Summary

Former CNN and Fox anchor Dave Briggs applauds Elon Musk for trying to launch a brand new political party and would eagerly jump on board to join him in the effort if asked. I think Elon Musk is an utterly horrible human being, this new party is just a vanity project for him, and I wouldn’t want a thing to do with it. So Dave and I did what two people who disagree should do. We sat down and had a conversation.
