Care to answer this question : "The Role of PTSD in History" Hitler was an abused child. Marx was an abused child. Stalin was an abused child. Putin is an abused child. Their displaced rage from the abuse destroyed their morals. The anger is the disease. Along with the accompanying narcissism.
Exactly, the world view of American politics is inverted to reality. US/NATO strategy of constant foreign wars is not in the interest of America. NATO turned out to be the invader in the world, not the Russians. Most don’t understand politics because they are misinformed, or not informed.
An old problem. "Prudence hath made cowards of us all." When the prophet Isaiah went into hiding, he told God "I'm the last who believes in you." God replied, "There are 6,000 others." Where were those 6,000? Hiding, but waiting, hoping, for the moment they no longer needed to hide. Shakespeare: "A brave man dies but once, a coward many times." Fact: most of us are the 6,000 hiding, dying many times, waiting for the moment it's safe. Fact: Judges dare not be part of the 6,000 -- but they, too, are human. Fact: I'm more often with the cowering 6,000 than with Isaiah. I call it "diplomacy", but in my heart know better.
@@mariahenrich9602That's right...I spent the last 4 years resisting, pushing back and telling people about their constitutional rights. It is a new life style.

This is a fact. I figured this out and I’m doing everything in my power to not be complacent in my personal life. It’s hard when everyone else is complacent.

He is a great thinker, but he will never touch the boomer third rails, such as race. People who think that the USA will resemble anything like today's America if white population drops to 30% are naïve beyond measure.

The middle east showing interest in joining BRICS. And he thinks it was all quiet up to 2020? We could all see what was coming but he thought it was all good!🤣
When Victor Davis Hanson speaks, everyone listens ... he's Brilliant & quite accurate on many important & urgent issues affecting the U.S. I prefer listening to VDH then any news media. God Bless this man for speaking the TRUTH, God help us in the U.S. Love your channel, thank you!
Our political system is analog, our information system digital. Not compatible, not functional. The solution may be the Swiss Model of government: massive decentralization of power, to the local level, where face to face pressure may get something done. The national level of government should be massively reduced. Same reason for Locals.
The reduction of the size of government at the Feferal and local levels and in leveraging technology to replace administrative functions whilst eliminating the duplication of effort, brings us to The Convention of States (Action) - This is the raison d'etre behind the Convention of States (Action) movement: ¤ Term Limits for ALL federal, elected representatives ¤ Reduce the size of the federal government in numbers terms ¤ Cap the amount of money that Congress can spend & impose strict ceilings to budgets through an Amendment to the U.S. Constitution = Codified in Law.

@@3338MAN In Australia I take this further. We were six self governing states who federated in 1901. The federal government was formed to do two things. Severely restrict immigration and to build a navy to defend our border. It's failed on both it's objectives and has no reason to exist anymore.
Fantastic interview fellas! The last statement by Victor Davis Hanson was probably the most foreboding. There is a lethargy in the west created by the prosperity we have enjoyed. Something we ought to be conscious of and guard against.

