Oh my goodness. What a revelation

“The latest episode of this podcast (today is 11/25/19) blew my mind. Ezra’s interview reveals that the Newt-to-now evolution of conspiratorial “fringe-adjacent” republican talking points to full court press cult-like behavior is almost a necessary strategy to retain some power in an era where the big tent of democrats would swallow the republicans whole if not for this weird theory of the case that those loyal to the party hang onto. It’s really the first explainer of WHY the republicans have been acting the way they have acted for the last decade. In a way it’s sad, it’s also comforting, it’s also disturbing. I mean when Michael Bloomberg is running for president as a Democrat, one has to wonder - is being a democrat just another code word for “not insane” / less insane ? The sad part is, is being insane and void of reality the only way a second political party can distinguish themselves in “politically correct” terms? I don’t know. This episode has given me a lot
To think about. It kind of makes one wonder, if there is no reality to which a democrat can appeal to in the other party in trying to act in a bipartisan manner, where does that leave us? Can the republicans distinguish themselves in a new way and still have the respect of their constituents? It seems almost so easy for a normal and sane person to just shake people’s hands and say they are republican without buying into any of this craziness and give comfort to those non-insane lifelong “small government” republicans and still win office. Why does supporting Donald trump have to be a part of it? It’s very dire. Anyway, if you have limited time, this most recent episode is worth a listen no matter what you have going on. Thanks, Ezra.”

“A very good impeachment explainer. It doesn’t just make the obvious points or recap the news. They go in depth with backstory that I didn’t know.”
