People HAVE been convinced to vote against their own interests for decades now. That's why the country is a mess. Why attack him for telling the truth?

[randyjax]

I watched both interviews. This guy won me over hands-down. Rather than resorting to basic party talking points, he actually knows what he’s talking about.

[timsoel]

Please have him on more often (even if he loses). That dude speaks so calming and barely touches culture war stuff, just talked about broadband. Really nice guy

[adamsaetveit]

Cawthorn postures as a revolutionary, a young upstart, while he recites standard GOP talking points. I hope NC makes the right choice.

[Deadsticle]

Thank you. Finally somebody talking about rural areas having limited access to quality internet. I like this guy.

[Hearthescience]

I’d rather have an old man with new progressive ideas than a young man with old conservative ones. Good luck my guy

Saagar, that kid isn't a new voice at all. He's a young voice, but there's nothing new about what he's saying. And no, it's not incendiary to compare the kid to the stale old guard who stayed in office long after he should have, which is a huge problem with the Congress today: Thurmand. He didn't go to race, you did. I see where your head's at.

Saagar is way off base on this interview.. sorry Saagar but this man is a great candidate..he said he is going to be loyal to the people not Pelosi or Trump... the other candidate is a Trumpist..

[marcoshernandez]

I like this guy. He handled Krystal and Saagar easy.

[jallah]

I was expecting the worst after reading "former guantanamo prosecutor", turns out he isn't that bad at all. Sure, he isn't Jaamal Bowman, but at least he isn't the absolute worst.

[anna-birdretired]

If I lived in his district, I'd vote for this guy. I'm also impressed that he had the courage to call a racist a racist, even if Saager wants to feign outrage.

[MrJvigue]

Sagger: Hold on those facts are incendiary

[texmexican]

Saagar got triggered. It was rich and hilarious.

[richspizzaparty]

I’m glad you treated this guy the way you did because he outshined you both. Level headed, calm under pressure. No brainer voting for him.

[martell]

Saagar: Hey wait! It’s totally incendiary to compare Cawthorn to Strom Thurman just because he holds the same views as Strom Thurmond! How dare you! Most republicans hold those views! How dare you!?

[suzinabq]

I think Col. Moe Davis did a good job in this interview.

[kwils]

Epic to see Saagar get triggered by the Strom Thurmond comment

[johnm_inmn]

That 24 yr old is a new voice in the Repub party like Boot-edge-edge is a new voice in the Dem party.

[slamrobot]

They were waaaay harder on him than his opponent. What is happening to this show??

[mikebear]

yes, facts that make Republicans look bad are incendiary lol, come on Saagar :-)