It remains only us children ever since the Greatest (WW2) Gen has virtually disappeared. They were the last bit of glue holding what was once the USA together.
not if the democrats win. The Right knows there are people still in prison for Jan 6th, and dont' want to go themselves, because they know no one will have their back, so nothing will happen. We have no leadership on the Right that will stand behind us, whereas the leadership of the Left encourages it, and stands behind the perps, will bail them out of jail, etc.
With VDH's first-hand experiences, his vast knowledge of facts, and his ability to see things from a wider perspective than myself, makes him the best person to go to for an honest evaluation of every earth-shattering event our country has, and still is, being subjected to by the current administration and their devastating failed policies, and corruption on an altogether worse level than in our history.
"I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this-who will count the votes, and how." - J.S.
Yup we have lots of these "treasures" on the Right. Too bad they're all just talk, will not run for office, and have no power to do anything about anything. That's all the Right has, or does. We specialize in talk, hundreds of great pundits, who will never run for office, but just badmouth Trump, or anyone who has the nerve to actually run for office. But at this point, it's probably too late anyway. Once they get in office, they're still overwhelmed and outmanned by the deep state and democrats lawlessness, and end up being talking heads at best, that get little to nothing done.
So happy that people are listening to VDH and taking him seriously. He and Thomas Sowell are two minds I would love to have. I've listened to Hanson for years and have always recognized his great mind.
As of 2.22.24, I just finished watching "Band of Brothers" and "The Pacific". When I stop and think of what that generation went through to win WW2 and look at the young people today, it's apples and bowling balls. I'll leave it there.
and think what it's like to be Commonwealth or Europe: the USA didn't even GET INTO the war when 1,000 of people world wide had already spent two or three years in POW camps/forced labour/detention and slave labour. Some survived. Think about THEIR survival skill set.
It's funny that people vote on personalities and not policies . Especially when most politicians are very adept at creating public personalities that do not reflect their private ones.
Why not ask him about this : "The Role of PTSD in History" Hitler was an abused child. Marx was an abused child. Stalin was an abused child. Putin is an abused child. Their displaced rage from the abuse destroyed their morals. The anger is the disease. Along with the accompanying narcissism.
50:51 These are the real things we need to be discussing and we MUST change how we are raising our kids and the expectations and conversations we are having with them. No more extended childhoods!
Victor Hanson Davis must have team to read and investigate . I love what I learn from him. our children need to know the truth. We are praying for that, and telling them the truth. God bless the truth.
The last test of faithfulness is in the fourth commandment KJV that reminds us of Genesis 2:2&3. Jesus is our example EVEN the forty days after His resurrection. It was roman emperor Constantine in 321 A.D. who thought to change God’s times and laws, after generations of Christian persecution. Remember the coliseum?
Listening to Prof. Hanson's account of USA politics has really scared me. It does not get much dirtier. Well, not in the West. "They (the Hard Left) don't have right on their side...". Excellent! "Right", an old-fashioned concept that I like and understand. Prof. Hanson is an eloquent, intelligent and clearly experienced man. I like and respect him a lot.
Everything this guy has said, I told my mother when watching the US election in late 2020. She fired back stating that another Trump presidency would be bad too. I replied that the reason she thought that was because all she listened to was mainstream media. And as sure as night follows day, my predictions of Biden's Left-wing presidency have come true: an unmitigated disaster.
Loved your having Victor Hansen on today. Great guest. He is So knowledgeable. You will be taking your life into your own hands going to Brookland NY in May. Lol Be careful.
Constitutional Republic! Before it was hijacked by traitors, which has been happening for a long time, these traitors have been attempting to restructure Our Government since before WWI!! They attack Our Constitution every chance they can from every side they can, because they know by weakening any part they weaken the whole thing! The government doesn't give Us Out Freedoms or Our Rights, or Liberty, those come from God, to Each And Every One Of Us! The federal government is supposed to keep foreign countries from attacking Us! They have taken upon themselves to monitor, tax, and legislate every facett of Our Lives! The federal government and it's corrupt agencies have become power and wealth driven, and forgot This Is Our Country, and they are public servants that work for Us! Anything they do against We The People, and against Our Constitution is treason.
God bless this man!!! Logic rules! The last white males that had a chance & looked what that chance produced :) Thank you so much Trig. and V. Davis Hanson!!~
This was an incredibly interesting discussion! Thank you Triggernometry! I don’t understand why your channel is not at 10 million+++ by now. Thank you Mr. Hansen.
Gee someone who finally speaks the TRUTH!! When he said that if you are Europe, and you look at us to protect you, you realize that you are going to have to protect yourself. This is why we need to right this situation. We need to protect our grid. We need to prepare.
I shared this speech on Facebook. Apparently their algorithm is preventing people from seeing it. If I posted some tiresome speech by Fidel Castro or Daniel Noriega or Maduro they would probably encourage it. BTW..I am typing this comment from El Salvador where we are currently visiting for the first time. Do not believe what our media are saying..this man is worthy of our respect and we should honor his courage and the courage of the Salvadorian People. We are seeing with our own eyes, firsthand, what liberation from tyranny looks like.
I don't trust my vote will go how I want it. I'll still vote, but I feel I cannot trust the whole system at all. I'm probably going to be disappointed.
I started to listen to this and it was so informative and such truth bombs. I thought id do it just justice and download for later! Thankyou Victor and the absolute realisation that this really is going to be the most important election in the US (as well as dirtiest). On a lighter note i couldnt help noting Victor's beautiful jacket and shirt!!
I heard this the other day and was shocked i never thought about it. We have black history month. We have an indigenous people month. Yet we only have Veterans Day? We wouldn't have either of those month had it not been for our veterans!
The veterans are so mistreated in this country and so are the American citizens because they’re putting illegals first and they’re giving them everything for free while we pay for it on the Americans hard-working backs in taxes inflation debt America’s being changed forever. It is massive
It's time to clean house one way or another. Normal may be boring but it is productive for all mankind. Radicals will come and go, but we have to decide what kind of people we are.
45:36 …anyone else notice the irony here or is it just me? It’s a great statement and this is a fantastic overall discussion (huge fan of VDH). Just thought it was a curious remark coming from supporters of a specific candidate
As a US citizen, I don't live in a "democracy" whatever that is. I 'm living in what is supposed to be a democratically elective constitutional republic. In particular, my country is supposed to be fundamentally a union of 50 soverign states. Almost all of the government should (and originally did) exist at the state and local level. Modulo national defense, more than 99% of the federal administrative state should never have existed. Government agencies should be created (and destroyed) ONLY by the mutual agreement of voter majorities in individual localities or states and possibly by mutual agreement with voter majorities in other localities and states. Gov't structure should never come into existence solely by the action of congress, state legislatures or city councils and MOST CERTAINLY NOT by the action of existing government.
And yet year after year the government just decrees more laws, more beuracracies*, more taxes, more restrictions, more agencies, more power to themselves. We are. FAR cry from what the founding at had intended. They would immediately start another revolution if they came back today. The US should be ashamed at what it’s become.
The States need to repeal the 16th Amendment to take away the money and repeal the 17th Amendment so the States get their responsibility back to check k the federal government

