The conversations are rich and revealing, unrehearsed and unexpected … and reliably impolitic. A Puck-Audacy joint, new episodes drop every Wednesday and Friday.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-13T08:19:32.336590+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/impolitic-with-john-heilemann-1329107"},"episode":{"title":"Dan Pfeiffer: Why Trump’s “I Don’t Think About Americans” Gaffe is the Worst Gaffe Ever","slug":"dan-pfeiffer-why-trump-s-i-don-t-think-about-americans-gaffe-is-the-worst-gaffe-ever","published_at":"2026-05-15T07:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/impolitic-with-john-heilemann-1329107/dan-pfeiffer-why-trump-s-i-don-t-think-about-americans-gaffe-is-the-worst-gaffe-ever","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/impolitic-with-john-heilemann-1329107","url":"https://tracking.swap.fm/track/v9Uiw3bGr54f6BVZKSyc/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/CAD3255870857.mp3?updated=1778795705","audio_url":"https://tracking.swap.fm/track/v9Uiw3bGr54f6BVZKSyc/pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/CAD3255870857.mp3?updated=1778795705","summary":"John welcomes back Pod Save America cohost and Obama White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer to discuss the forbidding political climate facing Republicans six months out from the midterm elections.
