Summary

Following Biden dropping out of the race, Al and James tear apart the GOP’s reaction to Kamala’s rise, rebuke their racism, and lay out JD Vance’s attacks on Trump before welcoming seasoned pollster Jim Gerstein.  They discuss Kamala’s strong opening bid and why the American people are happy to have a different choice. Then, they encourage her campaign to focus on the rising cost of living, reforming immigration, and protecting abortion rights.  They also react to Netanyahu’s reception in Washington, explain his precarious political situation, and highlight the electoral issues with Trump’s VP choice.

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!
