Al Franken: David Axelrod On The Trump Transition



Donald Trump's Cabinet selection is about as chaotic as we expected it to be. Matt Gaetz withdrew his name for Attorney General after a number of Republican Senators expressed concern with the pick. We're joined by David Axelrod, who says that Republicans in the Senate have more power than you might expect. David also examines how Democrats, the party of working people, lost so many working class voters in the Presidential election. - November 24, 2024.

in retrospect, franken's incident was nothing compared to these jerks who are soon to be cabinet members and president

but early on today, talking about inflation during the carter years, "whip inflation now" is something that i remember well

"conservatives" love to blame carter for inflation and the gasoline shortages,l but that all started a few years earlier. there were gas lines and inflation while nixon was president. "whip inflation now" was not a carter slogan, it was a jerry ford slogan.

Jimmy Carter is one of the greatest men i have ever met. that is all.

ok. deep breath. back to the podcast.
