Summary

James and Al contrast Senator Menendez with the crimes of Trump, preview the Republican field before the debate, and welcome PA Congressman Brendan Boyle. They discuss the likelihood of a government shutdown at Republican hands, why it’s proof that MAGA owns the party, and the financial dangers it poses. From lost job creation, cuts to schools, leaving law enforcement and the military without pay, and raising the risk of recession, is this an opportunity to flip the congressional seats that elected Republicans but were won by Biden in the general?

Email your questions to James and Al at politicswarroom@gmail.com or tweet them to @politicon. Make sure to include your city, we love to hear where you’re from!
