It is amazing how some people hate trump so much they are blinded from seeing how much good he is doing.... he is exactly what the country needs to put it back on track.
Love this enlightening presentation. Thankyou. We need Trump in Canada for 4 years now
AGREE
VDH you are the man! God bless you, America and President Trump
Love VDH! So articulate and on point on the serious issues we as a nation face!
You need to convince Mr. Hanson to do a TH-cam channel
It would raise ALOT of money for his farm or he could donate to other Farmers
He is brilliant absolutely brilliant
Thank You for having him on...
I just found his podcast👍🏼
You can subscribe on his website, $5/month and you get access to all of his articles and dozens of episodes of his podcast and radio appearances. Well worth it, I'm like you and I can't hear enough of this guy.
Would it not be wonderful to be able to take classes from this great man. He’s never offensive , kind considerate and notice his voice remain calm and collected. It would be a sure honor to see him speak or meet him.
@Brent Freshour It was. If it wasn't, you'd be speaking German.
Brent Freshour this is so ridiculous it’s hilarious! You fool! He wouldn’t waste his intellect to teach you how to blink you twit!!
Brave is the man who speaks the truth amid a maelstrom of deceit.
"What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind" Friedrich Neitzsche... God help us all even though he said God is dead... Lol
I give you some truth tired of American bullying smaller country with their dollars.
OH I LIKE THAT!!
@Bill always has to be one of you in the crowd doesn't there..and i don't mean some white person trying to join the oppression olympics,i just mean jackass.I will work up a tear for ya...i promise...
@4Him4u2: Then you should respect Jehovah's Witnesses.
This is the only video that comes across my auto play daily that I actually enjoy and that I let play entirely. Victor David Hanson is an American treasure. Every word is prolific.
His clarity is like a scalpel. Thank you Victor and John for this incisive summary of events. Like many, I was aware of most of the dynamics but when its confirmed and clarified like this it gives you a lot of confidence.
Victor Davis Hanson is a brilliant man! More people need to watch this video.
Compared to President Blowhard and our dimwitted VP,
anyone with a functioning brain would seem brilliant.
Well he needs to learn a few truths if he is so brilliant.
As a scholar of antiquity, yes. As an analyst of contemporary politics, no.
VDH is the man who made me realize that Trump is not the enemy right now.
Welcome
Sonia Estevez so Biden is your candidate?? Say some of his accomplishments your happy about instead of repeating the same old boring Trump hating statements! Just once! You all sound like a broken record! Good grief!
Corey G - I'm not even American(I'm English) but I know that if President Trump doesn't get re-elected, we're ALL in big trouble; not just America!!!
@Corey VDH has red-pilled masses of dumbed- down, deluded liberals-those that no one else could reach. He's plain spoken, clear, and speaks on a level any intelligent person with an open mind can comprehend. God bless him.
He was never the enemy. They made us feel he was.
Victor David Hanson is one of the last TRUE intellectuals of our time. Indeed a treasure worth listening to.
uhh... these are a couple of right-wing reactionary pseudo-intellectuals...
Professor Hanson validates all of my questions and American values. Thank you sir.
😅
Thank you! Great interview. I hope dissatisfied Mexican Americans and African Americans will then vote for Trump. Trump shows the most empathy than any previous Republican..and he's real about it
Most astute, sharpest commentator on the American political scene: Victor Davis Hanson.
He is amazing.
Agree. Every time I see an interview piece, it's time to take a break and enjoy it. A voice of sanity, rationality and hope.
Nicholas Nietzsche well said... I can listen to VDH all day...
I totally agree with you, Nicholas.
Agree. Wish he had fixed his bent glasses frame before the interview. :-)
I live about 400 miles south of VDH in a suburb of Los Angeles. I would like to think that we are tired of the left and disgusted by the violence and looting. I would love to see a red tsunami in the upcoming elections but American politics are unpredictable, never would I have imagined Trump being elected in 2016 but I’m grateful that he was. The world needs this man.
I believe the November election will be a "red tsunami" and I keep wondering when the majority of Californians will have had enough of the incompetent politicians running, and ruining, your state.
John Wilson
My state is overwhelmingly woke and I cannot see why. Families and businesses are leaving. Not so golden here anymore in this once red state.
He was just the right man for the job at this point in history. I wouldn’t change a thing about him. We needed a wrecking ball and that’s what he is
No we don't need that turd. Don't talk about the world.America is not the world. Print that in your head.
@Rose Fincher most do you are bullying other countries.
Extraordinarily brilliant man, Mr Hanson, and lucid in his exposition.
I'm a simple man....I see a Victor David Hanson interview, and I subscribe and watch...What a brilliant mind, I have a signed copy of his book "The Case for Trump" sitting prominently on my bookshelf.
That's exactly why I subscribed as well!
Victor Davis Hansen is a template for a really, really wise and morally upright and benevolent man.

