South African now living in Britain and who voted for Brexit saw exactly what was happening and knew that Brexit was going to win. How? Because I spoke to ordinary people. The local shopkeeper asked me what was I voting for noting my South African accent and I said Brexit and he went silent and said, all my customers are voting for Brexit. So I started asking shop keepers like the hardware guy and he said the same, his customers were voting Brexit. It did not take a genius or a politically aware person to realise that the majority, who are ordinary people were not thinking the same as those voices coming from the Telly. When Brexit won i focused on USA election and started following Breitbart. What I noticed immediately was the comment section. that section which you hated so much because a couple of idiots were anti Semitic. While you were absorbed by this I was absorbed at what the vast majority of the comments were saying. I noted ordinary people talking the same language,. i noted exactly what I noticed in Britain and that was ordinary people were not thinking the same as what I was hearing on CNN and those other idiot channels. After 2 debates with Trump my daughter in law who writes for the British spectator asked me "do i think Trump will become president" and my immediate answer was absolutely, no doubt". she phoned me the same day that Trump won and asked how did I know. i told her because I am an ordinary person and we live in the real world. I was listening to the majority whereas her, a very savy political Journalist had been listening to media people, elitist who she though were intelligent. Even she was guilty, as you were, of living in a bubble. hope you have learnt your lesson ben, though i doubt it., because I see you still have followers and i have no doubt these followers also live in a little bubble who would not be able to name one friend who voted for Trump. I bet they know a lot more friends that voted for Hillary.
Ben what the fuck; "I didn't vote for Trump, I didn't want to see Hillary win though." Like, who the fuck did you expect to beat her? Some mysterious constitutional conservative that was going to rise from the ashes? Ted Cruz? Jeez...
Pray for Trump to have Godly wisdom, discernment. His surrounding cabinet are Godly people Carson, Pence. God will move in their hearts and minds. He is now a bigger target then ever and that is hard to imagine.
dude Trump has done a lot of shit conservatives have been dying to do. He's actually not that bad at being president. its the personal petty shit that gets him in trouble.
I know it's semantics, but Ben Shapiro just said one of the most liberal things I have ever heard anyone say... "I will criticize him when he doesn't deserve it.". My good friend Sterling taught me a word a very long time ago - "Phrasing!". Yes, you simpleton, I do know what he really meant, shut up.
We did what was right to stop Hillary. Mission accomplished. So the next thing to do is hold them all to account if they don't do what they say they will do.
I hate how he keeps labeling him a "reality tv star" . Trump was a successful businessman long before he was ever on reality tv. Ronald Reagan was a hollywood actor and then became governor and then president. So I dont understand why its so ridicilous to that a very successful businessman did reality tv and then ran for president.
+sheenhan1able His hate of Trump is overexagerated and its petty. He can analyze shit all he wants but he doesnt know what America wants and what is best for America.
Come on Ben, this country needs a rest from the neocon and progressive globalists. besides, what victories do conservatives have to show for themselves? We know Trump isn't a conservative, but he's a nationalist and we need this right now.
You didn't vote for Trump but says you thought he was not Conservative enough! You did back-stab all Conservatives by *not* voting for Trump. You are right about admitting your mistake...now admit you were wrong about Milo as well...
Merl Ball No oh Ben's white night I am referring to the fact that that Ben is an asshole to people sometimes, particularly to Trump supporters. Ben has made some rather colorful remarks to Milo in the past, Milo of course took it in stride. However eventually Ben got harsher and harsher. When they were scheduling an interview, during a busy time with Milo, Ben said that he was afraid to talk to him. Milo responded that he was busy and would talk to him anytime he could set it up. I have yet to see that interview. But here are a few of Ben tweets. "To be fair, your knees are pretty calloused by now" "I KEEP KOSHER YOU BASTARD" "If I truly wanted to kill you,@Nero, you'd be dead already. I'd just remove all the mirrors in your home, and you'd die of boredom." "It's a good thing you can't kill an idea, because I'm pretty sure the syphilis is going to kill the rest of you." That last one is a rather low blow from a man who sits on his high horse. So next time Merl, instead of looking ignorant and making assumptions because you want to come to Ben's rescue, learn the history. Also perhaps Ben should stop hating on people who support Trump.. So are you retarded Merl, or just a Ben fanboy?
TheWaterdog6 , So what you're telling me is that Shapiro sent mean Tweets, completely unprovoked, to Milo and Milo was just a sweet civil angel in response. And I'm supposed to believe that Milo, known for his biting commentary, was this angel and Shapiro an evil demon with no citations or context. Even if I was gullible enough to swallow such a line of bull shit, I would be compelled to compare Shapiro to your new god, Trump. Those comments are far more honest and civil than the comments Trump threw Cruz's way. Is Milo low energy or a loser or something? I'm sure he's a grown ass man and he could take it just fine. "White knight" - Oh the irony. Shapiro isn't the one with the princess complex. I don't have to defend him. But it does seem you were quite triggered by what you claim were comments made by Shapiro to Milo. You're standing in a steaming heap of hypocrisy and irony right up to your neck. Dig yourself out of that before attacking Shapiro... or anyone else for that matter. Seriously, try some introspection.
Never said he was a sweet angel. But He certainly didn't go "There" in his tweets then lie to people that Ben was a puss and was afraid to debate him. Isnt Ben the guy who criticizes the media for pushing premature opinions as news? I never proclaimed Trump from the rooftops. And yes Milo is able to take care of himself. Triggered? Well yes, Idiots do trigger me. I think its cause I cant understand why they make such jump in conclusions and logic. Are you an SJW by chance? But I wasnt the one who was triggered by calling Ben "thin skinned." Which I think is well deserved. Hardly my friend, hardly. But for someone who "doesnt" have to defend Ben, you sure seem to be doing a lot of that. Im not defending Milo. I merely pointing out how Shapiro was an ass to someone who supports Trump. Sounds like taking your aggression out on the wrong person to me. But please continue. you make most of my case for me.
Super Punch With the intel that he had it was the right country, but the fact remains that the whole country WAS on his side and did nothing or rather very little in using that to his advantage
I love those that voted for trump are bashing Ben for admitting he is wrong. I’m conservative, but man you guys are just as bad as the snowflakes on college campus’
James Prowse I understand, and I appreciate. It's the announcement preparing us beforehand that I find amusing. I like the way he thinks about most things so I'm not trying to belittle anyone. I particularly like that he admitted he was wrong about multiple topics rather than summing them up into one.
