Episode Details

Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election was decisive, and Pennsylvania is a big reason why. Not only did Trump win the commonwealth himself, he funneled strong Republican turnout to key down-ballot races as well. Why did PA flip red, after voters elected a Democratic governor and U.S. Senator just two years ago? What could a second Trump presidency mean for Philadelphia and the support it receives from the federal government? Matt Leon and KYW Newsradio’s reporters give us the rundown of the biggest news in the Philadelphia region this week, including details about an altercation between 76ers superstar Joel Embiid and a local reporter.
