Summary

Don sits down with friend of the show and political analyst Mike Nellis to unpack a growing pattern within parts of the MAGA movement where some of the loudest voices policing others’ identities are now facing scrutiny of their own. They discuss the culture of projection, the politics of personal identity, and why so many public figures feel compelled to attack others while keeping parts of their own lives hidden. Is it hypocrisy, strategy, or something deeper driving it all? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