Victor Davis Hanson has the courage that is missing in todays Journalist, Historians, he is Awesome!!!!
We must stand up against CCP. WWG1WGA.
I concur
as this conversation points out. It is everybody, not just journalists and historians.
And knowledge that is missing.
Agree.
Hi Mr. Hanson - Thank you for having this insightful discussion with John Anderson. I learned a lot and crystalized my opinions from hearing you speak.
One thing I'd like to address about your comments that is not so complimentary is your opinion of Trump as a person. Maybe when you talk about his personality traits, you are describing what the "Left" focuses on, but I think you also feel the same way. I'm not wanting to persuade you to think otherwise, I just want you to know that a lot of people, including me, find him refreshing!
Trump is not an eloquent speaker by any means, but that's what is so appealing about him to so many people after decades and decades of slick-speaking politicians. I don't care about his sentence structure, the range of his vocabulary, or the depth of his intellect. What I do care about is when he speaks, I feel it. I know what he means. I see it in his face, I hear it in his voice, I understand his heart, and I believe him! He is transparent and sincere. Even when he's exaggerating or boasting, he knows he's doing it and he doesn't try to hide it or make you believe it! The press don't get that! Instead, they fact check him! Idiots. He's warm, authentic and optimistic. He loves people and he loves the United States of America! I agree that Trump can be crude at times, but generally not in front of an audience. I've never heard a filthy tirade come out of his mouth like I have with other politicians.
The other point I'd like to make is that millions of people LOVE Donald Trump. (I cringe when you say that people just tolerate him and will dump him when his usefulness is gone. Only certain people will do that. Elites, politicians, users. But they are of no value to him other than what they can do for him to further his cause, so it's mutual. It's a very organic approach for someone from New York who grew up in the Bronx, don't you think? It's not how I live my life nor a philosophy I would recommend, but it's who he is. I respect him for that.)
To the common man (and a few others), he is a hero, and American hero, and true Americans don't forget their heroes. He is a patriot. He will always belong with other patriots. He is a man of the people. Real people (the likes of me vs the likes of politicians, Hollywood, intellectuals, etc.) will always honor him for what he's done. He is the man who said out loud what we don't have a voice to say-no more of this insanity! He is the man who has sacrificed what we don't have and never will possess - his ease, his comfort, his wealth, his standing - to take up our cause and fight for us, to fight for our rights, our freedoms, our families, our traditions, our laws, our American way of life, our Judeo-Christian society and our God.
You'll probably never see this comment, but that's ok. I feel better for having written it, and every time I hear you say something derogatory about Donald Trump, I will feel better for having stood up for him, even if I'm the only one that knows.
So very grateful for such an honest, down to earth conversation. With all going on around us, so nice to hear a vital talk without the rhetoric, hatred and condemnation. I wish every American could hear this before Nov 3.
