Dementia Donald’s Dance Party (Guest: Gen. General William Enyart )

30 minutes

Dave Whamond, Canada, PoliticalCartoons.com

On our political radar this week:

This week’s guest: General William Enyart. Before his election to Congress, Enyart was Adjutant General of the Illinois National Guard. General Enyart served 43 years in the Air Force and National Guard.

Donald Trump’s increasingly bizarre behavior peaked at a bizarre campaign town hall in which he only answered 4 questions and then spent 39 minutes playing D.J. and doing his Fred Astaire impression.

Trump has demanded that Kamala Harris be tested for mental acuity – a clear case of projection, with growing calls that Trump get tested as he shows signs of advancing dementia.

Kamala Harris got another presidential debate on Fox News, but with alleged journalist Bret Baier substituting for Donald Trump.

Trump continued to hide from any media that might ask him a tough question, limiting his interviews to friends and allies … a.k.a. The Sean Hannity Fan Club

Dozens of leaders of America’s national security system are warning that Trump poses a massive security risk. We’ll be joined by two of them: former Democratic congressman General William Enyart, and former Republican congressman Christopher Shays.

The already heated race for U.S. Senator from Michigan is getting more heated. Elissa Slotkin continues to hold a narrow lead over Mike Rogers who continues to take blows over his residency, the January 6 insurrection, his changing views on abortion rights and his call to pull a half-billion in federal funding for a job-creating GM plant renovation in Lansing

The Trump campaign is running targeted ads saying Kamala Harris is totally pro-Israel and totally pro-Palestine. A Trump Super Pac funded mailer makes a total lie: that Medicare had been canceled —along with a scrawled add-on in cursive: “I hope you can afford to lose your insurance! — Kamala Harris XOXO.”

Keeping our democratic republic had some major victories in court this week in both Alabama and, more significantly, in Georgia.

National Security Leaders for America leads a bipartisan collection of 741 former senior national security leaders supporting Kamala Harris. The organization includes 230 general and flag officers including 15 retired four-star generals and admirals, 10 cabinet secretaries, 10 service secretaries, and 148 ambassadors. They view Donald Trump as an existential threat to our national security. We are joined by two of those leaders, both former members of Congress.
