9/15 Is Schumer the Trump Whisperer? w/ Cliff Schecter & Isabel Gillies

September 15, 2017

Casual Friday today, featuring Cliff Schecter (@CliffSchecter) and Isabel Gillies (@IsabelGillies).

Trumpkins are burning MAGA hats over possible DACA deal.

With Cliff, we discuss Chuck Schumer and Trump’s new bromance and the wisdom of Bernie’s Medicare-for-All push.

The with Isabel, why Isabel feels like she’s grown up since the last time she was on and how she makes her children uncomfortable when eating out. Also why she wants to sue snapchat.

On the fun half – Rand Paul wants medicare Bernie’s shine, Trump calls Jeff Sessions an idiot, centrist Dems look for ways to embrace Medicare for All, Bill O’Reilly thinks confederate statues are a waypoint for leftists on the way to destroy the constitution, and your calls and IMs.
