How Fox is Splitting Us Up

Guest Juliet Jeske of Decoding Fox News joins the show to explain how Fox is dividing us and even divided against itself. This week they framed Biden's democracy trip as a choice between Ukraine and Ohio, doing Putin's propaganda work for him. And then they had MTG on to talk about a "national divorce", spurring their own custody battle between Fox hosts. Is it all for the ratings? That's what the Dominion lawsuit showed.

"A huge reality check"

Joe gives us all a reality check about the power of Trumpism and why Nikki Haley needs- to put it kindly - a whole lot of things to break her way to even be relevant. And why the "next generation" argument doesn't hold water in today's ultra-MAGA GOP. Joe and Alex also tackle what Joe thinks is the wackiest listener question we've ever gotten - we're wondering if it's from Trump himself. Read Stuart's NYT piece on Nikki Haley here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/13/opinion/nikki-haley-republican-party.htmlSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

"Who is it you think you're fooling?" with Reed Galen

Special guest Reed Galen joins Joe and Alex for a special guest episode looking deep inside the chaos going on in the GOP right now. What all the challengers to Trump are getting wrong in 2024 -- and why running for President is way, way harder than anyone realizes. Why is it such a slog, even if you're the favorite? And why all that adds up to anyone thinking they can beat Trump is doing some wishful thinking. Plus - why popping the right-wing balloon is important in more ways than one. And we even get to a few listener questions!

"A controlled experiment to break the MAGA fever"

Special guest Greg Sargent of the Washington Post joins us to talk about how Joe Biden's major legislative accomplishments are political jiu-jitsu. How is his investment in American workers taking aim at the MAGA grievance machine? And what can we do to counter all the negative sentiment in mainstream media with positive? Plus, why Ron DeSantis may have read the room wrong with his culture war crusades. Could they backfire even in a GOP primary? And is there an emerging new pathway for Democrats in presidential elections?Read Greg's interview with Mark Muro here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/01/25/biden-place-based-industrial-policy-muro/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

Rating Joe Biden, two years in

Joe and Alex assess Joe Biden's performance after two years -- why it's nothing short of remarkable. Three major bills investing in American workers -- in ways that might surprise red-state voters. Taking on a global pandemic and Putin's Ukraine war. And that's only in two years. Why has his presidency had such a major impact? And why is it good news for Democratic candidates next fall? Plus - Alex opens Pandora's box with the phrase "Vice President Marjorie Taylor Greene." Don't say it three times in a mirror. Joe looks deep into the crazy to see what the GOP presidential hopefuls are thinking.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

How to save democracy, with Mike Podhorzer

Mike Podhorzer joins a special guest episode of the show - and it's one you don't want to miss. What really happened in the days after Election Day in 2020 - and how did people across the political spectrum come together to save it? Why building a coalition to protect democracy is more important than ever. What can we learn from 2022? And what lessons do we need to take into 2024 as a pro-democracy coalition? Also - Why a massive media miss at the end of 2022 probably cost the Democrats the House. And why they can't keep making the same mistakes. What do we do about it? Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

"They want to wreck the government"

Why it's all just another MAGA stunt. Why the GOP should remember - when you start a forest fire, everything in it dies. What happens when Members of Congress can't even find their own offices, let alone their staffs? We're about to find out. And why Joe thinks that long term this could have huge electoral consequences for the GOP. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

"The crazy is who they are"

Joe and Alex are back - but the House GOP isn't. The House GOP leadership fight continues - and why even if a Speaker is chosen the fight ain't ending anytime soon.And why this is all Trump playbook 101 - he isn't going anywhere. His election-denying protegees are now in full control of the House GOP. Plus - what President Biden is doing to capitalize on the chaos (hit, it's what he's always done) and why all this crazy has Joe's crystal ball fogging up.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

The one thing Democrats need to understand

A story out of the AP that has us all scratching our heads - why it matters that Gen Z so strongly supported Democrats, and why we have to stamp down the false narrative that Democrats struggled with young voters. Why they think the Sinema defection is ultimately much ado about nothing. Is it a mistake for Sinema? And what it means for our party - what do Democrats everywhere need to understand? Why having someone who doesn't vote with Democrats 100% of the time is still critical to getting things done. And a reader question about how we can keep up the momentum in 2024.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/that-trippi-show/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
