Trump Has a Boomer Problem In 2024 – But He Can Fix It

The Trump realignment of American politics was defined by his ability to appeal to lower-income and less educated Americans who previously were out of reach for the GOP. Now, poll numbers show that demographic souring on MAGA. What’s driving this and can anything stop it? Chris Rufo talks about how to win the messaging on cost of living and reacts to a hilarious academic scandal in Britain. Then, Peachy Keenan responds to AOC freezing her eggs and two men who hope to gatecrash the WNBA.

A lot is said about the crisis facing American young men, but America’s young women are in a crisis of their own — including young women who consider themselves conservative and Christian. At Dream City Church in 2024, Charlie talks to Allie Beth Stuckey about “toxic empathy,” the dangers of self-love and self-empowerment, and how they can quickly become self-delusion.

The Thoughtcrime team assembles for a long and dramatic discussion about $20 burritos, and then takes a fond look back at Charlie getting parodied on South Park exactly one year ago.

Allie Beth Stuckey is one of the most effective voices in the public square touting genuine Christian orthodoxy, so Charlie was eager to team up with her. In their joint appearance at Freedom Night in America two years ago, the two take audience questions on parenting, college, standing true to their beliefs, and of course, caffeine. They discuss the many ways that modern comforts can become idols as dangerous as any old pagan god, and explain why the true sources of wealth aren’t measured in dollars.
