Daily Wire News gave several of its familiar voices a turn at the post-election questions, from candidate quality to the future of American politics. Ben Shapiro's Texas analysis drew the largest audience among the week's new uploads, reaching about 79,000 views, while Matt Walsh's "Matt Walsh on What Changed This Time Around" was the next most watched.
As we reported here, Shapiro's Morning Wire appearance attributes Republican losses to a combination of unaffordability, chaos and corruption. The conversation also moves beyond Texas into the next presidential nomination: he expects J.D. Vance, Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz to run, while considering Marco Rubio unlikely to enter. Those are Shapiro's predictions, not announced candidacies.
The wider schedule gave Andrew Klavan room to consider American politics' future and Michael Knowles a segment on how Republicans reached this point. More recently, "What We Learned From Trump's 60 Minutes Interview" has become another of the channel's active draws, though the Texas discussion remains its busiest video right now.
Across the channel, the week brought roughly 386,000 views and no change in subscribers. Today's viewing is running well below its usual daily level. Among nearby news channels, its weekly viewing total was close to Daily Mail News's, while The Canadian Press and Guardian Australia had substantially larger weeks. For Daily Wire News, the strongest new audience gathered around the host trying to explain Texas, rather than the uploads already moving on to Washington's next questions.
