Show notes

Send us a Text Message.

Today's episode begins with us going through the many things that have made headlines in the past year regarding the former president and how none of it seems to significantly quell the enthusiasm behind his movement. While we appreciate that some right-wing leaders have finally decided to acknowledge his toxicity, it is simply too little and too late. Furthermore, it seems to have had no impact on his actual voting base.
