Summary
Tucker Carlson just announced a third party — and the media is using "horseshoe theory" to explain it: go far enough right and you end up on the left, far enough left and you end up on the right. They're wrong. But they're wrong in an *interesting* way — because horseshoe theory is pointing at something real. It just doesn't know what it's looking at. And once we figure out what it's actually looking at, Tucker's move makes complete sense — and becomes a lot more concerning than the media realizes. So today we're going to cover: - The problem with our two-party system - The horseshoe theory — and whether it's actually correct - What Tucker Carlson's "new party" really represents about where America is right now, and what we should do about it - Plus the one thing missing from all of these political philosophies SPONSOR: American Financing High prices on everything from gas to groceries make high-interest credit card debt even harder to carry.
