Summary
This time John talks about the hectic snarled mess of traffic he had to deal with heading to work due to barriers and security checkpoints ahead of Trump attending Game 3 of the NBA Finals as the guest of billionaire Knicks and Madison Square Garden owner James Dolan. He discusses the boos from the crowd and the shot of him snoozing during the game. He also talks about Trump throwing a tantrum and abruptly ending an interview on on Sunday's Meet The Press after news anchor Kristen Welker questioned him over 'rigged election' claims. Next, John chats with Professor Corey Brettschneider and they talk about Trump's latest antics and the ongoing struggle for democracy in America. They dissect Trump's recent interview on Meet the Press, where he threw a tantrum over election legitimacy and voter fraud claims. The conversation turns to the DOJ's controversial moves and the implications for civil rights and governance. Then last but not least comedian Rhonda Hansom is back, sharing her insights on the absurdity of the current political climate and the comedic gold it provides. Together, they explore the intersection of politics, comedy, and the peculiarities of the American psyche.
