The WallBuilders Show - Stop Punishing Your Own Side - with Jordan Lorence

You can feel it in election season: the temptation to vote with your emotions, sit out November, or “send a message” because your candidate lost a primary. We don’t sugarcoat the stakes here. When we treat the general election like a protest, we can end up empowering policies we strongly oppose and locking in consequences that last for years through courts, appointments, and executive power.

We also bring on attorney Jordan Lorence from First Liberty Institute to walk us through why the Democratic Socialists of America has so many constitutional conservatives alarmed. The issue isn’t just labels, it’s structure. We talk about checks and balances, separation of powers, federalism, the US Senate, the Electoral College, and why an independent Supreme Court is essential for protecting constitutional rights including religious liberty. If those guardrails disappear, minority rights get crushed under pure majority rule, and history shows that “more democracy” can quickly turn into something far darker.

Along the way, we get practical about how to think clearly when you don’t love the nominee, why a senator is part of a team vote, and why a governor can reshape an entire state through leadership and appointments. If you care about the Constitution, civic engagement, and biblical citizenship in modern America, this conversation is for you. Subscribe, share this with a friend who’s tempted to sit out, leave a review, and tell us: what helps you vote strategically when you don’t like the options?