Victor Davis Hanson is a remarkable intellect. This is one of the most lucid and courageous discussions I've had the privilege of hearing. Thank you!
For sure-on point.
goes without saying ...it takes one to know one.....deep thinker that is.....
are you serious? he might me a intellect however this man is a coward he is afraid to speak the truth because most likely he lose his platform. there is a giant dark elephant in the room that he his purposely neglecting
@@Rick-tf4dl they forgot to put you on the reject pile.
ANOTHER IGNORANT LEFTIST TROLL
VDH is without a doubt the most lucid, cogent speaker in the U.S. He has an uncanny ability of summarizing any situation from a birds eye level and explaining it so as to be understood by all. Brilliant man. Incredibly important man.
Agree
Exactly, exactly right. A farm boy. Genius level. His MOTHER was a judge (this was pre-feminism days)
Although I respect him very much I remember his support of George W. Bush who clearly lied this nation into a war. I think that is an error on his part. I do agree on his statements on Obama, although I'm not all that familiar with them. I certainly agree with his assessment of Donald Trump.
agree ... I wish he would run for office
Tomacho El Guero you said it, bucko.👍😊
I fondly remember the time I traveled hours to see VDH speak in the rural town of Visalia, and got to chat with him afterwards. He's my favorite classicist, historian, and public intellectual. I am grateful to him mostly for introducing me to the Classics, it changed my life. I wish you the best VDH.
SO VERY GOOD!!!! VICTOR IS A ALL AMERICAN PATRIOT........BLESS THIS GUY.....SO WELL SPOKEN.....AMERICAN PATRIOT!!!!
I wonder why they don’t have Victor Davis Hanson on CNN. I’m kidding. Yes, I do.
because CNN doesn't want to hear the truth or project the truth to the american people..because they hate the bad orange man and the american voters
They can’t handle the truth
CNN has brian skelter......I arrest my case.
Sonia Estevez Yes; the 16 year plan to take down America with Hillary performing mop-up duties. Trump sure put a crimp in their plan😏☺️
He uses big words and unfamiliar truth. Oh, and logic...
VDH rocks. John Anderson is a terrific interviewer too.
Best I've seen. Anderson poses insightful questions, makes pertinent comments and allows for a expanded response.
Thank you Christopher.
@@JohnAndersonConversations You are very welcome.
Keep on keeping on, John. I am a big fan of what you do.
@Enteraname I agree.
Take a straighter, stonger course, to the corner of your li - ife...
Oh wait,
Wrong john anderson 🙄
Trump needs to bring Mr. Hanson into his cabinet. He would be a great special spokesperson and/or adviser.
The real tragedy of the Trump Presidency was how FEW GOOD MEN/WOMEN AND TRUE stepped up to assist in the Republican cause. In contrast so many RINOS.
The truth is always refreshing to see and hear. Lies are always the precursor to confusion and discourse. Thanks guys!
This was an epic discussion. Professor Hanson is an intellectual giant.
It's not his intellect that impresses me but his wisdom
Eltyo - He is a Classicalist Agrarian Intellectual. Very uncommon combo these days. Modern day Thomas Jefferson, perhaps?
Thanks you Douglas.
Victor used a word with disconcerting frequency in this conversation, 'fear'. This can not be so. We have to embody our hero path now.

