Good interview! I’m 77 and will never forget when a young euro woman asked if I was voting for Obummer. When I replied no, she was incensed, “but you’re Black!” I let her know I’ve never been a Democrat in my voting life.
100% the bad thing is you’ll have to pick a side and/or go by candidate/candidate basis some of their morals align with yours some don’t and that sways some people based off their beliefs
This is true by nature of a multi-party system but I’m going with what’s best for communities and the country in general. In this case a party hell bent on destroying the country versus one trying to save it and championing the American people. I don’t need to trust everything 100% as long as I trust them enough to do a job well done and protect our national interests. Democrats are responsible for the most evil shit I have seen: slavery by a large margin, KKK, Planned Parenthood, BLM, Antifa, transitioning kids, etc….. The biggest fault of the Conservative Party imo is letting them get away with it for too long and not being involved enough in the culture of young people to combat their wicked ways. Anyone can have policy faults and that’s why we need to choose policy over identity politics and word salad.
Dude I remember watching these two guys like 10 years ago when it was just them sitting in front of the camera goofin around. I cant believe how far they have come. Great job.
Haven't heard from these guys in years. They were always a bunch of laughs, with good training advice thrown in. Respect from the UK, and I support their political stance! Call out liberal fascism for what it is!!
I used to love them back in the day and then I kinda stopped watching RU-vid and carried on with life. Last year my mom was like.. “oh I love the hodgetwins” my mom is a 60 year old conservative white lady. I was like huh?!?!? I’m thinking there’s no way that my mom is watching these two bustin all kinds of NUTZ!!! Turns out they became political, I love it 😂
I owe a lot to these twins. Over 10 years ago a video pops up on RU-vid, and it's these 2, giving lifting advice, and at the end I shat myself when they said the "do w.e the FUCK you wanna do". It motivated me to go to the gym. I went to the gym, met my wife there, had 2 kids and together today. Without that video, and getting into these guys, my life would be completely different.
I first saw these two eating food outta their cars.. i thought they were mukbangers...lol only recently ive been watching their political stuff.. do they still mukbang?
I was liberal leaning for my entire adult life. Then 2020 rolled around and I grew up. The last straw was when I was literally called white and privileged for not wearing a mask outside in a field by another white lady. So on that note….. Let’s Go Brandon 🇺🇸
Hodgetwins just look at thngs from a logical perspective... All the followers they "lost" only did them a huge favor... ✊🏿🙏🏿👍🏿 i enjoy watching them continue to grow their platform.
From my experience, it’s the all or nothing mentality from both major parties that keeps me on the side line. When someone tells me not only how to feel but also how to show it I’m out.
Lord Keith and Lord Kevin BACK in the gym with the Hodgetwins. Two smart smart guys and hilarious as well. Their standup show is funny as hell. YEEEAAHHHH
First Andrew Tate, then the Hodge Twins. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Another awesome person that it’s admired in the Manosphere is Elliot Hulse. I think y’all wood have a great conversation.
Man I remember watching these dudes wild out on camera reading emails about SWEET WALLS! hahaha. Been a fan of them for years now and I understand where they are coming from because I am a black conservative myself. A lot of people called me out of my name, stopped being friends with me, etc... and not one time did they ask why I am a conservative which sucks because it could've opened their eyes too.
@@natecox7083 Sold ya'll out? Bruh just because I'm conservative doesn't meant I don't want to see my people succeed and living good. Being conservative doesn't=voting only republican, I just live my life differently than a lot of people.
Why are a lot of billionaires Democrat? That's a great question! And very hard to answer, imagine voting for someone who wants to take all of your money 🤣
Agreed! Not to mention install a socialist dictatorship down the road that could put an end to your business or take it over and tell you how to run it…
But you can hire accountants and hide your asset while making the smuck believe you are so woke. Sort of like Biden crying about corporations not paying their fair share of tax while he represents Delaware where Corporations goes to pay lower taxes. It’s a theatre😂
If you think logically you quickly find out that both parties are almost identical. They may market themselves differently but their actions are almost identical. There’s so much gridlock in the system that it doesn’t matter who the president is (except for the Supreme Court). There are bigger factors out there that matter more than what party has power.
These gents make a good point. Just because someone has a genius for making money doesn't mean they have a genius for anything else. And just because someone has multiple degrees doesn't mean they have a good dose of common sense, or morality for that matter. Eight of the attendees at the Wannsee Conference had doctorates in law.
We need both, liberal wants free thinking, new idea, which is a driving force, either for good, or for good. Conservative uses existing wisdom and knowledge to expanding and structuring those new ideas. We need both. That is why the new billionaires tends to be liberal, yet to make the business successful and grow, they need conservatives.
All Politicians are liars…. Period! We get so tied up in left wing and right wing ideals, none of it amounts to a hill of beans. Get money!!!!! You can prosper in any political climate.
I think he went from being in the military to being a stock broker to getting his insurance sales license and starting his own insurance company that has grown exponentially.
Hodge twins did not bring up one policy they like by the conservative side or what policy they dislike about the liberals. They were just talking jibberish. The man asked them what ideas do the democrats have that draws black people to vote for them and their reply was the democrats are better politicians lol.
