Chris, if you were a Democrat strategist, how would you position the party to retake the White House in 2028, and who would be the candidate that has the best chance to win?
What purpose do you have in continuing highlighting lines from Trump’s appearances? It seems to the reader to be the same over and over and over , ad nauseam. Obviously he doesn’t care, and I am having a hard time seeing the value
One of the issues that bleeds into our politics is the level of further educational attainment. In 1980, 56% of boys who decided to go to a 4 year college kept at it 4 years later, they persisted. Now, only 46.8% of boys who go to a 4 year college from the Class of 2020 are still in school three years later. Boys had better educational outcomes in the 80s than girls, but now fare worse. What do you think is the biggest reason for this educational decline amidst boys? Why did you go to college?
IF America takes over Greenland, I think it’d be due to Arctic shipping routes and national security. If America takes over Greenland or Canada, do you think America would offer those inhabitants citizenship or voting eligibility? Do you think those places would lean D or R?
Why doesn't Garland just drop the illegal records retention (aka "Mar-A-Lago") charges against Trump, Nauda, and deOliveira, then release BOTH Jack Smith reports? Or better yet, let Biden pardon Nauda & deOliveira !
You’re given a magic wand and with it you can undo ONE sporting event result (too many choices if I do a world history/political event). What event are you undoing, and why?
Chris - Do you ever worry that in an effort to be non partisan you are scaling back criticism where it's warranted? During your Tuesday Livestream you mentioned that two modern impeachments blended together for you. Clinton lying about getting pleasured by an intern and Trump withholding congressionally approved military aid to an ally to in exchange for opening a phony investigation into a political rival. Those are comparable to you? Really? One clearly seems far more of an abuse of the office than the other.
Just climbed out of a worm hole listening to various live and studio recordings and videos of “Forever Autumn” by Justin Hayward (of The Moody Blues) from 1978–yes, I said 1978–that was part of a concept album by Jeff Wayne for The War Of The Worlds. Have you ever heard this? It’s a bit melancholy—after all, it is dealing with an alien invasion—but it is spectacular. Give it a listen!
How different would things be today if the Senate has confirmed Merrick Garland as Obama's Supreme Court nominee? The bench would be less conservative, and just about any AG would have been less passive than Garland, it seems to me.
Do you watch your videos? IDK if it's because you always have a 24 oz coffee in your hand or if it's because you're Italian, but you do a lot gesticulating, running your hands through your hair, pushing your sleeves up, shifting in your chair and basically seem to not be able to sit still.
I watch lots of political videos. They all sit calmly while they talk. Do you have ADHD? Just an observation, because I do.

Thanks for all that you do!

What are your 2025 plans with Chuck? I really looked forward to you two on Monday afternoons
You wrote a piece declaring Kari Lake as having run the worst campaign in 2024. Who do you think ran the best campaign in 2024?
He never answered, but I think it was my congressman, Jared Golden.

Do you think the Washington Post will make it through the next few years?
The exodus of talent is alarming.
If Trump happens to drop dead before 20 January, Chris, what happens?
I’m pretty sure the answer is since the election has been certified we would be looking at President J D Vance. Yikes!

What are you setting as the odds for confirmation of RFK, Kash Patel and Linda McMahon?

Chris,

But would any of that matter?
I'll hang up and listen.