A full hour with with Victor Davis Hansen? What a treat!
From the U.K., this is one of the best videos I have seen, thanks.
John Anderson is right when he says: "I don't think that appeasement and a basement work anymore...". And a few days ago, I signed a petition against defunding Seattle Police Department because I don't want to live in a lawless city.
Fret not. You ARE the majority!
Better get ready because when the police go, the MP's will step in. Then martial law will be proclaimed, _habeas corpus_ suspended and orders given: shoot-to-kill.
Get gender studies and race studies and women studies OUT OF ALL educational institutions!
Indeed, any discipline with the word “studies” in the title.
And the social institutions. So many are social workers.
And Maths
@@gizellelewis9866 I'm not American, but even back in the early 70's a mate told me that there were more Social Workers in New York than Unemployed - maybe even literally so. All this stuff was always a festering disease and today it's rapidly displaying full blown symptoms. It seems - so far - to be the case that America, though a martial society and armed to the teeth, is incapable of defending the essentials of its nationhood. Perhaps it is that how this contradiction is resolved is the key issue.
@@gizellelewis9866
And the social workers mean well.
VDH is a national treasure.
He is a Natural Californian. Who says CA doesn’t have genius Conservatives
With respect, I would say International treasure.

California must be hell for a man like this. I like that he specified "rural" California. 🤭
He talks about his hometown during the interview for his book, The Case For Trump-he does not sound like he has dislike for the Mexicans - he was talking about how the left let them come in droves into the city he currently lives in. It was amazing to listen to him - I had to play it several times to understand him. When they arrived in the mass numbers, they had no money, no education, could not speak English, no skills- on and on. It created havoc in that area.
The people causing the problem unfortunately have a loud voice however they underestimate the power of the silent majority and the willing to fight.
@Lycan Please. Insecurities are loud, silence is confidence. like Miduv82, they've underestimated it.
@Isa it will be the weak minded degenerates rioting in the cities, majority of the population will be fine.
@@boomdos4265 Please, what is Miduv82?
@Jonathan Taylor join the leftists lol. The ones who seek to destroy our economy and livelihood?
@Lycanthe majority of cattle never wanted to get driven to slaughter, but it only took a few people to drive them to slaughter.
The moral to the story is: majorities mean nothing. it's always tiny little minority groups that wind up controlling millions.
As someone who wasted his youth on a worthless law degree, I can tell you that the US has way too many lawyers, and way too many law schools. The job market for lawyer collapsed about 10 years ago, and law schools responded by pushing social justice activism as a recruitment tool. They're training movie lawyers, instead of real ones, and jacking up tuition to ridiculous levels. The graduates come out financially ruined, propagandized, and barely employable. I repaid my loans by leaving the field and working construction, and I wish I'd never wasted my time on it. They send me alumni donation request forms, trumpeting their new social justice initiatives.
We all make mistakes. Best that we learn something along the way.
Yes over-supply of the deeply-indebted. We've seen this in the acting profession for centuries, maybe 80% sector unemployment due to insufficient demand for such a size of service provider pool. More recently the growth of university "education" has created similar rats-in-a-sack situations resulting in both XR and WuFlu reaction - who controls the limited funding gets the science they want, when there are so many grads chasing their academic career dreams and willing to comply, wittingly or not.
When people can't resolve their differences without involving lawyers, it's a sign of civilisation decline in my opinion.
So sorry on so many levels.
How about sending donation money to the Mike Rowe programs?
Victor Davis Hanson, a national treasure!
Thank you, John Anderson!! Great format, great interview, two natural leaders!
Wow I can listen to this guy all day. So intellectual so interesting.
Thanks John. I'd go to my mother in laws house to hear Victor speak!
Raw Prawn High praise indeed. 👍

So glad he’s back from vacation
Absolutely.
👍the best, I need to hear it all again . . .and again !
me too
Re engineer the universities ..... This is looooong overdue. STEM must find investment. This man is incredibly insightful.
Plenty of free courses even on TH-cam to get trained up in stem no degree required to get a job in stem
@@joebonsaipoland Not in the engineering world I live in.
God how I love VDH!!! He is an intellectual rock star. He can dissect the most complex ideas and issues of the day and with his sublime calm and self control in the purest, clearest most rational and yet simple and basic terms and make the best case for anything he’s talking about. It is people like him that should be revered in our society not idiot celebrities and athletes
Couldn’t agree more ‼️
My opinion exactly! When he's on TV, they cut him off before he can even state his case. He has much depth and truth and is clear-headed. Thank you.
Yes VDH is pure gold and a national treasure.
Excellent interview, seemed much faster than one hour. VDH is a rare breed, we need more like him.

