The latest next level I see on the podacst is electing the predator.

BTW I'm not a deadbeat, I'm a subscriber, meaning after Jan 20 2025 they'll be coming for me.

I don't understand how all this works. I looked for this on my iphone and couldn't find it. It's on the desktop.

F-- this century, but please help us old people out ...

You do whatever works for you, as I enjoy listening to the 3 of you whenever/wherever.

I couldn't watch it live, so I hope they post a podcast of it.

Thanks, I got an email for the pod, I don't watch live for a variety of reasons...

I keep waiting for you guys to give desantis adjectives like you do for no labels and other bad people. I can't tell if you can't tell desantis is an ugly, nasty hate monger wanna be authoritarian or not because you talk about him like he's a normie? 🤷

Nah, they just think he is more normal than Trump, and would rather Trump didn't win the primaries.

There's nothing normal about him with the authoritarian book banning and undemocratic laws Florida is passing 😱

Yeah, but, the common wisdom is it is all preformative, and he will have to back track or stop it to win in a general...he is trying to steal Trump's base for him, whether that works or not is another problem ( and most of what he is doing is being taken down in courts )., he may be being an asshole, but he isn't Trump by a long shot.

I suggest you lose the 3 ferns, make a slightly tighter frame, and make Sarah appear as though not photoshopped in from "Terror of Tiny Town"

What a delight it was to see the three of you interacting in person - I had no idea how tall JVL is compared to Sarah.

I'm half embarrassed to say but can I say nice Dad bod, JVL? Is it okay if I'm old enough to be his mom? 🧓

In what universe did Trump keep his word?

Sarah- are the only people in your polls Republicans?

In the Fox Cinematic Universe! I once argued with a neighbor who asserted that Trump built the wall! "Promises made, promises kept."

WHY do you all put forth so much fire and support about the man who is turning Florida into a fascist state, who cancelled the law that would keep him from running for president while governor. Why? the insanity of his remoulding of american values is disgusting. I will never want a leader (?) like this to run this country and represent the USA to the global community.

I'm unsure whether you're addressing the Bulwark crew, or some generalized group of DeSantis supporters. If it's the former:

They don't support DeSantis. They are actually quite critical of him.

They support Biden for the general election.

They support not-Trump for the Republican nominee because they feel Trump is a uniquely malignant force that should be kept from the White House at all costs (I agree). As poorly as DeSantis appears to be doing, he's still the general favorite for Trump's greatest competition.

Fantastic discussion. JV needed to turn his mike toward him. Do more of these.

The media seems to focus on the presidential elections (2024). But the really bad laws originate at the state level, and those elections happen almost every year. Sometimes more than once a year. So a question I hear from anchors on MSNBC and CNN, like, "how do these ant-choice laws affect Biden's chances of winning in 2024" are tangential. We need GOTV for state legislations and governors.

I still cant get over the fact you now have a studio in “The Worldwide HQ of The Bulwark”!!!!!!! I mean... AMAZING AND WONDERFUL. Can we get a tour of the place in Mr Zoom? Please?

Too bad I have a working lunch today so cannot catch it live. Have fun doing it in person and cannot wait for all the details from the NYC roadshow.

So it’s either I watch Man City v Real Madrid ⚽️🏟️ or you three live today at 3:00. It’s actually a tough decision, which is a major compliment from this soccer loving Europhile 🤣 🇮🇪

Open the game on your tv and open the gang here on a different device. We are now a multi-screen culture.
