    Excellent job Rachel. The parallels between the GOP between then and now is chilling. Why don’t they have any backbone or maybe they are just lemmings.

  • Great except for her grammar

    Why is it that the end of listening to such a brilliant episode? Is then spoiled by poor grammar. Why does Rachel say “this episode was produced by myself” instead of the simple “this episode was produced by me”. That is terrible grammar.

It depends. We have to make sure that it does. It doesn't automatically do it.
Bonus Episode: Rachel Maddow in Conversation with Tony Kushner
Q: When you meet a MAGA Trump supporter, can you offer us some tips to open a conversation with this person?
I believe in human to human connection, but there's no magic fix to change anyone's mind. You can't argue them into seeing the light, but being a human being to them is powerful.
