The Get More Smarter Podcast - A Weekly Show About Colorado Politics Impeachment 2: Trumplectric Trumpaloo
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, Impeachment 2 Trumplectric Trumpaloo, we keep apologizing to the rest of the country for Lauren Boebert’s very existence, and the first serious contender to take her out announces. Since we seem to have avoided an *actual* civil war, the GOP is entering into one of their very own. We go back to 2009 and discuss whether or not Democrats have learned any lessons about governing on the federal level, we preview the 2021 legislative session, and yes, it is already time to talk about the 2022 election.