James Prowse -- My response is "suspect" to you. LOL. OK detective. You see, what I find amusing is that, as much as I agree with most of what he says, calling specific attention to his mistakenness appears to my own perception that he believes this is rare. The countenance in your pic, if that's you, just makes it better as you use words like "suspect." Can we discontinue this now? I don't think we're going to help each other in any way.
Pindo Scum Wow, yeah those flaws of holding his ideology and values above that of an ever changing political party really are sinister. He never got fired either, he resigned because he was disgusted with people like you that would lie and pervert the truth and their values for trump. Christ, anyone says anything negative about trump regardless if its true or not and his supporters rush to his defense. Obviously trump isn't perfect and Ben acknowledges that fact, if you hadn't listened he WANTS trump to prove his predictions wrong.

Pindo Scum Ben did not lie. The Michelle Fields incident was inflated by both sides in which trumps manager spewed false narratives with claims ranging from she wasn't touched at all to she was crowding trump and trying to forcefully stop him to talk. On the other side you have claims from Fields ranging from he bruised her arm and shoved her down to he forcefully pulled her away. Ben isn't hypocritical for saying he doesn't agree with the lies that the trump campaign spread or people on Michelle's side inflating it when she just wanted the incident to be forgotten. If you hate people being falsely accused of a crime because of political disagreement, why do you throw these untrue claims at Ben? You just defined hypocritical to a T.
***** Regardless of whether she was lying or not, the police documented bruises, Ben classified it as battery, which it entirely was by legal definition and if you remember correctly he studied law (he would fucking know). All she wanted was an apology and it was inflated by the liberal media focusing in on the stupidest of details and changing the story to fit their narrative. It's pretty obvious that Ben doesn't like Trump, but he fully admitted he was wrong in the video above for his predictions and hopes that Trump proves him wrong again. He wants Trump to become more than just a deplorable who's slightly better than Hillary. By old guard you must mean morally righteous conservatives who value more than just winning- I never claimed otherwise if that's what you implying. If that is the case, then the ideological battle has already been lost.
Dear Cucks - it is a two party system. If he didn't vote for the Republican he essentially is supporting the opponent (in this case that is Hillary). So principled in his 'conservative values' that he would rather see a person who has NO conservative values at all get elected than vote for a person who upholds most of the Republican party's values. Ben is eating his humble pie because he has to - it is his career. If he doesn't get behind Trumps historic and absolutely incredible republican victory - it will kill him (like Glen Beck).
Woah there spastic. Never said you are "with us or against us" - is it not a two party system? Are there not only TWO viable candidates? Oh, it was. Stop trying to twist the words - like a liberal. "100% trumper with no middle ground!! etc, etc," - Wow you sure sound like a liberal. Please tell me more about myself and use slander while you do it. "Not a conservative!!!" - Doesn't support the NRA and 2nd amendment? And all the other republican talking points? Like abortion, immigration, foreign policy, economy, etc. You can't stand that the republican party is the most popular it has been in three decades and it is not a carbon copy of your own ideas. Feel free to show your true colors and vote for the democrats. Because the real republican party is moving forward - even if we have to leave some obsolete relics behind. And ya, even your cuckservative compatriots like Paul Ryan and Ted Cruz - and most of the others have bent the knee to the new revitalized Republican party. You won't be missed.
So are you denying it is a two party system with only two viable candidates? You can't seem to answer a question. You don't have to support either one. Ben's job is his political opinion and promoting conservative values. If you are a self professed "conservative" (and its your job) and the guy who you wanted to vote for endorsed the Republican (conservative) nominee and then you don't vote for the conservative choice that your republican party voted for and you vote for another republican who has exactly a 0% chance of winning --- You are sabotaging the conservative candidate - and therefore helping the other candidate win by diminishing their opposition. Is that so hard to understand? NRA supports him - Trump has even said he supports the NRA - and the second amendment. So let me guess despite all FACTs you believe this because.. muh feelings? Liberal logic. Supports abortion? I guess that is why he is going to appoint a supreme court and help try to overturn Roe V Wade...? "Said before the election!! 20 years ago!!!" - try to listen to what he said during his campaign - not selective hearing from 20 years ago (ya he used to be a democrat - like Reagan). He did not hire illegals. That is a lie. "Hes a business man. All he gives a damn about is the bottom line" Holy shit you sound like the fucking 99%'ers. When the fuck did CONSERVATIVES demonize BUSINESSMEN? What the fuck? Your colors are showing mate. "but we could have all made a stand and told both parties to go to hell" - 'conservative values' is not supporting the conservative candidate. Got it.
Already regret having peeped in here. Seriously, he has to prove something to YOU? We worked very hard for 18 months because we remember him since we were kids. you cannot hide yourself that long. SO HE was under INTERNET scrutiny whereas your TRUE heroes have NEVER been there. WONDER what we'd have heard or seen if they were under the new regime of Internet.
Wes, because intellectual honesty is more important feature than being right all the time. I would never "follow" (poor choice of words, BTW) anyone who could never admit to being wrong.
You would follow him because he admits when he is wrong. I'm not sure why this is difficult for so many morons on this page to understand that most people just make excuses and Ben never does. He is ALWAYS intellectually honest.
I really like how you think before you speak. You actually know about what you're saying, and I agree with you on a lot of points. I fall closer to Libertarian than Republican, but Johnson was a goofy jackass. I'll keep up on your videos and that StyxHexenHammer666 guy. It was nice to have a source for intelligent commentary through this insanity.
Clinton "I thought I was supposed to win the election."
The Devil "I thought you had a soul."
I saw this and laughed.

If only it wasn't true though.
ha!
That's a good one. Thanks for posting it. I'm gonna have to remember that one.
8 years of trump incoming
Let's focus on his first term shall we?
Let's hope. The left will be hellbent on assassination though.
THIS TRAIN HAS NO BRAKES !!! #MAGA
James Everett I really doubt it, because his vice president is actually a way better candidate for the right, it would be really dumb to trade down in their case.
