Jaron Lowenstein: 我认为拜登的掩盖行为与特朗普拒绝和平权力移交一样，都是对民主的威胁。我们开始看到拜登的掩盖是多么的严重。过去，我们也看到伯尼在2016年被民主党精英排挤。这些难道不是对我们民主的威胁吗？或者说，这些难道不是我们没有民主的时刻吗？ Sam Harris: 我认为拜登竞选连任的背后存在着令人不安的虚伪和不诚实。民主党和媒体为了对抗特朗普，变得腐败且易被腐蚀。我们面临的选择是，宁愿选择一个近乎昏迷的总统，也不愿选择特朗普。主流媒体未能更关注拜登在任期末和竞选期间的精神状态，对此负有责任。真正的丑闻是，拜登身边的人早就知道他的问题，但他们却隐瞒和保护他。即使拜登真的认知能力下降，也比让一个自私自利的特朗普当总统要好。我宁愿让一群普通人组成的委员会来管理国家，也不愿让一个邪恶的总统当政。

Sam hopped back on with his manager and business partner, Jaron Lowenstein, to talk about current events and answer some of the questions you all submitted on Substack. They discuss the Biden cover-up and how it compares to Trump’s transgressions, Sam’s latest episode with Jake Tapper, whether Tapper had a journalistic responsibility to share what he knew about the cover-up sooner, and criticism from the audience about Sam’s views on Israel’s actions in Gaza.
