Description

Summer’s here, and Sarah’s taking a break from primary election coverage to take stock of the national political landscape. We haven’t talked to swing voters in a little while about the overall state of the country, and it’s becoming clear that the war in Iran is overshadowing, well, everything. Plus: The post-redistricting U.S. House math for Democrats, and a local issue bubbling up all over the country that has some lessons about why Americans are so disillusioned. Sarah kicks this around with one her favorite nerds: Amy Walter, publisher and editor-in-chief of the Cook Political Report. Note: The discussion of Maine's Senate race took place BEFORE the June 4 New York Times reporting on Graham Platner.

These people lack critical thinking skills and will wait for the next false prophet that aligns with their bigotry before ever voting for a democrat.

"He made me feel." Somebody break it to these people that, when evaluating political candidates, thinking is required.

To hear a woman say she thought Donald would care about them. Fascinating. Donald is a misogynistic abusive male. He is incredibly insecure and goes to control and intimidation to make himself feel better about his creepy self. Scares me that a woman would not see that! He is a weak stupid President. Men might like his crap but women should be smarter. Come on America take off those stupid red hats and vote blue!