Yeah right. Let's see about that
PRESIDENT
DONALD
J
TRUMP
+Adam Haney
What are you fucking gay? Master God Emperor of the Cosmos, Donald J Trump
And he's crusading across the stars toward our promised land. Lord Marshal Donald J Trump alone has made a pilgrimage to the gates of the UnderVerse...
Won't this half joking trigger Ben?
Wew Lad He's socially liberal...
dlv444 Ben doesn't get triggered, he's a little more mature than that, and a lot more mature than you.
I'm sorry Ben, you were wrong all along, and you will be wrong again. Give the man a chance to lead!!
Deema Tulip That's exactly what he's doing. "Praise him when he's right, criticize him when he's wrong", that's the definition of giving him a chance.
also he just said he wants trump to prove him wrong
Same thing they said about Obama.... "Give the man a chance to lead!". To some he was successful, to others he was horrible. To me, I see people from the gutter still in the same spot they were at 8 years ago.
That's literally what ben has been saying. I listen to his show and he has always said he should continue bashing the media but his past of flip flopping worries him. He says he fears the right media (Breitbart) and politicians will protect him like the left did for the Democrats. They should be honest don't lie for Trump.
People hear what they want to hear
Ben what do we do about the riot!? It seems legalizing pot didn't calm them down like we thought. :(
K-Tech They wanted to be able to afford pot, without working. Why not do a Rob Van Dam and be put through tables every week and earn the money to smoke it.
Is this even Ben's channel? Not verified and I think he's been flagging videos so that we go to their web site for ads.
Lets enact martial law on those sore losers.
This is definitely not Bens channel, he will never see your question.
Smokey McJoint but it is...it's the daily wire TH-cam channel...it says daily wire on his laptop and behind him, and anyone can see this...pretty sure he's aware of his own videos
Crazy looking back at this, but he did prove Ben Shapiro wrong. What a president so far!
It gets worse
@@tjryeguy92 I can’t buy eggs 😢
Hopefully he’ll be back. Israel and Ukraine are burning, our border is worthless, and our economy is stagnant. Oh yeah, and our new president is a zombie lol
Yeah, this just appeared in my recommended. Crazy how much the world has changed.
Can you please run for president when you become of age ?
He can't ever run.
B Ahve why?
B Ahve why not?
+Frank Martinez lol he's not related to great Britain's former king
You have to be 35, not 40
Kinda scary how many "TRUMP NO MATTER WHAT" people there are. Ben is a good guy and a lot of people here are bitching at him simply for not being crazy for Trump. Sorry, I don't like him either although I voted for him because I couldn't stand idly by and watch Hillary become president.
Ben has a lot of valid points concerning Trump but heres what it comes down to ya'll. I like Ben, am willing to give Trump the benefit of the doubt and hope he proves me and Ben wrong by being a great president. Plain and simple.
Ben is a hell of a smart guy and deserves better than your shitty comments.
Anyone willing to risk Hillary Clinton becoming President is a straight piece of dog shit, you want the Constitution replaced? If yes, then fuck yourself
Joe V I rest my case...
You didn't rest anything, you have no point delusional baby
buyerofsorts I didn't love Trump either, but I was completely anti-establishment and wanted to figuratively blow up Washington...so yeah...all in.
DonutCare Whats with the name DonutCare? Do you love donuts? God knows I do! Seriously, although I"m ashamed to admit it.
I voted for Trump and would absolutely without question vote Ben Shapiro to office if he ever ran. Which he should.
metalgrinch i dont think we will see another Republican in the white house after this unless we can preserve conservative values in our youth. hate to say it but these kids are brainwashed. lets change that democratic bs in the next 4 years.
metalgrinch i do agree he should run when hes 35.
Section8 millionaire People like Ben have turned very liberal members of minorities into conservatives. I am one of them. I'm 16 and I promise to you, we will not give up. We will win this fight against the radical left. I hope you have a good day.
+++Yay Victor!
Logic is not as sure or swift a path to truth as inspiration. Ben lacks inspiration. He's a prodigy, but not a genius. I would worry he proves to have feet of clay when put to the test. He would be a great advisor to someone with the right instincts and judgement, though.
You admitted it....now come home Benji....we miss you bro!
Can't come home when you never left, Ben has been solid on his beliefs and morals this whole time.
SimplificationX Yeah..I think Benji is brilliant..,,just busting his balls..
He's not welcome back.
Sshhh.. Let him go.. He's gold merchant now
mep41376 We cool.
"I was wrong..."
"I was wrong..."
"I was wrong..."
I listen to Ben because he has the balls to be honest and intellectually honest about himself and his positions.
Ben: "Donald will not beat Hillary."
Donald: "wrong"
Did Shapiro vote for Gary "who is Al Leppo?" Johnson?
No, didn't vote in that section, simply down ballot.
Aleppo is one word, idk if that was mistake or not.
one of these:
he secretly voted for Trump but unwilling to admit it (my boat)
voted for Harambe (write in)
voted for Johnson (possibly)
pretended he even voted at all (didn't vote)
Realpolitik Gary doesn't know what a leopard is
He doesn't need to know
It takes a Big Man to admit he's wrong.
Ben Shapiro is actually taller than Tom Cruise.
I love my precious metals from birch gold and my awesome healthy snacks and bedsheets that Benny reminds me to head over and get some every week. Love ya

WHAT ABOUT TRACKR

I cannot say this enough.
yeah, except the fanboys, but I guess that's obvious :P Some of my leftist collegues started crying at work because Trump won :D and the leftist labor party is running scared Trump will force my country to start paying more of the percentage of NATO expenses and scared that there will be no confrontation with Putin now that Warmonger Leftist Hillary isn't elected >:)
EXACTLY!!!
sgtsnakeeyes11
No... we are confident in him. That doesn't mean we would also be naively biased if he were to turn on us...
Thomas More i actually believe that if you think trump is better than hillary there's a very good chance you have a low IQ. there's no contest, hillary is way better.
Ben, you just admitted that you've been wrong about Trump on just about everything. Why don't you give him the benefit of the doubt and start supporting him instead of trashing him?
Saint Michael have u not watched the video? it's all about giving trump a chance now that he won. comprehension isnt one of your strong points is it?
He's not giving him the benefit of the doubt. That was the question.
Saint Michael @ Saint Michael- My point exactly!! He has a personal hatred for Trump. So sad.
