(6,270 posts)25. I watch BM as he is not afraid to step out of echo chamber
and openly question things, stupid or not, he doesnt have to be right. He is a fierce democrat who is correct to ridicule some of the stupidest, self defeating slogans coming out from some dems like abolish the police, forgive all student debt, etc. Establishment dems know he is on to something when speaker Pelosi is highlighting Eric Adams as great at messaging. BM is a huge fan of Eric Adams. BM has been trying hard to figure out the right messaging for dems to reach out to rural America. We need to be thinking like gop when it comes to elections and focus 100% on winning only, not freaking policy (that comes later).

He was always an asshole. That's a trait that can work for his "call it as I see it" comedy...

I've noticed that as well. For a "liberal", he sure seems to have a lot of hate...
