rich 1.0 James and Al eviscerate Trump’s midterm convention, share encouraging news about Kansas, analyze the factors most salient to voters, and make some 2026 predictions.  Then, they welcome congressional candidate Zach Dembo for KY-06 to discuss corruption, healthcare, and winning over rural voters.  They address the need to meet constituents where they are, the potential to win over independents, how raising the Social Security tax cap is a winning way to tackle income inequality and keep our country solvent, and the importance of restoring Medicaid and ACA subsidies.
