> basically advocating for and co-opting many of the core economic ideas of the current administration

That seems laughable. Which policies specifically are you talking about? Trust me, no one would more like this to be true than I. But... good grief.

Feel free to act outraged. I am not going to further debate this charged topic. The authors are literally on every podcast trying to contrast themselves from various aspects of DOGE or deregulation and ideas that came before from Peter Thiel et al. That proves the point is not as far-fetched and crazy to debate, even if you disagree with the conclusion.

I'd genuinely prefer to engage on specifics. What Trump administration policies do you think Klein is co-opting?

Genuinely interested people in debate would not start by calling the other party's statement "laughable" out of the gate and backtrack later.
To be fair, I said it "seems" laughable. But I'm willing to be educated. The question still stands.