“It’s very hard to convince somebody that you are the problem“. That is true of Every. Single. One of us. …in some area. The Democrat voters just have that issue regarding why they are poor. All of us have it somewhere though. Why our relationships fail, while we have issues at work, why we struggle with certain things in business…
The billionaire business owners who publicly state that they are democrats understand that it is bad PR to be Republican, and in many cases, it could actually be dangerous to acknowledge publicly that one is a Republican. The heads of big companies must proclaim loyalty to the dems regardless of what their true feelings are. Either that, or just keep quiet about politics. Look how the entire media and public sentiment turned against Elon Musk for daring to suggest that he would vote Republican in 2022.
They seem cool, it baffles me that any black men can just blindly trust either party, let alone promotes one… Neither party ever truly represented us. both is focused on hustling us
@@thoneybadger95 I’m a fool for pointing out the obvious?… the internet really has ya’ll comfortable insulting ppl because were not face to face….. I Lived in Philly 30 years… still here. shit progressively gets worst no matter which team is at the helm.. Rizzo or Krasner at DA.. city still shit
a large % of modern Black American men have been raised by single mothers with little to no exposure to positive male role models. If youre raised by a woman or women (female school teachers) more then likely youre going to be more emotional as a grown up. Edit: As the twins pointed out, the more emotional you are, the less rational u can be.
@@stevegwizzle3560 what does that have to do with the DNC & RNC ?? My point is simple… Neither party deserves black american loyalty…. the last 30 years: either a fake agenda (democrats) or no agenda (republicans)…
If we were all told the truth then most of us would find ourselves on the same side of things. But we are fed different types of information that manipulates our views that caters to which ever parties agenda we're getting that information from
1 - The ability to become a billionaire is independent of one's abilities/insights elsewhere. Which is why some billionaires (e.g., Gates, Buffet, Bezos) vote Dem and some (e.g., Musk, Thiel, future PBD) vote Republican. 2 - Individuals have their various motivations and often know full well what they are doing. Some (Dem billionaires) align themselves with "big government" (Socialist Dems) because it puts a greater barrier between themselves and the competition. So while they may lack the insight to understand their support for Dems (and complicit RINOs) ultimately erodes the sinews of the nation, they are not necessarily stupid people but entirely self-serving. These are my thoughts with regard to PBD's question.
I have no dog in the race for American politics but the Hodgetwins did an excellent job of articulating the difference between the parties. Trump exacerbated the division between the left and the right. People who were somewhat on the fence about politics found more reasons to be a Democrat once Trump took office. Which is why Biden was elected.
The rich people don't see a difference in the country because they live in places like Martha's Vinyard. A lot of these type of areas still look like they did decades and decades ago. I mean you go to these areas and they are majority white to the point it's more white than the country has ever been. This is why they don't see the difference. And they don't think they will ever have to deal with the consequences of the policies they vote for whether they realize it or not.
Not the libertarian wing of the Republican party. That populist movement is currently reforming the Republican party. Progressives tried and failed to do it in the Democratic party. That's why both establishment powers are trying to suppres MAGA candidates.
Let's buy into this premise. Then the hodge twins make a good point that there's is much to be gained by having a bit more belief in oneself but we don't live in a vacuum and it's quite difficult to really gauge how well an individual can affect reality around him without veering into delusional territory.
Even when i was white liberal……internally i always thought how wonderful it would be if more blacks became republicans (why, because it would make the right change). Ironically i have woken up and now it doesnt matter. I want people to vote on policies not ideologies. We are being played by both parties to question ideas and not actual facts and policies (not conservative, still independent….though i hate woke liberals #1, religiouslysouthern conservative #2)
Everything in life is circular. A billionaire to some degree depends on the stupidity of the masses to earn their billions. Any billionaire knows that if everyone in the country were self sufficient is Amish, there would be no billionaires. So it benefits a billionaire to push ideas that encourage dependency on corporations and consumerism.
Don’t forget the double standards the politicians from the other side like to play. Remember, rules for them but not for me. Telling me what I can’t and can do , what I can and Cannot have. . .
I used to love hodgetwins back in the day when they used to say that their parents told them when they where young to stay away from 2 topics: Religion and Politics. Now they are the "Conservatives Twins" lol
Same. I used to love watching their fitness and Q&A channels because they were hilarious. Now they're grifters capitalizing on the black conservative money train.
@@cryptocaesar8972 this is an issue that belongs on the bottom of any person's issue list. The economy, inflation, war looming with Russia and China, gas, jobs, climate change, mass migration are all issues that should take focus.
Part of making money requires more intangibles than just intelligence. The billionaire democrats are billionaires because they were granted a little bit of luck with a great idea. Intelligence towards business and intelligence towards politics are 2 different things
Silly question. Its like saying "why is that billionaire a Christian?, how can he be so smart and yet so dumb to believe in something that doesnt exist". Gotta be careful the way we think here. Ofcourse you can be smart and still have different political views. Why not?
Considering Nas and Jay z are billionaires , I find it hard to believe these same men who coined " Black Republicans" we're not trying to training warn us in 2006
That's because you're looking at it wrong. Try looking at it as movement, or factions within the parties. Right now the populist/libertarian wing of the Republican party is trying to reform it. I support this cause. The left turned and failed which is why Pelosi and Biden are in power. While the Bush, McCain, Romney are losing.
Billionaires gravitate to the democratic party because the DP is the party of power; everything they do is to gain and maintain power. Power appeals to the rich. The GOP (in general) does not view power as an end, but rather a tool for achieving freedom. This is the fundamental split in American politics.
