According to the propagandists, the “white supremacists” won the 2024 election. What now? As people think about the next four years and beyond, some are fearful that Trump and his administration will strain race relations even farther. However, others believe that Trump’s victory marks a turning point for facing racial problems in our system today.
On “Zero Hour,” Jeremy Carl, political commentator, senior fellow at the Claremont Institute, and author of the new book "The Unprotected Class: How Anti-White Racism Is Tearing America Apart," sat down with James Poulos to discuss racism, the new Trump administration, and the systemic problems that America faces today.

On the subject of race in America today, Carl addressed the elephant in the room: DEI policies and discriminatory practices have pushed white people away from many of our institutions. Carl said, "If I want to go to an Ivy League school and I am a white guy without connections, it's pretty much impossible. That is unfortunately the system we're in today."
However, he expressed optimism that the consensus of the 2024 election showed signs that real change could be coming soon: “In some ways, the particularly multiethnic element of this coalition that Trump has put together gives him a unique platform where this multiethnic coalition is saying, ‘No, we’re not going to treat people this way [discriminate on the basis of race].'"
Far from white supremacy, Carl thinks that this “multiethnic coalition” for Trump is a sign that people of other races condemn the mistreatment of whites and want things to change. They gathered in support of Trump, who “was just himself. In the same way that he’s still wearing the suit when he goes to McDonald’s, he didn’t try to put on the work overalls or gold chains like a rapper. He didn’t apologize for being a white Boomer, but he’s like, ‘Hey, I love America, you love America, we can both do our thing here.'”
He added that Trump acted as a lesson for all white people in America today: “He never apologized for who he was.”

Once beloved by many in Hollywood, comedian Jay Johnston was not prepared for what simply supporting President Trump in 2016 — and attending the infamous January 6 protest in 2021— would bring him.
Johnston was sentenced to one year and one day in prison for attending the protest, but he has now been pardoned by the president.
The police report reads, “Several members of the crowd joined together to push against police in a concerted movement. Johnston participated in this concerted movement and pushed along with other rioters for several seconds.”
“Now, that is a shocking accusation,” Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” jokes to Johnston, adding, “Could this possibly be true?”
“It is not true. I was bravely trying to get my balance. I had my hands on the person in front of me, trying to stand up, because the crush was coming, and everyone was off balance,” he explains.
The police report gets even more damning.
“At approximately 3:05 pm, CCTV shows that Johnston was handed a bottle of water by another rioter. Johnston then handed that bottle of water to a third rioter, who used it to wash his eyes out. Johnston then assisted at least three other rioters by pouring the water on the rioter faces,” the report says.
“They were appreciative of the water,” Johnston says, explaining that these protesters were reeling from mace or pepper spray. “I didn’t realize it was a crime at that point, and it still doesn’t seem like one right now.”
Even his friends used the opportunity to throw him under the bus.
“I had texted a friend of mine, and he relayed the information to another friend of ours, who was actually a closer friend, and that close friend texted me sort of digging for information. Like, ‘Oh, so you’re at the Capitol, what’s it like, what happened?'” Johnston explains.
“I said, you know, it was in the papers whatever, about it being ‘not violent, and then it was violent, and it was untastic,’” he continues. “I made a joke, and then they used that in court and everything.”
“So this was a close friend of mine who totally ratted me out and snitched and everything and a real bummer, but everybody just turned their backs on me. There wasn’t anyone who was like, ‘Gosh man, I don’t know what the heck you were doing there, but tell me what happened, like help me understand,’” he adds.
