What's Pushing Women Away from the New Right

Season 2026 Episode 8122 | 17m 49s

The MAGA movement is fractured over the Iran war, but other issues are also sowing divisions within. Rampant misogyny is one of them, and young women who were once drawn to MAGA are becoming disillusioned by what they see as explicit, "cruel and fickle" sexism. Sam Adler-Bell writes about "The Women Leaving the New Right" in his latest piece for New York Magazine. He tells Michel about this trend.
