In a world where political landscapes are rapidly changing, Daniel Jupp brings forth a fresh perspective on populism, the role of Donald Trump, and the impact of the media on politics. He argues that populism is not a menace but a representation of the views, opinions, and values of the common man.

The Shift in Political Focus
Over the years, there has been a significant shift in the focus of political parties. The left, traditionally seen as the champion of the working class, has shifted its focus from class to race. It has aligned itself with radical social ideas and the super-rich, leaving the working class feeling unheard and unrepresented.
On the other hand, the right, which once held strong ties to patriotism and defended the interests of ordinary people, has abandoned these principles. This abandonment has created a vacuum, leading to the rise of populism.
Donald Trump: The Populist
Donald Trump emerged as a populist leader, not by design but by instinct. He naturally acquired the taste, interests, and belief system of ordinary people, representing a break from the traditional political class. His connection with the working class made him a target of disdain for the elite. Bill Gates, on the other hand, comes from old money and inherited a set of Democrat, socialist hypocrisies.
The Role of Trump in the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic was a testing time for leaders worldwide. Trump, according to Jupp, was deceived by his advisers and the medical establishment, leading to his support of lockdowns and rushed vaccine development. Despite this, Jupp supports Trump, believing that he never intentionally harms the ordinary person.
Equality Before the Law
In a functioning democracy, equality before the law is a fundamental principle. However, Jupp argues that this principle is being eroded. He points to the disparity in how people are treated for expressing similar views. Some can potentially be sent to prison for saying an election was stolen, while others can openly claim the same without consequences. This, according to Jupp, is a sign of unacknowledged tyranny.
Brexit and its Aftermath
Brexit was also discussed, with Jupp noting that the UK got a watered-down version of Brexit and still has one leg in the EU trap. However, he believes that the moment of ordinary person rebellion was worth it, as it exposed the corrupt means by which the ruling class and the mechanisms of government try to crush such movements.
The Media’s Role in Politics
The media plays a crucial role in shaping political outcomes. Jupp discusses how the media targeted politicians like Boris Johnson, who was 90% their man but still had a 10% unpredictable streak. The media went after Johnson for things that Keir Starmer did at the same time in the same way, indicating their desire to control the narrative.
The Muslim Threat in Western Countries
Jupp brings to light the issue of the Muslim threat in Western countries. He focuses on the lack of religious reformation and the refusal to acknowledge the extent of the problem. He highlights the attitudes of the religion and the absence of change in those attitudes over time. Jupp also points to the presence of two-tier justice in Muslim communities and the influence of Islamic culture in Western societies, as exemplified by the Dune film.
The Islamic Problem in Western Countries
According to Jupp, the Islamic problem is enormous in Western countries because of the millions of people invited in without changing their attitudes …
