The Worst People Are Happy (With Tim Miller)

The worst people believe their worldview has been validated, while the best people are uncertain, scared, and angry. But we have to stay focused on the menace, including the threat to officials Trump may target for revenge—and the immigrants whose cheap and willing labor helped build our economy. Tim Miller joins Lovett for a special crosspost with the The Bulwark Podcast. -- [Speech by Otto Wels in March 1933] (https://ghdi.ghi-dc.org/sub_document.cfm?document_id=1497) [The 'The Bulwark' Podcast] (https://www.thebulwark.com/s/bulwarkpodcast) ...

So we ARE going back

This week, Lovett or Leave It takes a big sip of coffee and reads who won the 2024 presidential election. Donald Trump takes the White House, Republicans take the Senate, and RFK Jr. takes the fluoride out of our water the first moment he can. Lovett opens the floor to questions from his audience like, “What the hell?” and “Are you kidding me?" and we cycle through the five stages of being an American, before taking our listeners on a much needed joyride.
