Goody, humans. Welcome to the safe space for dangerous ideas. Do you know whether it's going to happen? Is it going to happen? Is it going to happen this week? I have papers here that say it's going to happen this week. Donald Trump. He's going to get arrested or indicted. Are they the same thing? What's being indicted and what's being arrested? Anyway, it's about to happen. It's imminent

now. We've heard about it for years and now Donald J. Trump, former president of the United

States, are going to be thrown in the slumber, in the clinker. He's going to be in an orange

jumpsuit imminently.

That's what says here.

I don't know if that's true or not, but I wanted to talk to somebody.

Well, here's the real truth.

I already had scheduled today's guest to talk about a number of other issues on which he's

absolutely fascinating. And it just so on which he's absolutely fascinating.

And it just so happens that he's also a Washington insider,

which means that he can give us the lowdown, the goss, the dirt,

on what's about to happen to Mr. Donald J. Trump.

But that doesn't even form the bulk of what I'm interested in talking about to Jamie Kurchick.

Jamie, I'm not going to preface this terribly much except to tell you who he is.

He's a journalist.

He's been published everywhere, New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal,

Los Angeles Times, The Atlantic, New York Review of Books, New York Magazine,

Rolling Stone magazine, The Spectator, the Times Literary Supplement.

Frankfurta Allgemeine Zeitung, The Welt.

Do you want to go on?

He's something of a Europe specialist and a sort of history of American politics in the 20th century specialist, if that's fair to say.

He wrote a book six years ago called The End of Europe, Dictators, Demagogues, and the Coming Dark Age.
