The Social Contract with Joe Walsh

For 9 years, all he's done is spew hate, spread division, and incite violence. Every day. That's what he's done. Gone after individual people and groups of people in hateful, dangerous ways. So it's not surprising that eventually a sick, crazy person would resort to violence against him. It's wrong. But it's not surprising.

It's time for Trump and any major party candidate for president to receive the same level of security that the sitting president and vice president receive. And I'm glad Trump is unharmed. And what happened yesterday doesn't take away from the fact that Trump IS a threat to democracy, and democracy IS on the ballot this November.

Two days ago, Donald Trump took a 9/11 denier with him to a 9/11 memorial service. He took with him as his special guest someone who believes 9/11 was an inside job, committed by our own government. And she was Trump's special guest at ground zero. So all we can assume is that Trump is a 9/11 conspiracist as well.

Springfield, Ohio is a city of 60,000 people with a population of almost 20,000 Haitian migrants. This current situation raises a whole bunch of important issues. That demand conversation. But trying to scare people about Haitians "eating people's dogs & cats" won't get us to any meaningful conversation

There is one big takeaway from the reaction to the Presidential debate last night: Trump has turned the GOP into a party of sore losers. PS They aren't eating dogs in Ohio

I sat down with Professor Ilana Redstone (@irakresh) whose book, "The Certainty Trap," just came out. If you care about how dangerously divided this country is, you MUST read this book. Healing the divide goes well beyond civil discourse. To heal the divide, we must transform how we think. Have a listen.

We hold Donald Trump to a lower standard than we do other candidates and, really, other human beings. He says so much mean, cruel, ignorant, and dishonest stuff that we just gloss over how truly disqualifying the stuff he say is. No other candidate is treated that way. We treat Trump like a child.

JD Vance will appear by Tucker Carlson's side in a week. He also prerecorded an interview with Tucker yesterday. All AFTER Tucker gave a giant platform to a Holocaust denier. So...Vance must have no problem with denying the Holocaust. Right? That and more today on The Social Contract with Joe Walsh