He didn't trash him at all here. He merely stated some things that have been true about Trump but that he has been wrong about a lot of things concerning the election and Trump and hoped that Trump, as President, would be everything we hope he'll be and prove him (Ben) wrong again.
I think Ben Shapiro really does want the best for the country and really does hope he's been wrong about Trump. I haven't agreed with everything Ben's ever said but for the most part he's on target.
As for Trump, hey, he's been very presidential lately and I think this is what Ben's talking about as for as the candor of a Republican President.
Ben is a conservative. A true conservative and Trump is not.
Ben, your mostly right, but I am worried that Hillary would not face anywhere near as much scrutiny if she were elected. Everything that Trump says and does will be scrutinized by BOTH Republicans and Democrat citizens.
Andres Arellano
He will come through a winner. Because that's what he is.
Donald Trump became President, because that is his destiny.
They used to call Ronald Reagan the Teflon president, because the criticism didn't stick to him. well you know, they've improved Teflon.
teflon president because he's actually toxic, and after a bit of use begins to degrade and seep into your food, slowly poisoning you. Talking about Reagan, not trump. Reagan did a lot of good but the war on drugs is soooooo retarded. Only reason it's good is because it woke me up early with it's terrible disguise.
That's a good thing, and you shouldn't be afraid of it. NO president, whether that be a Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Obama, or Trump, should be exempt from the scrutiny and criticisms from the American people. If you want to live in a country where it's citizens are not allowed to critique and criticize its leaders, then you want to live under the rule of a dictator. The first Ammendment is our most sacred right as citizens! Freedom of speech and free press! Without THAT, we cannot call ourself a free country. As Voltaire said, "I may not agree with what you say, but I will die for your right to say it."
Amanda Hugginkiss Amen
i voted for Trump and i support him wholeheartedly. Having said that i completely agree with your sentiment. I pray Trump has the strength and character to lead with wisdom and to answer questions about that leadership openly and honestly. I want President Trump to succeed very much but more importantly i want him to remember he serves us and not the other way around.
The entire GOP needs to rally behind him and make the changes we need.
The last thing we need is the GOP to support Trump unconditionally, we need people to stand for conservative principles in order to set this country on the right track again, and I don't think Trump is really a conservative.
I agree he isn't a conservative but I don't think that means he will fail to stand for the principles. The GOP has completely broken by infighting and they need to move past that. Support him where he is right. Don't support him where he is wrong but they better get stuff done and fast.
I like Ben Shapiro, he is a very intelligent man but I never understood him being against Trump. Especially when the only other choice is lying crooked Hillary.
King David Ben is the typical egotistical megalomaniac. He insults Trump for being REAL, not faking and lying, to kiss people's ass in order to get their vote. Any other person who runs for president has always had less to lose thanTrump. Trump had the cahonas to risk his life, his riches, his businesses to run for president, over anyone else...... BECAUSE he CARES about our country and wants to save us from losing our country! He never HAD to do this. He could have ignored politics and kept living his dream life, and let someone else take this abuse. HE CAN'T BE BOUGHT! HE IS FOR REAL, which is why he is MORE qualified for the job than anyone else. No politician EVER had the experience to run a country until they got elected!
I voted for him because he is the only one running who ever had a success in running a business. I would give him the chance to try .
he was against him because trump as a person represents everything wrong with ben's ideals and morals, he wasn't going to cheer for someone like that.
I agree 100% Cynthia. Very well put on your comment. I voted Trump as well. In my opinion the government is a very large business so who better to run it than the greatest business man in the world.God bless you and God bless the greatest country on the planet, the United States of America.
I've never heard him answer that question. I wonder who he voted for. Whoever it was, was in practice a vote for hillary.
didn't vote for president, at least thats what he's being saying all this time
Maybe you should work in this administration and help keep him on track?
He has kids bro
Marie Schieler No thank you.
Ben Please Debate Milo He DOES want to Debate you it would be a Great sign of Maturity if you and him would make a Date and debate plz
Too bad Milo chickened out of the debate.
Ben has witnessed 20 years of poor presidents and is disillusioned and he sees Trump with all his flaws and expects the exact same thing.
Trump will cut taxes and this will massively grow the economy just like what Reagan did and guess what people will love Trump for this and guess what Trump knows this as well. Ego is a great thing sometimes.
What would they debate about? The only thing they disagree on politically is the personality cult around Trump. Other than that they agree on basically everything... politically :P
Trump not being a traditional conservative is what makes him likable and is what made him win.
Trump isn't a Conservative, he is a populist independent who ran on the Republican ticket because that was the only chance he had of winning. And by the way, I don't have a radio show, etc and I got the Trump win right and collected my money from the bookies. It was pretty obvious really, because Hilary was just a terrible candidate. You can call me for tips next time Ben, if you want.
Ade Falcon I agree. His ideas traverse both sides of the isle.
Ade Falcon You say Trump couldn't win without the Republican nomination, but I say the Republicans wouldn't have won without Trump. The Kentucky state House has been Democrat for 95 years, but now it's Republican. Because of Trump. If Ben Shapiro had his way, it would still be Democrat.
That's exactly why Ben doesn't really like Trump. Because Ben is a TRUE conservative, down to the bone. I'm not saying that's a bad thing; I'm just saying that's who he is.
Ade Falcon if there was an American nationalist party, Trump would be in it, as would more than half of Republicans and siphon away democrats.
Sorry but I don't believe that to be the case. Just about every conservative that I personally know was not voting for trump but was voting against hillary.
As a Catholic American I am praying with you Ben. And hope to be proven wrong by someone my little brother has supported since Marco Rubio lost.
Continue to pray that God will use Trump in wonderful ways.
sO Trump has to prove you're wrong? Why... if you've been wrong the whole time?
+alphavortex1 agree with that. I think Ben is worried about a moderate republican party more than anything else. Hardcore conservatives are unelectable as president in my opinion.
TheEndOfThought
yea, hardcore anything I think
No, he is honestly wishing/praying that Trump will prove his personal distrust wrong again because it will be good for the country. I understand his angst. How many times have the GOP failed to keep their promises. So, an honest question is, will Trump remain true to his promise and resolute or will he cave. That, to me, is an honest worry which is mine who, in this case, voted for him. Already in his acceptance speech he has praised Hillary for her contribution and service. What?! She used her position to milk millions, corrupted the DOJ and FBI, and put the country at risk. What is there to praise? All he should have said was that she put up a good fight and nothing else. That is why I am worried as Ben is.
gyjainga Trump just needs to hire me for the two first years with out retribution, I'll tell him the shit he doesn't want to hear. He can fire me after two years of honesty. He only has two years till mid term. Those two years are the only bets he can place that he'll know he'll get shit done.