You can check out our last interview with him here! czcams.com/video/cdrlF9iLRso/video.html
Already have but thank you@@triggerpod
@@triggerpod I know you're in the UK, but I think you should take a look at the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025

Outstanding talk!!
VDH sometimes seems like the only adult left in the room in today’s world.
He is one of the few. Thomas Sowell, Douglas Murry and others are still in the fight.
He seems disinterested in this question. "The Role of PTSD in History"
Hitler was an abused child. Marx was an abused child. Stalin was an abused child. Putin is an abused child. Their displaced rage from the abuse destroyed their morals. The anger is the disease. Along with the accompanying narcissism.
@@jackmaher4466 None of them will touch this topic : "The Role of PTSD in History"

He seems like the only neocon in the room but, then John Bolton appears! 🧐
It remains only us children ever since the Greatest (WW2) Gen has virtually disappeared. They were the last bit of glue holding what was once the USA together.
I believe civil disobedience will erupt no matter who is installed as potus.
Amen
not if the democrats win. The Right knows there are people still in prison for Jan 6th, and dont' want to go themselves, because they know no one will have their back, so nothing will happen. We have no leadership on the Right that will stand behind us, whereas the leadership of the Left encourages it, and stands behind the perps, will bail them out of jail, etc.
With VDH's first-hand experiences, his vast knowledge of facts, and his ability to see things from a wider perspective than myself, makes him the best person to go to for an honest evaluation of every earth-shattering event our country has, and still is, being subjected to by the current administration and their devastating failed policies, and corruption on an altogether worse level than in our history.
The best analyst in the country. His warning must be heeded!

Joe Biden said the same thing.
we must watch and CLOSE
@@johnmorrow4719 LOL, that ought to take care of it.
God help us all
such a brilliant gentleman.
Indeed a Scholar....and a Gentleman.
Dr. Hanson, American treasure, wise, kind, and direct. VDH, thank you.
VDH proving once again that he is a national treasure.
Yup we have lots of these "treasures" on the Right. Too bad they're all just talk, will not run for office, and have no power to do anything about anything. That's all the Right has, or does. We specialize in talk, hundreds of great pundits, who will never run for office, but just badmouth Trump, or anyone who has the nerve to actually run for office. But at this point, it's probably too late anyway. Once they get in office, they're still overwhelmed and outmanned by the deep state and democrats lawlessness, and end up being talking heads at best, that get little to nothing done.
I love listening to Victor.
Excellent interview!!! Victor Davis Hanson is the best. 🐕
So happy that people are listening to VDH and taking him seriously. He and Thomas Sowell are two minds I would love to have. I've listened to Hanson for years and have always recognized his great mind.
Yes yes yaaaas, VDH! The adults have officially entered the room!
As of 2.22.24, I just finished watching "Band of Brothers" and "The Pacific". When I stop and think of what that generation went through to win WW2 and look at the young people today, it's apples and bowling balls. I'll leave it there.
😂The young generation of men thst did 3 to 4 tours in Afghanistan are not happy campers!!
Just don’t miss the gaping hole of what came between the Greatest Generation & Millennials, namely: Baby Boomers 🕳️
@@Arbognire yeah, we went to Vietnam!!
@@alandavis9644 I'm talking across the board, for all generations.
and think what it's like to be Commonwealth or Europe: the USA didn't even GET INTO the war when 1,000 of people world wide had already spent two or three years in POW camps/forced labour/detention and slave labour. Some survived. Think about THEIR survival skill set.
Victor Davis Handon is consistently coherent.
I love the way he says he is optimistic about the future keeping an undertaker dead pan expression
It's funny that people vote on personalities and not policies . Especially when most politicians are very adept at creating public personalities that do not reflect their private ones.
Victor you have my respect and I don't like most people!
Mr. Hanson is just the best.
The UK General election is set to be the most catastrophic ever....
Why? Labour is going to win.

