Nap Time for Sleepy Don A Republic, If You Can Keep It
-
- Politics
Still another week like no other: the previous guy napping at his own criminal trial, the current guy seeing his polling numbers nudge upwards with an economy that the Wall Street Journal calls "The Envy of the World", and a stunning tipping point in a major Michigan political scandal:
Attorney General Nessel stuns Lansing with criminal indictments of former House Speaker Lee Chatfield and his wife. We’ll talk with outspoken campaign finance reform advocate Bob LaBrant.
Democrats, as expected, win the 2 special elections to fill state House vacancies, restoring the Dem’s trifecta control of state government.
More campaign finance shenanigans, with our Mark Brewer hot on the trail of the malefactors.
In national political news –
Sleepy Donald Trump’s social media company’s stock matches his New York trial energy level: sinking fast.
Joe Biden continues to gain ground in national polling as he campaigns while Trump fumes in court.
The U.S. economy is, in the words of a Wall Street Journal Headline, “the envy of the world” … but that’s not registering with American voters.
Crime in the U.S. is dropping … but that’s not registering with voters either.
Our focus is the story of the week (and maybe the year) in Michigan: a 13-count indictment of former House Speaker Lee Chatfield.
