Former RNC Chairman to Democrats: Prepare for battle from now to inauguration
Listen now
Description
THIS EPISODE: Former RNC Chairman, Michael Steele, joins AMJoy to discuss the Democrat’s strategy for next 45 days, and then through to the inauguration, as an “exercise of war gaming.” He tells the panel to stop treating Donald Trump as if he is a “legitimate” president and adds, “he is not.” AND: Senate Republicans seeking the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat, plus the repeal of Obamacare, and more are analyzed by Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI). Stabenow tells Jonathan Capehart, “Our power comes from all of us speaking out, and then using the limited tools we have to create time,” to oppose the Senate GOP majority. PLUS: The Supreme Court has a dark history that late former Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg helped to counter in her written dissents, and more. Irin Carmon, co-author of “Notorious RBG,” joins Jonathan Capehart to discuss. ALSO: Republicans attempting to replace the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg with a Donald Trump nominee during the final days of his term could be met with retaliation, as one of the only tools Democrats have without a majority in the Senate. Axios political reporter Alexi McCammond joins Jonathan Capehart to discuss one retaliatory strategy, which is for Democrats to increase the number of Supreme Court and other justices. All this and much more in this Sunday edition of AM JOY on MSNBC.