Second...
Thank you for having Victor on your show Andersen...
He is incredibly important during these trying times and... very few, if anyone in the IDW would give his voice a mic...
Thank you again kind sir...
Why do you think that? (About the IDW )
Conservatives give him a mic.
John Forbes “The last capitalist will be hung with rope bought at his store!” Lenin
@@christinezaslavsky647
Idk.
1. I've heard him falsely being labeled a NeoCon.
2. He doesn't have that kind of "Liberal Intellectual elite" culture that shapes his mannerisms...
3. He's Old America.... Pragmatic instead of Idealistic. He has a very reasoned and yet simplistic view of America.
4. He wrote a Book defending Trump.
These are my assumptions only.
@@christinezaslavsky647
I also think some of them, not all, don't want to deal with some of his arguments on things like immigration...
Powerful interview imo
th-cam.com/video/JEd2TEzM0vw/w-d-xo.html
This was incredible. Best description of the current conditions I've ever heard.
Love Dr Hanson, his views are incredible.
Surely you mean they are credible.
“Incredible”???
Thank you John & Victor. Wonderful to listen to a respectful intelligent logical discussion. Don’t worry the Silent Majority have raised their head & are listening & waiting to respond accordingly. Most people have learnt lessons from history & are not about to go back to the future...
We allowed everyone to bring their culture here and now we have people who want to change America structure and values.
They want to recreate their homelands here rather than become American... my street is filled with garbage just like the “developing nation” I lived in previously...
@@karamlevi then pay someone to clean the streets.
But duh socialism is bad!
@@karamlevi you feel the heat
Allowing everyone to bring their culture here and selfishly spread it everywhere only shows that you had no faith in the value of your own culture. When you have a home, where things are tidy and in order, and peaceful and brotherly, would you let any vandal enter and do as they please? Rip your garden to shreds, make your living room so dirty that you can't recognize it anymore? No? You would not? Well, your country experienced just that. How about inviting people to come here and adopt and share your values, not detract them? Don't be surprised at the results.... ignorance of the ground rules has its own way of biting back! When a person migrates to another, foreign country, I would expect them to be grateful to be let in. I would expect them to learn how we live, the language we speak, the cultural values we hold dear. That seems natural and normal to me. I would also expect them to pull their share of responsibility and work for our collective, and not let them siphon off all the welfare systems available, just because they can.
Canada will not let anyone enter who can't support themselves. They are right about that.
the so-called multi-culturalisim was just anotheer scam of the cult running N America. it was done in order to break down international boundries for the purpose of creating a one world Gov.
To oversimplify: If V.D. Hanson speaks, I want to be there to hear what he says!
I find VDH a refreshing conservative who is respected for his expertise and respectful dialogue.
why are there not more intelligent articulate conservative commentators able to analyse so incisively as Dr Hanson? Brilliant.
M. K. Walter Williams and Thomas Sowell are in VDH’s class.
MK~ Marxist Censorship has overtaken the majority of publish~ ing and media outlets. If Inform~ ation is Censored Reality Disappears . . .
Viola!
They don’t have the balls to do anything that they are actually responsible for
VDH also great on Hoover Institute. Always worth a watch
Oh yes deepest respect and admiration for him from the first moment I heard him speak.Just a thought could it have a something to do with his farming background and quiet times communing with nature?Same with John Anderson. Without farmers you do know we could all be dead belly up in the water quite quickly!
Go
Leftist control of media, universities, unions, public institutions is a huge concern.
A genuine conversation is an edifying delight! Thank you, gentlemen!
"Our elite are Intellectually and Morally suspect." 13:32 No truer words were ever spoken.
This is a tremendous interview. So timely. Love that Mr. Anderson gave time for Dr. Hanson's thoughtful responses and elaboration. So much of what we typically see in interviews is hopscotching from one weighty question to another like some sort of lightning round of questions on a game show. I am very glad to have watched.
Michele M - Anderson is a great interviewer and a true gentleman!!
To Victor Davis Hanson : WE THE PEOPLE WILL PREVAIL. God help us all.
My Native/American people, not so long ago in our Nation's history, were treated with disdain by Euro-Americans who held racist views towards us, and we tolerated all their hatred and disgusting views, in order to survive. Even after they cut our hair, changed our clothing, our language and beliefs, we still stood tall against them, and placed our Faith in Our Lord, who some termed The Great Spirit, or Great White Spirit because of His Radiance. We refused to bow down to other human beings and treat them as Dieties, above us, as if Royalty by birth, or skin tone. For us to see our Caucasian brothers and sisters kneeling down to another race, kissing their feet, literally, and/or performing some similar denigrating act that says they are less and the person of a darker tone is better, is a shameful and disgusting thing to see. We don't understand how a race that built so much in our Nation, fought so many bloody wars for equality, submit themsleves to such humiliation! Why? - Why do you do these things? Have you lost your sense of human pride? Some of us, especially myself, being part Caucasian, Pray for these lost Souls, and Pray that the brave and wise ones who refuse the leftist humiliating tactics will continue to never take their knees to the ground for anyone other than Our Lord, and will save our Nation from the far left that wishes only to destroy and dismantle America's Freedoms and Liberties for all way of life. God Bless America.........
@Christs Revenge You do have a point! I work in law, and am so impressed with everything the Israel Government does for its' citizens. We may end up there if things here get to the point where we are living in a country like Orwell's 1984, or like the book Farenheight 451? I Pray all the true Patriots get their proverbial acts together......God Bless!
I’m so glad there are people like Victor Davis Hanson and Niall Ferguson in the US to speak for sanity, and people like you to give them an audience.
But there are strict limits to this.
Niall Ferguson is an academic and vulnerable to mob pressure in universities
@Jeannie Seibert I wonder how long that will last.

