Hawks, Hawkeyes, and The Schmittification of the GOP

About this episode

On today's podcast, The Washington Monthly's Bill Scher talks with Matt about: — Sen. Eric Schmitt’s attempted perjury trap on Jack Smith. — The Atlanta Hawks vs. Iowa Hawkeyes mix-up, the poster-board texts, Katie Britt’s face, and why Smith pausing made it worse for Republicans — Why this hearing happened just weeks before the midterms — and why it’s a microcosm of Republicans placating Trump instead of addressing cost of living — Broader diagnosis: a party that’s sloppy, shoots first, and can’t distance from an unpopular president — Why Sen. Susan Collins is so resilient, and why Troy Jackson is underperforming in Maine. — And MUCH more!