How sure are you that you will keep true to your promise? Maybe, I should say that I doubt you will be strong enough to handle the unbelievable pressures that you will be exposed to. In short, you are making foolish declarations that suggest to me that you will turn up a wimp if it truly happens that he takes you on. You see, those in his shoes have studied the art of intimidation, solicitation, temptation, etc. What are your weaknesses XGC Scrappy? Compared to them you are a tyro. They will easily find out your weakness and exploit it. So, please, enough of brogadachio. If there is such a word. It doesn't really serve you well.
I am still shocked there's a foreign model in the white house.
Connor Marquez but you weren't shocked that for the past 8 years 2 were in the white house?
Not shocking at all to a Canadian. You should see what we have a 24 Sussex Drive.
I kinda see Trump as having adapted along the way... Take a look at the primaries versus now. I have faith, he just was never a career politician. Minus the Alfred Smith dinner, I think he has hit back when he needed to, hell, even at that same dinner. He isn't the "bully". My child is in first grade, has gotten bullied all last year by one asshole kid with worthless parents. The teachers refused to do anything and offered up excuses about the other child's way of doing things and that my child being white, he owed it to minorities to be bullied and take it with a grain of salt. Well, I encouraged him and showed him how to defend himself. A week later, this kid kicked my child in the face while he was tying his shoes. My son punched this kid in his nose and put him on the ground. After a full year of bullying. My son is the one that ends up going to the office, now he is the one labeled the bully for FINALLY hitting back. Society needs to change. Period. The bully isn't the one that gets enough of bullying. Donald Trump was a joke to Hillary and it bit her hard. I hope he doesn't screw things up. I hope, if anything, he brings us back further from Obama's horrible, country destroying policies.
Also, Trump's sleazy comment to a sleazy guy in private feigns in comparison to the Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton supporters tearing down cities, rioting looking and shooting cops. No one talks about how offensive that shit is.
Rewatching this 2+ years later it is a shame to think that Obamacare was never repealed
Thank mccain
A lot was undone
I think Trump is surrounding himself with decent people... it he works WITH them, good things can happen. This election was a Monster vs. a Mystery... now we elected the mystery. The people Trump put around him for the most part were OK with me.
You are also wrong about Jesus Christ not being the Messiah.
Who’s here after hearing Ben say “ur not president until you’re president” in 2020
Right here, Ben just showed what he is, a hypocrite
Haha this was funny to watch today
Right
Considering your string of wrong judgments, I think it's safe to assume your assumption about Trump being a bad person will also fail. You should take all of this as evidence that you need to re-examine your methods of data analysis; something in your mind is creating consistently wrong conclusions.
You admit you were wrong about everything, then immediately go on to make a bunch of new predictions that will ultimately be proven to be wrong.
Ben, the honesty, morality and sense of humor you convey will keep me a fan for years
R u still a fan?
Ben while I like you, the problem with the conservative movement is we don't appeal to minorities. We need to target Minorities and tell them why our way is correct. Give them the ladder and let them climb. Minorities will become the majority in years to come. So we need to use Trumps victories in those areas an amplify them but stick to our values as well.
For instance his trade policy. You disagree with it. But the problem is we can't have free trade unless BOTH parties have free trade. Our value must be applied equally. If they increase tariffs then we bring it to their lv and tell them "We are willing to have a free trade. But you need to do it WITH us."
Cody Townsend our government would have to stop pocketing the so much money and start putting it into low-income areas...good luck getting that to happen.
Specially when those same low-income areas tend to have a lot or riots + high crime rates. Nobody is going to take that investment risk...
They burn down their own shops and complain about not having goods.
Ibo Fons
Oh I know that. but instead of giving them free Food, and housing, why don't we make a car loan bill. One they can buy when they get a job. Which they can get with the car. Or just a cheep small busing place. And invest in businesses just outside the city. And slowey build in while they adapt?
OR. Infrastructure. While it doesn't increase GPA, It would temperarliy give them jobs and stop crime. THEN we can invest.
Cody Townsend I respect your idea, and I sincerely agree with it. But frankly, I think that it would only work on a low/middle income area populated by working class families with average education.
The reality of the low income areas that we're talking about here is that they're occupied by people with broken families and low education standards. Most of them can't hold a steady job for more than 2 months and many turn to crime as a way out.
Plus, with all the race disparity that's going on, thinks get even harder.
You want actual change, you need to change the culture and education first. Only then can you get things moving.
Ibo Fons
Oh I agree there. But if we do that to other areas, Stop common core, and let the churches, communities etc try an influence culture then we can show them WITH proof it works. I never implied it ill happen in a year =P.
But I can't live under liberal ruleforever and if we can't get them and show them WE are the true freedom people and non racists then we will loose when they become a majority.
I just watched today's video of yours and you mentioned that Joe Biden is technically not president elect due to no state certifying the election but you mentioned that Trump was president-elect multiple times in this video. Just looking for consistency in your comments.
Ben Shapiro is awesome! Happy trump got in office as well
am i the only liberal who likes ben???
I used to like this guy. When Trump does prove him wrong, I will insist that he go away with the rest of the #NEVERTRUMPers.
I've got to say, I really respect Ben for being willing to humbly admit that he was wrong, and his willingness to hope that Trump will be a good president. That's what all of us should be doing right now, whether they voting for Trump or not.
***** Why, because we voted against Killary?
Looks like he's been proving you wrong for almost 3 years. At least you were man enough to say what others never will. Others will hate on President Trump even when things are going great.
