The Daily Wire's boy king tore into his ex-friend and fellow right-wing windbag on Friday, escalating their ongoing feud to new heights.

“That's why he has a ‘Piss Off YouTube’ segment in which he deliberately does not say things that will get him kicked off YouTube, and directs people behind his paywall. “It’s despicable to plan weeks in advance to attack my best friend (and your friend!) by setting up and secretly taping a phone call, all to grow your email list.” He must be a shill for YouTube or something.” In the recording, which a smirking Crowder replayed numerous times for his viewers, Boreing can be heard saying that burgeoning right-wing media figures “get to be wage slaves for a little bit” while building their brand with The Daily Wire. Attacking us was the plan,” Shapiro [reacted](https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/1616456905928359937). [per Shapiro](https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/1616456736856018947).

The right-wing commentator said some people he thought were fighting for conservatives are perpetrating a "con," exemplifying the right's betrayal complex.

The last time either party boasted as much was the Democrats for only a few months in 2009. Before that, it was the Democrats again in 1979. Republican officeholders and personalities looking to differentiate themselves have long blamed the vacuous “establishment” for the conservative movement’s shortcomings. Prior to Donald Trump’s rise, the position taken by party officeholders on immigration was vastly different from the sentiments of the base. But so is control of the White House, House of Representatives, and 60+ votes in the Senate. “Steven’s philosophy seems to be: ‘I deserve to be paid millions and millions and millions of dollars whether my show drives the revenue or not… How could he believe as much after reading the plain language of the $50 million contract it offered him? he’s not looking for a business relationship, he’s looking for a benefactor.” One of those provisions stated that if 50% of advertisers were to drop Crowder, and the revenue were to not be recouped within 90 days, Crowder’s prorated salary ($12.5 million) would be reduced by 25% until it was recouped. A third would have reduced his salary by 20% if he were to be outright banned by YouTube or Apple Podcasts and 10% if he were banned by Facebook or Spotify.
