open.spotify.com/episode/3r7dwM
1. The blue-chip polls beat the Twitter vibes.
2. Florida is, politically speaking, now a tropical tail of Alabama.
3. The Trump/Extremist Tax is real.
4. Dobbs & democracy > Midterm gravity
5. The US sucks at counting votes.

Great quick pod. Loved the Bernie/Florida take. Also underrated here: 1) how bad a candidate Charlie Crist was (e.g. an ad trying to blame inflation on RD?!?) & 2) DeSantis being a very competent governor who acts like an adult when it matters (e.g. w/ Biden after Sunrise/Ian)

Can we start to refer to Trump as #TheWashingtonGeneral as homage to the perpetual losers to the Harlem Globetrotters, given the lengthy losing streak you described on this pod....thoughts
