Summary

Jared Yates Sexton welcomes back Nick Hauselman from vacation, and they pull apart the long game that is the Republicans' thirst for authoritarianism. There are only 2 solutions to the political mess we're in, and one of them is to have a strong man impose his will and destroy the 2 party system in the name of "patriotism," which is the path that leads to the destruction of the American experiment. In some breaking news, Tucker Carlson began broadcasting his White Supremacy Hour from Hungary, normalizes the dictatorship of Hungarian Prime Miniser Viktor Orban, so Jared and Nick added some extra analysis of where we're heading with this development.  To support the show and unlock exclusive content, including the additional weekly "Weekender" episode, become a patron at http://www.patreon.com/muckrakepodcast
