"I think we should have a different standard for like random voters, marginal voters, who are not so engaged with politics, right? Who, it's not their job to follow the news. They're just trying to put food on the table. But if you are Megyn Kelly, if you are Tucker Carlson, if you are any of these people whose job it is to be a professional pundit and you didn't see a version of this coming, I'm sorry, I do not feel bad for you."
"I think your point is valid, which is, anybody who's been following Donald Trump could have at least said he lies about everything. So, this is not going to be new. He's saying this. And I remember this because a lot of people, a lot of Muslim Americans in Michigan wanted Donald Trump just because they did not like Kamala Harris and the positions the Biden administration took about Gaza."
Catherine Rampell critiques conservative podcasters Megyn Kelly and Tucker Carlson for their surprise at Donald Trump's recent criticisms. Trump labeled them and others as 'stupid people' and 'troublemakers' for their stances on the Iran war. Rampell argues that while casual voters may not follow politics closely, professional pundits should have anticipated Trump's actions. Co-host Ayman Mohyeldin adds that many who supported Trump did so based on his promises, despite his history of dishonesty. The conversation highlights the disconnect between Trump's rhetoric and the expectations of his supporters.