Ben, you are Wrong Again. Being someone who promoted you and your career to many conservatives when you were fresh out of college I was disappointed by your stubbornness on this matter. I have been confident that Trump was going to win since he announced his entry into the Race. Because I saw the Real Trump during the revival of NYC in the 1990's. During a real estate walk-thru of a property redevelopment in Manhattan I most remember how natural and comfortable Trump was with his workers I'm talking Concrete, electricians, laborers. He had all of them relaxed and loyal to his mission. He sometimes would grab a Hot Dog from the corner vendor and sit with everyone else. He could have catered in a special meal with his money. I think if you continue to take yourself too seriously you will continue to be wrong. I know you love hearing your voice and you enjoy the voices of your fans praising your moral compass. What you failed to recognize is that sometimes the stakes are so high that only a fool would dig in for principle at these moments. I love and appreciate the work you've done in such a short time for the conservatives in America & the World. Ben, I wish you would understand that when you are constantly under assault everywhere you go for reasons that defy logic, it can actually change a person no matter how hard you try to not let the damage show. Trump is under attack for his silver spoon, his skin color, his confidence and everything he holds dear. His defense was a shell of vocal promotion of himself since no one else will give him praise. I am confident saying this, he will go down in history as the President who saved our nation and the Greatest President to lead our country ever. I know those are big claims so please listen and help instead of hamper. Going forward you are going to see wins like never before. Trump will be the hardest, smartest and a most Loyal leader to his voters than you could ever imagine. Join in on the moment and don't over think it. Trump will need us all while he enters into the meat grinder.
Tony V. Hey man, that was nice!
I've been laughing at angry leftists when I should be support long the president-elect more than ever, especially with all these hypocrites in the streets protesting democracy.
Democracy is the rule of the majority, Trump lost the majority vote. This is not Democracy.
novazee you are wrong, twice
Novazee, you would not be complaining if the roles were reversed with Clinton.
POTUS election is a combination of 50 states having their own elections. There is no SINGLE election, hence lumping all the votes in one bucket is merely your wet dreaming.
Also the votes aren't even counted yet, and DJT will likely have the (irrelevant) majority in the end.
You were wrong, so that is why I stopped listening to you and stopped watching your videos.
I don't even like Trump as a candidate, but now I do. Because this is absolutely hilarious.
Ok, I'll bite, what did Trump, in your mind, do that was so bad?
Well Ben I just saw your Vid on Biden being elected and yet you said "you're not president till you're president" oh so what's this, "President elect Trump". Ah I see typical 1 rule for Trump and another for Biden. Quit crying already
I always knew you were wrong Ben......but I'm glad you were man enough to say you were wrong.....
You're a poor judge of character. I actually believe the guy has a good heart he just lacks spiritual conviction. He's surrounded by a good party and good people and will probably do just fine.
Styxhexenhammer666 predicted a trump win
Dave Dudd many of us did.
59 million people as well
I didn't know you knew Donald Trump ... Everyone that know him personally say that Trump is a good man (i.e. T.O. Mike Tyson Hershel Walker Lynn Patton Dana White Tom Brady Bill Belichick, etc... ) w/ the exception of you ..As someone that knows him personally, why do you say he's a bad man?
Ben's Haircut and studio got a lot better over 5 years.
In the beginning Ben makes it clear that he got it wrong on about 10 issues. The biggest two for me is that Trump would not win the primaries and would not become president. And this is where Ben gambled and lost, big time.If Trump had lost, Ben would of been the man, he would have had thousands of more followers and everyone would have come to him for wisdom. He gambled his future success on Trump losing and now he is not part of the 33 million viewership that Breitbart enjoys.He is not part of the Trump team that is today guiding the most powerful man in the world. Ben vilified the man, just like the left,in fact a little worse than the left. I watched Ben closely in this Ep. 208 and what came over was a man desperate to salvage his reputation. You did what all the media did Ben. You followed and believed the polls. You were watered and fed by the media even if you deny this. I am an amateur at politics, not even well educated. I bought two of your books because at 55 I was concerned at what I was witnessing over the years and became a big fan of yours Yet as a South African now living in Britain and who voted for Brexit saw exactly what was happening and knew that Brexit was going to win. How? Because I spoke to ordinary people. The local shopkeeper asked me what was I voting for noting my South African accent and I said Brexit and he went silent and said, all my customers are voting for Brexit. So I started asking shop keepers like the hardware guy and he said the same, his customers were voting Brexit. It did not take a genius or a politically aware person to realise that the majority, who are ordinary people were not thinking the same as those voices coming from the Telly. When Brexit won i focused on USA election and started following Breitbart. What I noticed immediately was the comment section. that section which you hated so much because a couple of idiots were anti Semitic. While you were absorbed by this I was absorbed at what the vast majority of the comments were saying. I noted ordinary people talking the same language,. i noted exactly what I noticed in Britain and that was ordinary people were not thinking the same as what I was hearing on CNN and those other idiot channels. After 2 debates with Trump my daughter in law who writes for the British spectator asked me "do i think Trump will become president" and my immediate answer was absolutely, no doubt". she phoned me the same day that Trump won and asked how did I know. i told her because I am an ordinary person and we live in the real world. I was listening to the majority whereas her, a very savy political Journalist had been listening to media people, elitist who she though were intelligent. Even she was guilty, as you were, of living in a bubble. hope you have learnt your lesson ben, though i doubt it., because I see you still have followers and i have no doubt these followers also live in a little bubble who would not be able to name one friend who voted for Trump. I bet they know a lot more friends that voted for Hillary.
I’m listening to this now almost in tears pretending it’s from 2020. What a BS year. Last year of the free republic.
Are we now in chains?
Ben what the fuck; "I didn't vote for Trump, I didn't want to see Hillary win though." Like, who the fuck did you expect to beat her? Some mysterious constitutional conservative that was going to rise from the ashes? Ted Cruz? Jeez...
I pray that Trump upholds his promises, we need a leader that will do that.
Pray for Trump to have Godly wisdom, discernment. His surrounding cabinet are Godly people Carson, Pence. God will move in their hearts and minds. He is now a bigger target then ever and that is hard to imagine.
Why’s this being recommended to me 🤣🤣
You made your bed, don't care what you think.
A centrist trump defeating Hillary - sounds like a great result all round to me ;)
AND you were DEAD WRONG ABOUT awful MIchelle FIELDS. Don't pray for him. Pray for yourself. Actually don't care...
congrats for Ben for admitting he was wrong. takes character to admit you were so wrong.
Agreed much respect for him
dude Trump has done a lot of shit conservatives have been dying to do. He's actually not that bad at being president. its the personal petty shit that gets him in trouble.