That's saying so little it's almost insulting.
Why not ask him about this : "The Role of PTSD in History"

Love me some Victor Davis Hanson.
Brilliant mind who puts all the world 'chaos' into perspective. 🙂
50:51 These are the real things we need to be discussing and we MUST change how we are raising our kids and the expectations and conversations we are having with them. No more extended childhoods!
This is why Trump needs Ramaswamy in the cabinet, or as VP. He can out-finesse these elites.
Great interview, it gives you a lot to think about.
With those policies we want Victor Davis Hanson for president. He said all the things that I've been screaming about for 3 years.
Victor Hanson Davis must have team to read and investigate . I love what I learn from him. our children need to know the truth.
We are praying for that, and telling them the truth. God bless the truth.
The last test of faithfulness is in the fourth commandment KJV that reminds us of Genesis 2:2&3. Jesus is our example EVEN the forty days after His resurrection. It was roman emperor Constantine in 321 A.D. who thought to change God’s times and laws, after generations of Christian persecution. Remember the coliseum?
Steer clear from the colleges! Hit the trades you’ll make way more!
Victor Davis Hanson is incredible. The only sane voice.
Wow, the real conversations are here on this channel!! Raw open and transparent. This was riveting!
I could listen and learn from VDH all day!
Victor Davis Hanson for President 👍👍👍
He should at least be a cabinet member!
It’s not the number of votes that win elections. Its the number of ballots that win determined by those who count them.
Sadly🤮🥶🥵🤑
This country is now a banana republic- freedom was lost without a battle in 2020 with the stolen election
Listening to Prof. Hanson's account of USA politics has really scared me. It does not get much dirtier. Well, not in the West.
"They (the Hard Left) don't have right on their side...". Excellent! "Right", an old-fashioned concept that I like and understand.
Prof. Hanson is an eloquent, intelligent and clearly experienced man. I like and respect him a lot.
One of the sharpest minds I've ever seen.
Everything this guy has said, I told my mother when watching the US election in late 2020. She fired back stating that another Trump presidency would be bad too. I replied that the reason she thought that was because all she listened to was mainstream media. And as sure as night follows day, my predictions of Biden's Left-wing presidency have come true: an unmitigated disaster.
VDH is brilliant.. he speaks.. I listen
This time around they don’t control all of social media.
yes they do
@@dragons10000 yeah this was posted before the Tik Tok ban, scary times indeed.
Loved your having Victor Hansen on today. Great guest. He is So knowledgeable. You will be taking your life into your own hands going to Brookland NY in May. Lol Be careful.
Thank you very much, gentlemen!
Imagine how great it would be if President Trump appointed VHD as a senior advisor!
Guys the USA is not a Democracy we are a Republic
The 2 are not mutually exclusive
‘Burger King is a Fast Food restaurant, not a maker of burgers’
Fascist republic?
Constitutional Republic! Before it was hijacked by traitors, which has been happening for a long time, these traitors have been attempting to restructure Our Government since before WWI!! They attack Our Constitution every chance they can from every side they can, because they know by weakening any part they weaken the whole thing! The government doesn't give Us Out Freedoms or Our Rights, or Liberty, those come from God, to Each And Every One Of Us! The federal government is supposed to keep foreign countries from attacking Us! They have taken upon themselves to monitor, tax, and legislate every facett of Our Lives! The federal government and it's corrupt agencies have become power and wealth driven, and forgot This Is Our Country, and they are public servants that work for Us! Anything they do against We The People, and against Our Constitution is treason.
@@aussiedonaldduck2854 yes their is. democracy is 2 wolves and a sheep votign on diiner. Republic is the shepp contestign the vote
George Orwell's 1984 has arrived. Thank you Victor.
We the people know how bad it is going to be.We had experiance with these crooked people in 2020.
Put the so called elite in prison.
God bless this man!!! Logic rules! The last white males that had a chance & looked what that chance produced :)
Thank you so much Trig. and V. Davis Hanson!!~
This was an incredibly interesting discussion! Thank you Triggernometry! I don’t understand why your channel is not at 10 million+++ by now. Thank you Mr. Hansen.
Another marvelous VDH thinking piece.
Victor is the voice of reason in what is becoming increasingly a weaker United States.
VDH is the Best👏🇺🇸🇺🇸
Gee someone who finally speaks the TRUTH!! When he said that if you are Europe, and you look at us to protect you, you realize that you are going to have to protect yourself. This is why we need to right this situation. We need to protect our grid. We need to prepare.
