Summary

Glenn sits down with the creative mind behind the viral video that exposed AOC as a political “actress.” Christopher Kohls, better known as “Mr. Reagan,” once took a crack at Hollywood, only to settle for YouTube fame. In this interview, Mr. Reagan brings his unique blend of creative storytelling, Ronald Reagan-era conservatism, and journalism to the year’s biggest stories. Hear of his struggles with online censorship, the opportunistic nature of capitalism, and – of course – the Justice Democrats: why they formed, what they’re doing, and how the Democratic civil war fits right in.
