Andrew Schulz, the comedian-turned-bro-podcaster who has made derogatory remarks about Black women, joked about sexually assaulting rapper Kendrick Lamar, and defended his use of the R-slur, among other controversial, offensive statements, is going viral for his switch-up on his support for the current administration.
In a clip circulating from his podcast The Brilliant Idiots with Charlamagne Tha God, Schulz — who voted for Trump in 2024 and even sat down with the president on his show ahead of the presidential election — spoke out about what finally made him realize MAGA has gone too far.
“I will say that this was a breaking point for me in the way that the administration responded to it,” Schulz said, referring to ICE. “Like, I didn’t think what’s happening right now with ICE could happen in America. I genuinely did not think that was possible. I thought our institution— I thought the Constitution would hold up.”
“When I see it and then immediately defend it, I start to go, we got to be very loud about this,” he continued. “Like, it all of a sudden becomes not, like, liberal catastrophic thinking. It starts to become very reasonable, nuanced criticism of the administration.”
Schulz went on to say that even the “most far-left critiques” had been justified by the administration’s actions. “In one moment, all of their responses — from Trump to Kash Patel – they have justified every single critique,” he said. “And I know people probably look at this and they’re like, ‘They’ve done a million other things to justify them.’ Sure, and that’s fair. But this specific situation, I think, is a breaking point, and it has justified all those criticisms.”
The clip quickly spread across social media, where many people were far from sympathetic:
“Brother YOU PLATFORMED HIM, this is heavily on you,” a comment on a Reddit thread of the clip read.
“All it would’ve taken is one critical thought.. about a year and a half ago…” someone commented on Instagram.
“I won’t be satisfied till I see every comedian who rode for Trump during the election self flagellate in the street,” another posted.
Others reshared the now-infamous tweet: “‘I never thought leopards would eat MY face,’ sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party.”
Still, not everyone dismissed Schulz outright. Some said they appreciated people being willing to admit they were wrong:
“You know what, I appreciate folks admitting they were wrong instead of doubling down or pretending they played no role in how we got here,” one wrote.
But for many, acknowledgment alone wasn’t enough, especially for people with massive platforms. “not enough to admit you’re wrong,” one wrote. “use the millions you’ve gained from your channel and donate to down ballot races that focuses on working class issues.”
What are your thoughts? Is it enough for Schulz to admit he was wrong, or should he do something meaningful with that realization? Let us know in the comments.
