Just a short while ago, Mamet appeared on Jesse Watters’ show, where he articulated how adrift he perceives the Democratic Party to be.
In another recent discussion, Mamet reflected on his estrangement from leftist ideologies.
According to an interview featured on FOX News,
“Film director and playwright David Mamet, famed for his work on the stage play ‘Glengarry Glen Ross’ and its film counterpart, shared insights about his political evolution during a Thursday chat on the ‘Brian Kilmeade Show.’”
Mamet disclosed how he was “kicked out of the left” approximately 25 years ago, leading him to explore his newfound right-leaning beliefs. He remarked on how his previous self-identification as a “brain-dead liberal” and his calls for political decorum in an article caused many of his leftist colleagues to sever ties with him.
“Before, I didn’t know any Republicans, which left me in the dark about what conservatism truly entails. But once I was ostracized from the left, I began delving into constitutional conservatism, and that sparked considerable interest and enthusiasm in me—hence, here I am today,” he elaborated. “I found my conservative beliefs when I realized that everything I held to be true about the Democratic Party was fundamentally misguided.”
David, it seems the right side is quite pleased to welcome you aboard.