No problem with that. Europe needs to cut the cord from America. The US is detrimental to Europe and has been since end of WW2
Victor hit everything on point, precisely. It is just as complex as he stated, and it's good to see I'm not the only one that sees this.
I shared this speech on Facebook. Apparently their algorithm is preventing people from seeing it. If I posted some tiresome speech by Fidel Castro or Daniel Noriega or Maduro they would probably encourage it. BTW..I am typing this comment from El Salvador where we are currently visiting for the first time. Do not believe what our media are saying..this man is worthy of our respect and we should honor his courage and the courage of the Salvadorian People. We are seeing with our own eyes, firsthand, what liberation from tyranny looks like.
Specially and specifically Facebook
El Salvador?? I was almost murdered there in 79’ by a group of Sandanista communists.
The me's, I's and why's are the cause of all the worlds problems. "Pride goes before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall." Proverbs 16:18
Dr. Hanson is irreplaceable. Stunningly important voice.
I don't trust my vote will go how I want it. I'll still vote, but I feel I cannot trust the whole system at all. I'm probably going to be disappointed.
Lots of entitled people in need of disappearing
EXACTLY 💯
I started to listen to this and it was so informative and such truth bombs. I thought id do it just justice and download for later! Thankyou Victor and the absolute realisation that this really is going to be the most important election in the US (as well as dirtiest). On a lighter note i couldnt help noting Victor's beautiful jacket and shirt!!
This is a spiritual battle over worship
I am always enthralled listening to your interviews
You are the cream of the crop of interviewing
I tip my hat in respect and gratitude
I heard this the other day and was shocked i never thought about it. We have black history month. We have an indigenous people month. Yet we only have Veterans Day? We wouldn't have either of those month had it not been for our veterans!
The veterans are so mistreated in this country and so are the American citizens because they’re putting illegals first and they’re giving them everything for free while we pay for it on the Americans hard-working backs in taxes inflation debt America’s being changed forever. It is massive
Better late than never 👍
It's time to clean house one way or another. Normal may be boring but it is productive for all mankind. Radicals will come and go, but we have to decide what kind of people we are.
In this world you will have trouble but take heart I have overcome the world praise God praying for everyone everyday God bless you all....
🙏
Thanks for the interview on these facts.
Talk's with common sense and intelligence
And yes he is right about what coming for our upcoming elections
It's going to be dirty tooth and nail 🤔🧐
45:36 …anyone else notice the irony here or is it just me? It’s a great statement and this is a fantastic overall discussion (huge fan of VDH). Just thought it was a curious remark coming from supporters of a specific candidate
We need divine intervention. 🙏
Divine intervention that is avatar is a hindu 🕉 concept
I'm really enjoying listening to Mr Victor David Hanson. He seems to know exactly what's going on, and what may happen
As a US citizen, I don't live in a "democracy" whatever that is.
I 'm living in what is supposed to be a democratically elective constitutional republic.
In particular, my country is supposed to be fundamentally a union of 50 soverign states.
Almost all of the government should (and originally did) exist at the state and local level.
Modulo national defense, more than 99% of the federal administrative state should never have existed.
Government agencies should be created (and destroyed) ONLY by the mutual agreement of voter majorities in individual localities or states and possibly by mutual agreement with voter majorities in other localities and states. Gov't structure should never come into existence solely by the action of congress, state legislatures or city councils and MOST CERTAINLY NOT by the action of existing government.
And yet year after year the government just decrees more laws, more beuracracies*, more taxes, more restrictions, more agencies, more power to themselves.
We are. FAR cry from what the founding at had intended. They would immediately start another revolution if they came back today. The US should be ashamed at what it’s become.
You are right. Sadly, the US citizens appear to have sleepwalked into government by a neo-fascist organisation.
The States need to repeal the 16th Amendment to take away the money and repeal the 17th Amendment so the States get their responsibility back to check k the federal government
Thanks 😊
Nice welcome, get it to geather , good people need to stick to gether , it's all good, Freedom 🇨🇦🧀📮🇸🇻🇺🇲
