Porkins Policy Radio episode 164 2018 Election Special with JP Sottile and Ed Opperman

JP Sottile joined me in the first hour for our 2018 Midterm Election Special. JP talked about the massive amounts of data coming in regarding this highly contested midterm. We talked about the role of women voters, MeToo, and the side shows like the “Migrant Caravan.” Later JP and I discussed several interesting Senate races including Missouri. JP also talked about Trump’s use of neo-fascist imagery and rhetoric to energize his base.

Ed Opperman joined me for the second hour of the election special. We talked about the broken healthcare system and support for universal healthcare. Ed talked about the watered down socialists and alleged left leaning candidates like Beto O’Rourke and Ocasio Cortez. We discussed whether these politicians are actually making things worse for us. We also touched on Ted Cruz, Curtis Sliwa, and the dangers of iphone’s.
