    Rubin was originally Of The Left, and uses his background to make his critiques of the Left more valid.

    I don't know how he identifies, but I've seen a few of his interviews (6 or 7) and I identify him as a conservative.

      I agree with Rubin on certain issues, such as getting men out of women's jails - an issue that makes me LIVID - but I saw him on Fox (while visiting an elderly relative) last year banging on about the Democrats' plot to steal Thanksgiving via COVID restrictions (I'm paraphrasing).

      Just before Rubin's rant, my family had lost a relatively young member (early 40s) to COVID after two months of hospitalization, so I wasn't in the mood to hear his nonsense.

      I have seen other interviews in which I thought Rubin was intelligent and well-spoken, but I just wonder how many vulnerable people he convinced that COVID was exaggerated, who later died or had family members who died.

      Here is Rubin speaking on COVID restrictions and last year's Thanksgiving:
