Outstanding pod! Mona, as usual, rocked. I'll note this fabulously exclamatory query among other great moments, "...why either or?" in response to Stephens' astonishingly rigid and narrow view that ..."We've got to decide whether the problem is fundamentally that he (Trump) is a sinister Mussolini wannabe or he's a colossal horse's ass." The idea that this is an either/or scenario is ludicrous and I was frankly dumbfounded that a mind such as his could offer such an inflexible and limited choice of alternatives. Mona's startled amazement was priceless. Not long after, my dumbfounded-ness deepened with this gobsmacking opinion from Stephens', "... I suspect that Trump 2.0 will be pretty much in the form of Trump 1.0. Maybe you disagree." Oh. My. Effing. God! (I screamed to myself internally as I took my morning walk). This is why he cannot endorse Harris. He actually thinks Trump, at the end of the day, in a second term, will be no big deal. So I just want to take a moment to offer my heartfelt gratitude to Mona, Linda, Bill and Damon for absolutely, positively, having none of that. None.! The four of you together eviscerated this in a notably 'civil' fashion in keeping with the pod's values. Well done. This, from Damon, deserved a bloody standing ovation ...." I do think it is accurate to say that during his first administration, he was outmanoeuvred by his staff. They did what they thought needed to be done... And he didn't really know what was going on. And they outsmarted him. That is not going to happen again." This to you, Mr Stephens, Wake the eff up! Vote Harris, you lunatic.
