Already did. Listen to the first episode--it’s in the second-ish half.

What kind of creepy-ass cat mutants live in your neighborhood?

But ‘Trumpanzee’ sounds so much better than ‘Trumpmander’

Worst bear news of the year.

I don’t know which campaign you’ve been watching, but Clinton’s has been incredibly well-run. Especially compared to her 2008 operation. Hiring Mook instead of Penn was her best decision by far.

Attracts doggies!

Exactly. Do you claim tax credits for having kids or paying school tuition? Then you’re on welfare, baby!

Despite what Republicans and much of the media would have you believe, Social Security is not in jeopardy. Chris Wallace should be ashamed for perpetuating rightwing myths about it last night in the debate:

That was exactly what came to mind when she mentioned “middle out” economic growth. Definitely the most efficient way to excite the economy.

Clinton has been in the lead throughout the primary and general election and keeps being portrayed as struggling or on the verge of losing. Now people are going to say her victory won’t count because she competed against the worst Republican nominee in history. She’ll likely also be judged a loser if she fails to win

No, that’s why I specified that the follow-up questions have to be tough. Saying, “your opponent said xyz, care to respond” is NOT a tough follow-up question.

If you want something to worry about every day, pay attention to Senate races instead,

Research suggests presidential debates have little impact on the outcome of a race. But I think they occupy an outsized role in media narratives after the fact, e.g. people suggesting Clinton turned her campaign around in the first debate when her numbers were actually on the rise at that point.

After decades of propaganda, Republicans have succeeded in making Americans hate the words, “welfare” and “entitlements”, but not actual welfare/entitlement programs.

I agree, but the fact checks should be in the form of tough follow-up questions about any egregious lies stated by the candidate. Raddatz did this very well in the second debate. E.g. Trump claims he’s always been against the Iraq War, follow-up question would be something like, “But Mr. Trump, there is tape of you on

Yeah, nepotism is bad, but it happens everywhere. If you’re going to criticize the Sulzberger family for it, at least offer an actual critique instead of just performatively rolling your eyes at the nepotism.

Yeah, I mean “election”, not “reelection”. Thanks.

This is a weird thing to break out the Ironytron 3000 over. It’s the New York Times. Did you think there was a chance Sulzerberger was going to turn it into a workers’ coop?

Meanwhile, Dubya was reelected by the slimmest margin in history and the media and conservatives act like it’s a mandate. Obama blew McCain out of the water and Republicans vowed to make him a one term president before he even took the oath of office.

Your take is lame and uninformed.
