The Real Reason MAGA Fears Adam Mockler

Mike Nellis

Last week, my buddy Adam Mockler absolutely triggered and embarrassed CNN’s top MAGA talking head, Scott Jennings, over the war on Iran. He clowned him so badly on Trump’s war being a failure that Jennings dropped an F-bomb, throwing a temper tantrum on live national television.

And I’ve been thinking about why Adam, specifically, triggers these MAGA influencers so damn much. I go on right-wing media all the time—I get under their skin too. It’s easy to say they just can’t take a punch, that they’re threatened by anyone who pokes holes in their worldview. That’s true. But with Adam, it feels more specific.

It’s his age.

We’re watching another disastrous conflict in the Middle East unfold—one that hasn’t made you safer, your groceries more affordable, or health care more accessible. And the same failed leaders who pushed us into Iraq are now out here carrying water for Trump and selling this war.

Here’s the reality: the same people who’ve failed us for decades want another forever war, and they want his generation to go fight it. Because it’s not going to be them or their kids. So why would they care?
