This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, the brilliant businesspeople and billionaires that are currently running the country are driving the economy off a cliff; as Donald Trump’s approval ratings slide into net-negative territory at record speed, are we great again yet? Then our neighbors to the north get rightfully pissed at American voters for putting this madman back in the Oval Office -- this time with his North American imperial ambitions! We attempt to gently and politely remind them that more people voted for someone else than voted for Donald Trump. Sorry! Then, Denver’s Mayor, Mike Johnston, goes to Washington DC, and it goes a lot better than it could have, unless you’re a Republican ad maker. And finally we check in with a few of Colorado’s Republican Members of Congress to see how they’re handling the whole governing thing. Spoiler alert: Not well!
But first, Dr. Sarah Wilson Sokhey of the University of Colorado joins us to talk Ukraine, Russia, and whether we’ve ever seen a President of the United States or an entire political party parrot the propaganda of a foreign adversary.
That’s it for this episode! If you loved watching and/or listening to it as much as we loved recording it, you can thank us by subscribing to the pod wherever you listen, following us over on New Old Twitter AKA Bluesky, subscribing to our shiny new channel on YouTube, smashing that subscribe button on our Substack, and sharing this episode with your friends, your enemies, and your 8th favorite Member of Congress from Colorado!
