Summary

I spent way too much of my day yesterday explaining to Trump voters that that image of Trump as the next pope wasn’t “fake news.” Time well spent. Stephen Miller thinks the American people are cruel. He’s wrong. Republicans are growing “antsy” with Trump and his tariffs. Cowards. And, American support for Ukraine and for free trade is growing. Good news. All on today’s show.
