Best Ben video I’ve seen in ages - let’s hold politicians accountable for bad policy, regardless of the party they’re in.

I've lost a lot of respect for right-wing commentators today... so many are peddling the administration's nonsense about reciprocal tariffs. Shapiro is being honest here where others are being partisan.

It's worth gold when a commentator is not just a partisan cheerleader.

World population without United States of America is still approximately 8.1 billions. We can still trade each other. Goodbye Divided States of America.

What makes an American a REAL American is when one can acknowledge that we hold ANY politician accountable regardless of party.

It is profoundly disconcerting that both the House and Senate appear reluctant to challenge Trump, seemingly paralyzed by the gravitational pull of his cult of personality. This hesitancy underscores a troubling prioritization of self-preservation and political tenure over the very constituents who entrusted them with their votes.

I'm not necessarily right-wing but I respect Ben for sticking to his views on this despite the fact that he might have lost quite a few viewers from the Trump side of the right. That kind of integrity will outlast Trump's term in office.

Thank you, Ben, for speaking some truth! Even when a lot of people on right refuse to acknowledge this!

Thank you for speaking up, Ben! We need more voices of reason like yours. U.S. dollar is the global reserve currency—and only the U.S. can print it. To trade globally, other countries need dollars, not just strong economies. That’s why they run surpluses with the U.S.—to accumulate the dollars required for global trade. We're penalizing the world for a system we created.

Panicked here…husband and I own a small import business. Already discussing having to let employees go and tightening our personal purse strings.
