Today on the Matt Walsh Show, with all of these very deep ideological and cultural divides,

0:04.7

are we on the verge of a civil war? A lot of people are talking about this and seem to think we're

0:10.1

headed in that direction, but are we? We'll talk about that. Also, how old is too old to be

0:15.2

president? Should there be an age limit on the presidency? And finally, what does it mean to say

0:20.5

that the Bible is the inspired word of God? This obviously is what Christians say, but what does

0:25.8

that mean exactly, practically speaking? We'll talk about that as well today on the Matt Walsh Show.

0:35.1

Well, you've heard the old Knarid probably having you about how a movement, if it sticks around

0:40.8

too long, it will eventually become a business and then it goes from a business into a racket.

0:47.2

And I think that that has proven correct over history. It is certainly true of the so-called

0:55.7

never-Trump movement. Now, never Trump meant something. It served a purpose in the campaign,

1:03.3

especially in the primaries. The idea was very simple. Trump cannot be the nominee. We cannot

1:08.0

support Trump as a nominee. That was the idea. But as you may remember, he did become the nominee

1:16.4

and then he became president. So it makes no sense to still identify as never-Trump

1:22.7

when Trump is the president. What does that even mean now? It's not a matter of voting anymore. He's

1:30.5

already there. So never Trump never what? Never Trump what? Never what is it that you're never

1:36.3

doing in regards to Trump? The only thing that makes sense now, now that he's president. And this has

1:43.3

been my strategy for the last two years. I think it's the only honest path forward, the only rational

1:51.1

path forward. And that is to hold Trump accountable like we should for any president, any politician,

1:57.6

to criticize him when he's wrong and to support him when he's right. And that again is what we should

2:03.3

do for any politician, any president. And it is the only morally and intellectually defensible path.

2:09.7

Any path aside from that is absurd. Now some former so-called never-Trumpers, myself included,

2:23.7

although I never really liked that label, but I would have been lumped in with that category
