Cenk Uygur, the main host of the far left political talk show the ‘Young Turks’ attended an event hosted by the conservative group Turning Point USA in Arizona this week and was welcomed warmly by the crowd.
In his opening remarks, Uygur praised the attendees, saying that people on the right are more welcoming than Democrats. He then suggested that this is one of the reasons why Trump and MAGA won the popular vote in November.
He also said that people need to try to work together more, especially when they find they’re in agreement on a particular issue.
Mediaite provides a partial transcript of Uygur’s remarks:
CENK: You guys do a great job of coalescing. Okay, So you do a couple of things, well. You work together well, and you’re more welcoming, if I’m being honest.
KIRK: We’re glad Cenk’s here. Right, everybody?
[CROWD CHEERS]
CENK: And a lot of people on the left know this as well. If you agree with MAGA 5%, the answer you get is welcome, right? Come join us right? On the left if you disagree 5%, they go, get out of here. You’re a right winger. You’re a fascist. Right? But if you push enough people out and you guys welcome enough people in, eventually you win the popular vote. That’s what I warn them about. And that’s what happened, right?
[CROWD CHEERS]
CENK: So, look, I proposed simple rules, the three rules of the Internet. Rule number one. When we disagree, we fight. There’s nothing wrong with that right now. New rule number two is afterwards, we must have a beer together. Okay. And and rule number three is, for God’s sake, when we agree, let’s unite. So for the left. We have too much division. We almost never unify. I don’t mean with the right. I mean internally. The left loves to attack one another. I love you guys on the left. I love you. But every once in a while, when we get a yes, when we agree. Can we please unite? And the second thing we need is for the old I’m being honest. And on average, not everyone, of course, but for the older Democratic voters. Please turn off your television sets there. They’re lying to you.

Uygur is right about MAGA folks. They are friendly and welcoming. They are nothing like the way the media has tried to portray them.
