I mostly given up on Meidas Touch, after years of videos proclaiming that Trump and the Republicans are going down hard. They do have some useful information, but it is embedded in a lot of editorializing that doesn't really do anything.

If you watch that channel, the Trump administration is on the verge of collapse, and it's too disheartening to find time and time again that it isn't.

Those are very fair criticisms.

I think Meidas is trying to get the message out to the folks who are sub-sixth grade English skills and therefore they use more emotional content to connect with the folks who are…less intellectual/less able to really understand the depth of what is going on from a reading perspective. They also try to appeal to the Gen Z audience, which is definitely annoying but also necessary.

They do these things because that is where the left’s messaging fails- at emotional people, at Gen Z, and at lower education levels.

Aaron Parnas is doing a good job, and is a lot less emotional on his TikTok and Substack. He may be a good resource as well.