Too bad the problem is opportunity-hoarding by our blue-bloods going back a long-long time. Vast majority of Americans, like 90%+, die in the same tax bracket born to : can we finally let Horatio and his boot-straps die? Are we not content with how the 1% treat us?

Thank you Victor Hanson and Guest.
Terrific! Excellent! Spot on! Scary! Eloquent. Essential 'take' or 'give' by such a superb scholar and mediator, VDH. Thank you so much John for your style and great sense in interviewing. I'm proTrump and somehow, at some point months ago i suddenly realised i was grateful for him. I woke up - in the correct sense of that little word. The end of that damn ignorant deceitful 'long march' has got to stop! Extremes do nothing for the human condition - only barbarism is born. THANK YOU JOHN.
Dude I recently "woke up" and it's strange hearing the stuff Trump says without the leftist filter over my ears. He actually makes sense in his own weird way and I really do hope more people wake up to the antics of the dems before it's too late
Good for you, Julie. I'm a socially liberal middle-class professional and people can't believe I support Trump. But I do, for all his flaws (and everyone has 'em but me). People at work also can't believe I challenge axioms of white privilege and "anti-racism", which I do - carefully, but I do. You can.
Thanks for the support Julie.

When I was young the expression "it's a free country" was common. People meant it, believed it and were proud of it. For decades now I have very rarely heard it. Few believe it. Their tongue wouldn't turn in their mouth to say it. If freedom is mentioned it is more often to sneer at it .

This is a brilliant conversation. It takes two to converse. Thank you so much. I was struck most by Victor Davis Hanson's observation about those concentrated group of Americans who benefitted from globalization and those most other Americans who did not.
Love Victor Davis Hanson. And also John Anderson.
Listening to Dr. Hanson feels a bit like seeing into the future. Sometimes you pray his predictions are wrong though because they are so alarming to think on.
Isn't the internet a beautiful thing, having access to great thinkers, being able to straighten out our thinking, all from the convenience of our lounge chairs. Apart from the virus, we've never had it so good and as Trump says 'the best is yet to come'.
Yeah. Imagine if he took the virus seriously.
orions shoe he is
@@orionsshoe2424 I hope you understood all that he said.
What an uplifting thought: The best is yet to come....! President Trump is a cheerleader without equal!
I don't agree. Technology may have enabled us to laugh, and the image in the Silent Age was nearly always comedic. But now technology has usurped entertainment and become an end in itself. The technology advertises itself by the damage it does, such as Twitter and the career-ruining tweet.
Imagine that by some quirk of physics, sound could still not be married to the moving image. Surely the mullahs in Iran would be rolling in the aisles laughing their heads off at their own modern-day Charlie Chaplin or Laurel & Hardy equivalents (with the women giving back as good as the men!). What films other than comedy could you make in such circumstances?
The imagery of violence and gloom and the negativity of frivolous cynical humour that abounds on the internet has led humanity up the garden path: and we don't know how to return to .... mere entertainment. We used to know how to laugh. Our forebears would be ashamed of us now with our glut of misery guts so-called new visual entertainment and our obsession with the ridiculously tiny, tyrannical screens that are our constant companions. Don't you think that we have forgotten how to laugh at the same things because the internet has made culture a swamp?
Look at the video games market. Forget having any future guitar maestros: otherwise talented kids are spending hours, days and days playing ridiculously repetitive video games. And if the Mullahs ever needed a jaunty live piano sound to lift the occasion of their Silent movie, there are currently thirty million people learning to play the piano in China. Will the United States run out of church organists in twenty years' time? It may have to look abroad!
If we don't even retain an appetite for comedy, we will lose our civilisation very fast.
Would that all Americans could listen to Dr. Victor DAvis Hanson
Some of us appreciate the gunfighter, for what he's is, and what he can do!
We are in a war and most dont even know.
Exactly! This has been the case since 1949. People are just too polite to recite the litany of the C.C.P. s crimes. It is no friend of ours.

