Ep 974: 'But He Promised!'
Description
Episode 974 examines why Trump's illegal war with Iran is splintering the MAGA base and fueling Democratic victories in special elections across the country. Driftglass and Blue Gal trace how Trump won in 2016 by offering Republican voters absolution for the Iraq War disaster—then broke his sacred "No Foreign Wars" promise just like he's covering up the Epstein files. The episode dissects who gets forgiveness in American politics and who doesn't, exposing how Never Trumpers demand we forget Liz Cheney's monstrous lies while they obsess over trivial Democratic moments amplified by Fox News. It's about broken promises, selective amnesia, and why former Republicans now control the narrative while scolding the liberals who were right all along.
