Summary

The mere mention of the Tate Brothers in today’s daily discourse is usually enough to split a room down the middle, but until recently, this split would reveal who was conservative and who was liberal. But now, there’s a growing rift amongst the MAGA movement on whether Andrew and Tristan Tate’s brand of chauvinistic masculinity really does align with conservative values. The reason? Both the Tate brothers have been charged with crimes as heinous as sexual assault and sex trafficking in both the UK and Romania. Conservatives do generally believe that men should lead women, but surely, not be blatantly violent towards them? For a debate that pits conservative against conservative, Piers Morgan asks host of 'TMP Uncensored' Zack Bonfilio AKA The Misfit Patriot, former caporegime of the NY Colombo crime family Michael Franzese, author and lawyer Alan Dershowitz, Donald Trump’s former attorney Jenna Ellis and journalist at Slightly Offensive.com Sarah Stock for their takes on the Tates.
