Summary
Take a breath. Count to five. Ignoring the misdirection, what is Trump really up to? Jefferson chats with Alex Zaitchik, author of 'The Gilded Age, a Wild Ride Through Donald Trump's America'. ~~~ Then- what should we call the 'conservatives' now that we can see and must live with the consequences of three decades of AM hate radio? How about 'Regressive'? or 'Repugnant-can'? Jefferson introduces his deep thoughts on the importance of language and messaging when up against the billionaire propaganda machine. ~~~ And, Bob Ney with Talk Media News has been watching the Iran situation very carefully.
