Summary

In this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” a Daily Signal original, Hanson discusses the significant media and public opinion shifts following the Nov. 5 presidential election through the inauguration. “There's been a whole change of mentality from the trivial to the existential. We can't quite believe that. Mika and Joe Scarborough made a religious journey, as it is, to Mar-a-Lago. Snoop Dogg once cut a film about shooting Donald Trump. Now he has endorsed him. And that is true all over the media. They just fired the head of MSNBC. Now we also learn these disclosures. Why now?” “I think people as they look back, they think we were in a coma. We were drugged. This was a aberration. Maybe it was the COVID lockdown. Maybe it was the George Floyd. Maybe it was the hatred of Donald Trump. Maybe—I don't know what it was, but it was a four-year aberration.” For Victor's latest thoughts, go to: https://victorhanson.com/ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
