The Get More Smarter Podcast - A Weekly Show About Colorado Politics The Longest 100 Days of Our Lives
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, 100 days down, 1,359 to go: Donald Trump’s second nonconsecutive term in the White House is going extremely poorly by literally every metric, to the surprise of absolutely nobody on this podcast. Then, Mike Waltz has left the chat! But he has entered the nomination for the Ambassador to the United Nations. Is there literally nothing a Trump loyalist can do to actually get fired by a guy who literally made “You’re Fired” a personal catch phrase?
Next Trump and Republicans are almost comically unserious about handling the scourge of gun violence that has plagued this country for essentially the entirety of the time both of us have been on the planet, and they’re still managing to find time to screw over American veterans while they do nothing about guns. And finally we zoom in on our home state of Colorado as Republican politicians try to get Democratic politicians arrested; dark money comms organizations that aren’t really think tanks finally get called out by the local press; and while the trade war makes everything dumber and more expensive, one American export is really picking up steam. Can you guess what it is? (it’s measles!)
