Time to stop all of the hand-wringing and pearl-clutching and do what we all know needs to be done with the Orange Menace. We should take the advice of the former head of the Republican National Committee and lock him up.

M&M Celebrate our 200th Episode by, among other things, declaring Godwin's Law dead. Sure enough, thanks to the Hitler wannabe Donald Trump, invoking the Nazi maniac when discussing Trump is no longer taboo.  It is becoming a normal comparison as well as an accurate one. We also review an example of why we justifiably hate politicians and feature what journalists must do more of.  All this and more...

Donald J. Trump's pursuit of dementia continues to accelerate, and yet he continues to step up to the microphone.  This week, he rolled out a big celebrity to bring a level of class and intellect to one of his rally's. Also, there was an election this past week, and much more.

Now we've done it.  Ken is PISSED off! After seeing and digesting what Hamas did in Israel on October 7th, a large portion of the country - and world - reacts with...antisemitism?  WTF?  And why exactly does a large portion of the world hate Jews exactly?  Also, we take a moment to consider the difficulty that this conflict poses for MAGA.  After all, it has to be real difficult to hate Muslims and be Fascistic anti-Semites at the same time.  Even Dear Leader Donald Trump struggles with this, one minute calling Hezbollah "very smart", and the next claiming to have "done more for Israel than anyone in history".  And we present a "Week in Trump" that you'll not believe.

Mike Johnson.  Until a week ago, nobody would have been able to tell you anything about the Congressman from Louisiana.  This is what happens when you don't do your due diligence.  As Morning Joe tells us, the coup of 2024 is now in progress right before our eyes.  We take a deep look at the new speaker.  We also discuss another massacre in the U.S., and yet another "Week in Trump".

While the Mid-East burns, and the United States Congress devolves into farcical chaos, and Donald Trump tries to remain relevant while his business empire and very liberty is under increasing and imminent threat, President Biden may have had his best week yet.  His steady hand, and experience in world affairs is being recognized already as playing a huge role in so far keeping a very bad situation from getting worse.  We discuss, with lots of help from the late night comedians.

The world's collective attention span has predictably moved on from the situation in Central Europe to the situation in Israel and Gaza. We discuss.  Also, the shit show that is the Republican Party continues.  And Trump tries desperately to keep his face in the news.  What a week.

As we record, Israel and Hamas are at war, and the only certainties are that the brunt of the horrors will be suffered by innocents on both sides.  We discuss the latest as of this writing.  Also, nearly a week after the Pride of Bakersfield, Kevin McCarthy, was ousted in a humiliating fashion, we can't help but pour it on.  Oh, and Rick wins the bet with Ken from last week.

Polls confirm that a strong majority of Americans want to have the winner of the popular vote named as President.  Is this not the very definition of democracy?  But it will never happen because it would take amending the Constitution, which Red states will never go along with.  Or might it happen?  There is something called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact that is already well in motion.  We discuss.  Also, more Trump idiocy to share.

Ignoring the mistakes made in 2016, the American media is again approaching the 2024 election as if it's just another election cycle with the Democratic President facing a Republican challenger.  They take horse race polls, report on the results, act as if these are normal times and continue to give Trump a platform to repeat and spread his lies.  Legitimate journalists are no match for someone who steamrolls them in interviews and only offer up meek resistance using words like "disproven" or "debunked".  When will someone sit forward when interviewing him and challenge him by calling him a "goddamned liar", or threatening to stop the interview and toss him from the studio if he continues to show such contempt to their audience by lying? And what do we hope to possibly gain from presidential debates when they are packed with a studio audience full of supporters and no fact checkers willing to call them out on their lies?

Oh, and if you roll your eyes with comparisons between Trump and Hitler, see if today's discussion and examples doesn't at least give you pause.
