Matt Taibbi：2008年金融危机是特朗普崛起的预兆，民众对金融体系的不满情绪是股市狂潮的根源。他对美国政治和媒体的运作方式与俄罗斯的相似之处进行了比较，认为美国政府对金融机构的救助与俄罗斯的国有资产私有化类似，都存在严重的腐败问题。他还谈到了自己对西方媒体报道的质疑，认为许多西方记者不懂俄语，导致报道的片面性。他认为，互联网使得民众更容易了解真相，并引发政治运动。他还谈到了自己对“通俄门”事件的看法，认为一些记者因为不喜欢马斯克而忽视了事件本身的重要性。 Ryan：他认为美国目前处于一种否认现实的状态，人们拒绝相信2024年大选是拜登对阵特朗普。他还谈到了文化战争和经济问题之间的联系，认为文化反弹与经济反弹共同导致了特朗普的崛起。他还谈到了媒体机构已成为企业的发声筒，以及媒体对特朗普的报道存在偏差。 Emily：Emily在本对话中发言较少，主要参与讨论和引导话题。
