#411 - A Conversation with Vivek Ramaswamy

Fresh from his campaign stop in front of a Miami courthouse, presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy stops by the Fifth’s Chinatown studio to very politely argue with Welch and Moynihan about a whole bunch of stuff. Including:

  • The donor class

  • What kind of conservative is Vivek?

  • Populism and free trade

  • A peace plan for China and Ukraine

  • The Trump indictment

  • Would Vivek take a position in a Trump

  • Vivek leaves, the lads have a tipple

  • Not many randos this time

  • Matt and Moyn on the Trump indictment

  • Wait, did Moynihan just say…free Assange?? (He did!)

  • More 2024 nonsense

  • Chris Christie is serving his purpose

  • Moynihan tries to decode an ever more complex flag
