Care to expand on the ad hominem further?

You can absolutely say that he talks a lot and doesn’t throw himself into the political arena by running for office, union/community organizing, etc but he’s a political commentator. Contextualizing and analyzing current political events is 100% his lane.

All the chatter about him as the ‘left’s answer to Joe Rogan’ fails to understand that the DNC doesn’t want him, because they wolnt abandon neoliberalism and defense of institutions above all else. They’d rather pump Pod Save America where they can reliably get softball questions pitched and the party messaging transmitted at listeners
