Why the Right Loves Russia
AEI's Guy Denton returns to talk with Matt about the death of Alexei Navalny, and why so many of today's right-wingers love Vladimir Putin. Matt discusses his Daily Beast column about why today's Gen-X Republicans would root for Ivan Drago in Rocky IV. They also discuss Rep. Mike Gallagher's decision to retire, and whether "adverse selection" is making the GOP irredeemably Trumpy. Lastly, they discuss what professional wrestling tells us about American culture and politics, and why a British accent is guy's "secret weapon."
