This week we discuss the first presidential debate between Biden and Trump. We also discuss the expectations game and the impact of the debate on undecided voters. Then we talk about the plausibility of a different Democratic nominee. We also get real about our frustration and embarrassment with the debate and the choice we’re facing in November.
Then, in Politicology+ we talk about the increase in political text messages, how you can now get paid to tell your friends to go vote, and what they both show about the political exhaustion we’re seeing.
Joining Ron Steslow on this week’s panel:
Lucy Caldwell (Board Advisor to the Renew Democracy Initiative and advisor to the Forward Party)
James Lynch (Communications Strategist)