I know it's semantics, but Ben Shapiro just said one of the most liberal things I have ever heard anyone say... "I will criticize him when he doesn't deserve it.". My good friend Sterling taught me a word a very long time ago - "Phrasing!". Yes, you simpleton, I do know what he really meant, shut up.
hmpf ben is growing weak.. he is past his prime where he fought with logic and he keeps on getting emotional and argues with feelings..
I guess orange really is the new black. :D
If Ben and Camille Paglia bred their child would be able to speak for three hours without taking a breath.
Great to see that you're finally on the Trump Train Ben!
He's not, haha. Did you see the video?
XSilentDiscipleX he seems hopeful though.. kinda.
Well Ben.. If in fact you didn't actually vote for him or at all vote then just shut your mouth.
We did what was right to stop Hillary. Mission accomplished. So the next thing to do is hold them all to account if they don't do what they say they will do.
Yep you were absolutely wrong Ben , like you to admit it this finally
I'm not conservative, but I do have to admit I have a bit of respect for Ben Shapiro. A breath of fresh in comparison to Alex Jones.
I hate how he keeps labeling him a "reality tv star" . Trump was a successful businessman long before he was ever on reality tv. Ronald Reagan was a hollywood actor and then became governor and then president. So I dont understand why its so ridicilous to that a very successful businessman did reality tv and then ran for president.
+sheenhan1able His hate of Trump is overexagerated and its petty. He can analyze shit all he wants but he doesnt know what America wants and what is best for America.
*YOUR HUMILITY ALLOWS ME to STAY with YOU.*
Anyone can make mistakes or become blinded. I agree we shall wait & see.
Come on Ben, this country needs a rest from the neocon and progressive globalists. besides, what victories do conservatives have to show for themselves? We know Trump isn't a conservative, but he's a nationalist and we need this right now.
13:59 pretty much exactly what ended up happening.
Ben would make a great president.
You were also wrong for not voting for Trump
You didn't vote for Trump but says you thought he was not Conservative enough! You did back-stab all Conservatives by *not* voting for Trump. You are right about admitting your mistake...now admit you were wrong about Milo as well...
Say sorry to Milo now?
ParasaurolophusLovesCoffee , For what?
Maybe for being a thin skinned Trump hater.
Merl Ball
No oh Ben's white night I am referring to the fact that that Ben is an asshole to people sometimes, particularly to Trump supporters. Ben has made some rather colorful remarks to Milo in the past, Milo of course took it in stride. However eventually Ben got harsher and harsher. When they were scheduling an interview, during a busy time with Milo, Ben said that he was afraid to talk to him. Milo responded that he was busy and would talk to him anytime he could set it up. I have yet to see that interview. But here are a few of Ben tweets.
"To be fair, your knees are pretty calloused by now"
"I KEEP KOSHER YOU BASTARD"
"If I truly wanted to kill you,@Nero, you'd be dead already. I'd just remove all the mirrors in your home, and you'd die of boredom."
"It's a good thing you can't kill an idea, because I'm pretty sure the syphilis is going to kill the rest of you."
That last one is a rather low blow from a man who sits on his high horse. So next time Merl, instead of looking ignorant and making assumptions because you want to come to Ben's rescue, learn the history. Also perhaps Ben should stop hating on people who support Trump..
So are you retarded Merl, or just a Ben fanboy?
TheWaterdog6 , So what you're telling me is that Shapiro sent mean Tweets, completely unprovoked, to Milo and Milo was just a sweet civil angel in response. And I'm supposed to believe that Milo, known for his biting commentary, was this angel and Shapiro an evil demon with no citations or context.
Even if I was gullible enough to swallow such a line of bull shit, I would be compelled to compare Shapiro to your new god, Trump. Those comments are far more honest and civil than the comments Trump threw Cruz's way. Is Milo low energy or a loser or something? I'm sure he's a grown ass man and he could take it just fine.
"White knight" - Oh the irony. Shapiro isn't the one with the princess complex. I don't have to defend him. But it does seem you were quite triggered by what you claim were comments made by Shapiro to Milo.
You're standing in a steaming heap of hypocrisy and irony right up to your neck. Dig yourself out of that before attacking Shapiro... or anyone else for that matter. Seriously, try some introspection.
Never said he was a sweet angel. But He certainly didn't go "There" in his tweets then lie to people that Ben was a puss and was afraid to debate him. Isnt Ben the guy who criticizes the media for pushing premature opinions as news?
I never proclaimed Trump from the rooftops. And yes Milo is able to take care of himself.
Triggered? Well yes, Idiots do trigger me. I think its cause I cant understand why they make such jump in conclusions and logic. Are you an SJW by chance? But I wasnt the one who was triggered by calling Ben "thin skinned." Which I think is well deserved.
Hardly my friend, hardly. But for someone who "doesnt" have to defend Ben, you sure seem to be doing a lot of that. Im not defending Milo. I merely pointing out how Shapiro was an ass to someone who supports Trump. Sounds like taking your aggression out on the wrong person to me.
But please continue. you make most of my case for me.
You've been wrong all along and he still has to prove to YOU? LOL
Bush Jr. had control of the house and senate and did not get everything done his wanted but hopefully Trump with be different
Isaac Murphy Then again Bush had to deal with 9/11 which was a MAJOR setback which we are honestly still recovering from today.
Super Punch With the intel that he had it was the right country, but the fact remains that the whole country WAS on his side and did nothing or rather very little in using that to his advantage
You were dead wrong about the Iraq War, too. You skipped that one.
"I will criticize him when he does not deserve it."
Sounds about right.
I love those that voted for trump are bashing Ben for admitting he is wrong. I’m conservative, but man you guys are just as bad as the snowflakes on college campus’
Hahaha this is the first time I've ever been glad you were wrong.
Ben I love ya but can we let him get into office before tearing him apart? We are enjoying this hard won victory.
Making an announcement that you were wrong to people that can clearly see that already.
James Prowse
I understand, and I appreciate. It's the announcement preparing us beforehand that I find amusing. I like the way he thinks about most things so I'm not trying to belittle anyone. I particularly like that he admitted he was wrong about multiple topics rather than summing them up into one.
"Makes announcement that he is wrong, still does not change his opinion." Yeah, that's logical.
