Alex Kopytko is a ”radical centrist” that wants to understand the extremes. He has worked in politics and has studied public policy and political science. Alex argues that centrism is less about being a contrarian, it is about being able to change your mind and embrace an openness to new ideas. He is concerned about where the United States is headed and through conversations with people from all sides of the political spectrum, he wants to know how Americans can limit the tribalism that is flourishing. As someone that dances along the center-right of the political spectrum, Alex thinks the country needs to come together and talk to one another before it could be too late. This podcast covers domestic politics, as well as political philosophy, and international issues.

In this episode, Alex starts by sharing his thoughts on why Vivek Ramaswamy and why he is a unique candidate that has interesting domestic views but atrocious views involving Ukraine. Alex wonders if Ramaswamy is running to be president or to be part of a Trump cabinet. Next, the Fox News chyron called Biden a “wannabe dictator” that was going after his political rival (Donald Trump). Alex wonders why this was no immediately taken down and how this happened. He notes that this is a perfect summarization of how Fox News has created fear and division. Finally, he talks about reports of a Chinese military base in Cuba. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is concerned that the Chinese may be using the base to intercept American transmissions since Florida is only about 100 miles away. Alex notes that the United States had the chance to bring Cuba to the table, instead Trump pushed Cuba towards China and now an opportunity may have been missed.
