Jason Whitlock, the conservative personality for The Blaze has worn lots of hats in his professional life. He was a columnist for the Kansas City Star and worked for AOL Sports, Foxsports.com, and ESPN.
However, after the shady indictment of former President Donald Trump, Whitlock is donning a new hat. It is a MAGA hat, and it comes courtesy of the democrats and their witch-hunt agenda against the former president.
We all know the indictment against Trump is political theater of the highest order, but for many, it is a galvanizing moment where they are finally saying “enough”. Count Whitlock amongst those. He recently said via Tucker Carlson: “I am hardcore MAGA tonight. I have never voted Tucker. I am hardcore MAGA tonight. M-A-G-A. They want to turn this country into a Communist Marxist hellhole. This is tyranny. This is BULLSHIT.’”
Many, many Americans feel the same way. Fence-sitters, libertarians, and undecideds; it is impossible to look at the indictment with any sanity and say that it is justified.
Whitlock is an important conservative voice for the African-American community. The Calvin Cooledge Project wrote: “Jason Whitlock is one of the most important voices we have in this country.”

Benny Johnson chimed in on the power of Whitlock’s speech: “The most powerful 60 seconds you will ever see broadcast on TV. Jason Whitlock fighting back tears: ‘I have never voted Tucker. I am hardcore MAGA tonight. M-A-G-A. They want to turn this country into a Communist Marxist hellhole. This is tyranny. This is BULLSHIT.’”
Jason Whitlock is one of the free thinkers that hasn’t committed himself to any particular party or candidate. It actually is possible to evaluate things on a case-by-case basis and decide morally what is best for the individual. Ideally, we would all be like that, but the left is insistent on pushing the “Orange man bad” narrative, and folks like Whitlock have seen enough.
Whitlock continued by saying: “they [the Democrats going after Trump] have turned Trump into this devilish Luciferian character when they are the devils.”
Conservatives have been rallying around Trump, from JD Vance to Ron DeSantis, to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. The Speaker had this to say: “Alvin Bragg has irreparably damaged our country in an attempt to interfere in our Presidential election. As he routinely frees violent criminals to terrorize the public, he weaponized our sacred system of justice against President Donald Trump. The American people will not tolerate this injustice, and the House of Representatives will hold Alvin Bragg and his unprecedented abuse of power to account.”
Ted Cruz added: “The Trump indictment is not going to be the last salvo. More presidents will be indicted. Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg’s political persecution of Donald Trump puts America on a very bad road. This incitement is not good for America and the rule of law.”
So, the democrat’s incredibly short-sighted, embarrassing indictment of Trump is not only rallying conservative Republicans but quasi-conservatives like Jason Whitlock as well. Truly, the left cannot get out of its own way, and they are making MAGA fans by the day. That can only be good for the country.
