The only way is up now for DeSantis. As he begins his campaign in person, what new set of circumstances could hand him the win even after this debacle. A tornado, physical or legally hitting Trump, is not out of the question. We look at Ron’s chances alongside some other politicians in the running and where they fall in the GOP rankings. (Go to www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad to access the full.)

How did one woman’s complaint lead to the banning of American poet laureate Amanda Gorman’s poem in a Miami school district? Marion discusses DeSantis’ regressive laws in Florida and how they’re impacting education, such as controlling the discussion of slavery in classrooms across the state.

What’s going to happen with the debt ceiling? As Marion feels my eyes roll back into my head discuss this never ending snooze fest of a news story. Could this trigger a global recession? And do American’s want a president that is right and conciliatory or wrong and strong? As always, Marion explains.

I’ll be doing my latest standup show in Liverpool, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Armagh, Kilkenny, Naas, Birmingham, London and Tralee to why not grab a ticket while you can. All the other dates have fully sold out!
