I absolutely loved Rick’s interview with James Carville. James saying he didn’t want Trump to die because he wants to watch Trump suffer and he can’t watch a dead man suffer was absolutely chef’s kiss amazing!!

This show scripts sharp, opinionated political analysis with heavy emphasis on campaign strategy, messaging, and accountability.