James Prowse -- My response is "suspect" to you. LOL. OK detective. You see, what I find amusing is that, as much as I agree with most of what he says, calling specific attention to his mistakenness appears to my own perception that he believes this is rare. The countenance in your pic, if that's you, just makes it better as you use words like "suspect."
Can we discontinue this now? I don't think we're going to help each other in any way.
Trump really changed a lot.
Come back to us Benji, we are waiting.
You're the ones who left. Ben can't come back to anywhere he hasn't been.
Pindo Scum Wow, yeah those flaws of holding his ideology and values above that of an ever changing political party really are sinister. He never got fired either, he resigned because he was disgusted with people like you that would lie and pervert the truth and their values for trump. Christ, anyone says anything negative about trump regardless if its true or not and his supporters rush to his defense. Obviously trump isn't perfect and Ben acknowledges that fact, if you hadn't listened he WANTS trump to prove his predictions wrong.

Pindo Scum Ben did not lie. The Michelle Fields incident was inflated by both sides in which trumps manager spewed false narratives with claims ranging from she wasn't touched at all to she was crowding trump and trying to forcefully stop him to talk. On the other side you have claims from Fields ranging from he bruised her arm and shoved her down to he forcefully pulled her away. Ben isn't hypocritical for saying he doesn't agree with the lies that the trump campaign spread or people on Michelle's side inflating it when she just wanted the incident to be forgotten. If you hate people being falsely accused of a crime because of political disagreement, why do you throw these untrue claims at Ben? You just defined hypocritical to a T.
***** Regardless of whether she was lying or not, the police documented bruises, Ben classified it as battery, which it entirely was by legal definition and if you remember correctly he studied law (he would fucking know). All she wanted was an apology and it was inflated by the liberal media focusing in on the stupidest of details and changing the story to fit their narrative. It's pretty obvious that Ben doesn't like Trump, but he fully admitted he was wrong in the video above for his predictions and hopes that Trump proves him wrong again. He wants Trump to become more than just a deplorable who's slightly better than Hillary. By old guard you must mean morally righteous conservatives who value more than just winning- I never claimed otherwise if that's what you implying. If that is the case, then the ideological battle has already been lost.
my biggest fear is that Trump's white House Staff is gonna be an echo chamber for him.
He won. Get over it.
Boss Theory he is over it. Thus the entire message of this video.
He is lol. Did you watch the video? He said he's skeptical but wants Trump to do well.
I don't like Trump... but I dislike Clinton more
Ben voted for Hillary, "muh conservative values"
Progeny of Europe No he didn't, he didn't vote for either of them.
Dear Cucks - it is a two party system. If he didn't vote for the Republican he essentially is supporting the opponent (in this case that is Hillary).
So principled in his 'conservative values' that he would rather see a person who has NO conservative values at all get elected than vote for a person who upholds most of the Republican party's values.
Ben is eating his humble pie because he has to - it is his career. If he doesn't get behind Trumps historic and absolutely incredible republican victory - it will kill him (like Glen Beck).
Woah there spastic. Never said you are "with us or against us" - is it not a two party system? Are there not only TWO viable candidates? Oh, it was. Stop trying to twist the words - like a liberal.
"100% trumper with no middle ground!! etc, etc," - Wow you sure sound like a liberal. Please tell me more about myself and use slander while you do it.
"Not a conservative!!!" - Doesn't support the NRA and 2nd amendment? And all the other republican talking points? Like abortion, immigration, foreign policy, economy, etc.
You can't stand that the republican party is the most popular it has been in three decades and it is not a carbon copy of your own ideas. Feel free to show your true colors and vote for the democrats. Because the real republican party is moving forward - even if we have to leave some obsolete relics behind. And ya, even your cuckservative compatriots like Paul Ryan and Ted Cruz - and most of the others have bent the knee to the new revitalized Republican party.
You won't be missed.
Trump may care more about religious rights more but only because he sees it a potential voters.
So are you denying it is a two party system with only two viable candidates? You can't seem to answer a question.
You don't have to support either one. Ben's job is his political opinion and promoting conservative values. If you are a self professed "conservative" (and its your job) and the guy who you wanted to vote for endorsed the Republican (conservative) nominee and then you don't vote for the conservative choice that your republican party voted for and you vote for another republican who has exactly a 0% chance of winning --- You are sabotaging the conservative candidate - and therefore helping the other candidate win by diminishing their opposition.
Is that so hard to understand?
NRA supports him - Trump has even said he supports the NRA - and the second amendment. So let me guess despite all FACTs you believe this because.. muh feelings? Liberal logic.
Supports abortion? I guess that is why he is going to appoint a supreme court and help try to overturn Roe V Wade...? "Said before the election!! 20 years ago!!!" - try to listen to what he said during his campaign - not selective hearing from 20 years ago (ya he used to be a democrat - like Reagan).
He did not hire illegals. That is a lie.
"Hes a business man. All he gives a damn about is the bottom line"
Holy shit you sound like the fucking 99%'ers. When the fuck did CONSERVATIVES demonize BUSINESSMEN? What the fuck? Your colors are showing mate.
"but we could have all made a stand and told both parties to go to hell" - 'conservative values' is not supporting the conservative candidate. Got it.
Already regret having peeped in here. Seriously, he has to prove something to YOU? We worked very hard for 18 months because we remember him since we were kids. you cannot hide yourself that long. SO HE was under INTERNET scrutiny whereas your TRUE heroes have NEVER been there. WONDER what we'd have heard or seen if they were under the new regime of Internet.
This guy said he was wrong for the first 2 minutes of the show why would i follow him?
Wes Desil were all wrong sometimes. Im just glad he acknowledges his wrongs.
because everyone's human? noone's perfect? but you're free to unfollow him if you want
Wes, because intellectual honesty is more important feature than being right all the time. I would never "follow" (poor choice of words, BTW) anyone who could never admit to being wrong.
Wes Desil because what makes a man a man, is if he can admit he's wrong about something
You would follow him because he admits when he is wrong. I'm not sure why this is difficult for so many morons on this page to understand that most people just make excuses and Ben never does. He is ALWAYS intellectually honest.
I really like how you think before you speak. You actually know about what you're saying, and I agree with you on a lot of points. I fall closer to Libertarian than Republican, but Johnson was a goofy jackass. I'll keep up on your videos and that StyxHexenHammer666 guy. It was nice to have a source for intelligent commentary through this insanity.
