  Trump’s Economy Is Stronger Than Voters Think | Victor Davis Hanson

  Oct 3, 20261h 27m

  The economy is showing signs of strength, but many Americans still aren’t feeling it—and Republicans have only weeks to convince voters that their policies are working. Victor Davis Hanson and Sami Winc break down the economic picture heading into the midterms, including growth, inflation, wages, and why even The Washington Post is acknowledging some of the underlying strengths of Trump’s economy. They also discuss how illegal immigration is affecting American hospitals and emergency rooms, and what Republicans need to do to turn the economy into a winning midterm message. In the Saturday special, Victor looks back at the presidencies of Abraham Lincoln and Franklin D. Roosevelt and the extraordinary crises that defined their time in office.

  European Anti-Semitism, Saving Sinwar’s Life, and the Left’s October 7 Denial

  Oct 1, 20261h 26m

  European nations are turning against Israel while downplaying the realities of October 7 and applying a different standard to Israel’s response to terrorism. Victor Davis Hanson and Jack Fowler focus on Ireland and Spain’s increasingly anti-Israel rhetoric and the refusal to confront the brutality of the October 7 attacks. They also highlight the irony that Israeli doctors once saved the life of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar by removing a brain tumor while he was imprisoned in Israel. Hanson also pushes back on claims that the conflict with Iran is becoming another “forever war,” arguing that Iran’s weakened infrastructure and limited American combat losses tell a very different story. The conversation also covers the growing race for artificial intelligence dominance, Elon Musk’s success with companies like SpaceX and Starlink, the release on bail of five suspects arrested with explosives near a British airbase used by the United States, and the political dynamics heading into the midterm elections.

  Victor Davis Hanson: Why Canada's Prime Minister Is Courting Disaster

  Sep 29, 20261h 29m

  Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney raises the prospect of preparing for a possible U.S. invasion as trade tensions between Canada and the United States continue to escalate. The strain in the relationship comes as Canada faces broader economic pressures, questions over immigration and open-border policies, and growing concern over the long-term consequences of severing ties with its largest trading partner. Across Western institutions, similar ideological battles are playing out in higher education and the cultural establishment. Stanford faces backlash over the use of AI to alter students’ races in promotional materials, while academic fraud controversies at Cambridge raise further questions about standards and credibility in elite universities. The National Book Awards and the growing influence of DEI politics in major cultural institutions come under scrutiny, along with the treatment of left-wing historians and public figures in the media. The conversation closes with the midterms, where both parties currently stand, and what the coming election season could look like.

  Victor Davis Hanson: The Left Is Rebranding Ahead of the Midterms

  Sep 26, 20261 hour

  Victor Davis Hanson examines whether woke politics has truly faded or whether Democrats are simply changing their message ahead of the 2026 midterms. Hanson discusses the rise of Democratic candidates James Talarico in Texas and Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, and why Republicans cannot afford to dismiss their opponents or assume traditionally favorable races are already won. Victor and Sami Winc also react to Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations and the walkout by delegates during his remarks, before continuing their series on American presidents with a look at Harry Truman and James Buchanan.