I agree, but would you care to elaborate? I’m curious
It’s a culture war, not racial. Which values will win.
You have been in war almost every year since WW2...
I have been making that exact statement for a year or so
Dr. Hanson succinctly articulates the reasons we are witnessing the net migration to "red states", unprecedented firearms sales and the panic buying of ammunition in the United States.
I am learning more and more what is happening in america, i enjoyed listening to the interview.
Victor Davis Hanson is one of my favorite speakers.
Isn’t a shame that most of us would rather cower in fear of being called a racist rather than standing up and speaking the truth and how we feel.
Yes it really is and dare I say it is just downright disgusting.
@@bluewrenreilly129 yeah disgusting ain't it? That girl was so courageous saying all lives matter she got shot dead! More should speak up eh?
everyone was afraid of the the brownshirts ....antifa?..... black lives?...burning our flag?
Michael Ferenczy let me guess, Canadian? Here in America we still believe in standing up for our rights and yes, no matter the consequences.
Yes ma'am it is... "All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power not truth" Friedrich Neitzsche... Be aware also in this time of conflict and struggle for ones beliefs... "Extreme positions are not succeeded by moderate ones, but buy contrary extreme ones" Friedrich Neitzsche... Time to test the merit of our soul while we still have a choice
Very much enjoyed this very important and scary interview. You (two) have performed enormous public and civilizational service. Heart felt thanks.
Thank you for the encouragement Don.
Appreciate you both! Such incredible information, thank you.
THANK YOU VICTOR. EXCELLENT DISERTATION.

This whole racial issue is fake the rioters are an insurrection paid for by the Chinese.
@@JourneyOfStrength I have seen it all my adult life, incrementally built up to "figuring it out" on my own. Thanks anyway. I wish the best for you my informative friend. :)
Doug from Michigan.
Always a great interview, VDH gives; he is one to listen to...
Thank you Sheila.
We watch Victor on Fox and love him! We had a great culture. Mr. Hanson helps explain where it went. Let's bring it back!
he's spot on with the NBA hypocrisy!! why people can't grasp that is astonishing!!
Their viewership is in the toilet.
VDH is an absolute hero!What a scholar and educator.Ive learned so much from him.Thanks so much for inviting him.Long live the Anglosphere.
Great interview. Thank you
Thank you Nathan.
I agree that what happens between now and November will really determine who we are as a people and nation. It's an awakening of the giant once more.
I wish there was a way to get everyone in AMERICA to listen to this!
15 years ago i was denied entry into Grad School and was told "The University and the Biology Department receive grants and bonus' based on number of Chinese students admitted." This was in small town, southern New Mexico. I can only imagine how it is in larger cities and Universities.
Wow, I had never heard that before. Thanks for sharing that.
Brother they are not the one to blame
Beck W 哈哈哈
The only reason possible, aside from grades,is the National Laboratories at Santa Fé. The Chinese are sending select students overseas (N.Mex.)for industrial espionage purposes to infiltrate US Institutions. These students belong to the Secret Services of the CCP.
Yes, each individual must stand up for what they believe.
@Anders Anderson 😁
Victor Davis Hanson. Brilliant
Very sharp analysis. “He who doesn't understand history is doomed to repeat it.” Thank you
The backlash against "progessivism" and movements like "BLM" will be enormous. The reality is that such movements survival Depends on the tolerance of the majority. How long will that last?
They need to be destroyed now 😐

V.D.H. IS ONE OF THE MOST ASTUTE & ARTICULATE YET MODEST PEOPLE I HAVE COME ACROSS..WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A TRANSCRIPT..
Make one and share it around. Spread the word
2 GREAT GUYS - OBJECTIVE, LUCID, UNBIASED, INFORMED, TRUTH-SEEKERS, REALISTIC, ERUDITE, INTELLIGENT, ASTUTE - MORE OF EACH ONE, PLEASE.
Dr DAVIS would be a Historic Secretary if State or President He is so knowledgeable in World and National History! I enjoy listening to his speeches and I have come to appreciate our Construction so much more by listening to him!
Excellent conversation! Thank you! Please - more people need to see this!
VDH? A farm boy. Genius level. His MOTHER was a judge (this was pre-feminism days).
Sigh...
Nostalgia
Nietzsches Power ....many a farm boy became geniuses.
His Dad was B29 pilot conducting numerous missions over Japan during the second world war.

Also if I recall correctly, VDH is named after his uncle who fought in WW2. All around interesting chap from a very interesting family.
One of the most straightshooting men out there. Great interview.
Спасибо Вам mr Hanson!
