Mike Cortese joined to continue the conversation we started last week before the (now reversed) firing of Jimmy Kimmel.
Cortese is taking on Representative Andy Ogles in the Tennessee’s U.S. House 5th District race. Ogles is the Congressman who Mother Jones called “President Donald Trump’s most cloying lackey,” and it’s a title he’s earned.
But today,
and Cortese talked about the pending National Guard deployment to Memphis, which will do nothing to solve any of the problems the people of that city are facing and, in fact, will likely exacerbate any tensions that already exist.But will it play to the base? Maybe. At some point, however, it’s possible that even Trump’s base will get tired of seeing American cities occupied by American troops. Of course, if our freedom to speak our opinions is quashed, then it won’t matter who is against it.

Have a comment? I love to hear ‘em.
