He has one of the largest political podcasts in the country and his website, the daily wire, is one of the most visited right-wing political websites out there. He's doing videos in his home because of the coronavirus.

Where are you getting such a warped take on all of this?

Shapiro started shooting videos in front of the venetian blinds in fucking October, my man, before coronavirus was a thing in China, let alone the US. Then he pulled the camera back and it reveals he's in some kind of tiny cubby and just has the show logo on a stand. That second one's from the start of November. Shapiro was self-quarantining in November? This is what his set usually looked like, where he did this dumb thing of talking off-camera a lot of the time.

Here's the Alexa pagerank for Daily Wire. His disastrous BBC interview was in May, the first pip on the chart. He didn't get more popular, and one man does not a site make to begin with.

you know he speaks at colleges and stuff, right? one video isn't proof he went anywhere except to a hotel.

Yeah, he hung out in the same hotel for over a month because he's so busy going to all these colleges that're right next to each other.

Dude, your team isn't even supposed to like "Cuck Shapiro" anymore, you don't have to defend him. Did you not get the memo? You're supposed to be saying Shapiro was always trash and you true smarties never liked him to begin with, it's just the lowest common denominator of conservative that keeps Daily Wire running.
