The GOP Just Want To Be Influencers
Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman can't believe what they heard from former Attorney General Bill Barr, who has explicitly stated why Trump is not fit to be President, yet will gladly vote for him again this year. They discuss what a prison term would be like for our former president before shifting to our friend Ted Cruz, who's under investigation for violating campaign finance laws surrounding his not awesome podcast. They finish on an Atlantic piece that surmises the problems we face now are rooted in the protest movement of the '60s. #GoodTimes
