Summary

This episode features Mike and Jay’s responses to the following listener questions: Jay says he’s pro-choice with it comes to people choosing their own health care. Is he also pro-choice when it comes to a woman’s right to choose whether or not to end her pregnancy? Jay suggested that President Trump’s hardball negotiating style brought North Korea back to the bargaining table. But President Trump was the one who initially cancelled the summit, meaning that Jay’s comment is factually inaccurate. Can Jay explain this? How can both parties energize voters to participate and turn out in 2018 and beyond? Aside from judicial nominations, is the Republican Party too short-term oriented in its thinking? What’s the justification for free trade with emerging economies, especially if the result is lost American jobs? Don’t emerging economies need the U.S. more than the U.S. needs them? Government regulation ended child labor, provided us with a safer food supply, and has led to many other societal goods. Does Jay really oppose government regulation? Can he explain his position on regulation? Listener support helps make The Politics Guys possible. If you’re interested in supporting the show, go to politicsguys.com/support.

0:15.2	I'm going to look up what fact-totum made. I was wondering how long... One of these days, I'll actually look it up.
0:20.1	It's so weird. I guess we're going to say wavelength, because as of these days, I'll actually look it up. It's so weird.
0:21.2	I guess we're going to say wavelength, because as I said that, I thought, I wonder how many
0:26.2	listeners have...
0:27.3	I'm sure it's something really good.
0:29.7	I thought it was fitting.
0:31.2	I wanted a term that I felt would fairly encompass your connection to the GOP. And I think it was the closest I could.
0:39.5	Oh, that is. I think as I understand it, I mean sort of sort of like stand in sort of spokes kind
0:45.2	of person. You're not like an office holder, but you've kind of been around and you're a supporter.

1:01.1	to describe your relationship to the party.
1:03.3	So there we go.
