  • Simon Rosenberg and Jen Rubin discuss the evolving political landscape leading up to the upcoming elections, focusing on polling patterns, candidate dynamics, and the impact of key issues such as abortion.
    Simon highlights the favorable position of Kamala Harris and the challenges faced by the Republican Party, particularly with candidates like JD Vance. The discussion also touches on media dynamics, the significance of patriotism, and the potential for a shift in voter sentiment as the election approaches.

      Why? The party policies? If so which ones? Conservatism doesn’t seek to improve situations. It seeks to do less or nothing. Case in point, gun control laws. Republicans do not want to govern by majority. They don’t want to do the work the people want them to. Case in point, seating SCOTUS JUSTICES specifically Roe vs. Wade. So again I ask, why would you vote for less results from your representatives?

      @@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342you can be for Harris and against the bombings in Gaza. I know I am. You know why? Because under a Trump administration, Trump wouldn’t even lift a finger, would not send an envoy to try to stop the Gaza madness, and will keep sending weapons to Israel, because Netanyahu and him are friends. The proof? In 2017, Trump knew very well that by moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, this was the open door to push for more colonies and more harm to Palestine, but he did not care, and he didn’t even try to solve the Middle East problem in 4 years. Nothing.
      So my hope is that pressure to get a 2 states deal will be more applied on Netanyahu.

      Absolutely! Get the abuser away from the children.
      It shouldn't take THAT much -- being hospitalized -- to be able to have the guy in jail and his parental rights severed.
      I am a strong ally of family rights, but I especially advocate for children's rights. They have a right to grow up without parental abuse, physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual.
      We teach them love by loving them unconditionally, and if we get irritated with them, that is OUR personal issue to deal with. We teach them with our actions, words, body language, and the level of consciousness we relate to them, etc.
      If we can always stay in a loving place with children, we will be teaching them the most important thing we can: unconditional love, the key to achieving higher consciousness levels.
      We cannot remain in a loving place around an abusive person. There is no place in a family for an abuser. It angered me that this wtf-ing Shady being -- who is he, anyway? Has anyone outside his state ever HEAR of him? -- should hinder all of the thousands of abused women in our country who are yearning to breath free. They should be assisted in escaping abuse, and keeping the children away from the abusive person.
      Not to mention the harm they are doing to Shady's own constituents with their "stupid pet" entry into the campaign.
      Silver lining: Ohio is less blue every day now!

People of color were invisible and second class citizens by every measure and women were the property of the eldest male in the family or their husband. And what they said, goes.

    Republicans never had a lock on patriotism- they just cosplayed as the only patriots. Since Reagan, they have always punched down - his welfare “queens” and odious mental health policies morphed into hating gays, trans, and immigrants. Trump is a point on the continuum of flag waving and hatred. He’s just taken it too far for some Republicans (thank God).

    The “funniest” part is Trump calling Kamala Harris “Marxist and Fascist”. I have to smile at such ignorance. Being from Europe, I know that those two adjectives do not go together, because you can’t be one thing and its contrary, right?
    Trump is definitely fascist ( in the same vein as Hitler and Mussolini), and in the US, I can’t name one politician being a real Marxist.
    Most people think that being liberal means being communist, which is very funny. Those people do not know what communism is, they just use the word. Maybe because it sounds good? Even among the most liberal politicians, nobody has ever asked to create kolkhoze and sovkhoze, of sending back intellectuals to work in the fields, to share your apartment with other families. Now that is communism. Asking for more social justice is not being communist, it is being fair, and asking for more equality.
    Anyway, thank you for this talk. That was very interesting

    I am a HUGE Jennifer Rubin fan. I read everything she writes. Wouldn't have said that 15 years ago, but she has become my touchstone. I just agree with what she writes. She's on the point and I WANT to know what she thinks about the day-to-day grind. Thank you, Jennifer Rubin. There is no one in the media as smart and important as Jennifer Rubin. She is a national treasure.

    I left the Republican Party in 2000, because I thought Bush would destroy our country. Trump makes him look like a Kindergartener.
