Description
As the 2024 election comes into focus, Democrats are gnashing their teeth with worry. Will President Joe Biden have the momentum to win a second term as America’s democracy is threatened? On the Republican aisle, the MAGA and GOP Classic wings of the party fight in Congress while worrying about the viability of both former President Donald Trump and the party’s would-be rescuer, Governor Ron DeSantis. It’s high anxiety time in DC. On this week’s episode, Fernando chats with political strategist Simon Rosenberg about the Democrats’ challenges in reelecting President Biden. Simon is the founder and CEO of the New Democrat Network, a centrist democratic think tank in Washington, DC. He is a frequent political analyst on Fox News, MSNBC, and ABC News. Famously, Simon predicted that the “Red Wave” of 2022 would sputter. Simon is also the author of the popular political newsletter Hoppium Chronicles.
