371: Trump's Slush Fund with Fred Wertheimer

James and Al report on this week’s elections, breaking down Trump’s continued dominance in the Republican party, Democrats' ability to win over party switchers, and an energized Black electorate.  Then, they call out the miscalculations Trump made in the Iran war and expose the effect of media ownership on the political landscape before welcoming government accountability advocate Fred Wertheimer.  They discuss Trump’s settlement with the IRS, the ways he’s enriched himself and his supporters, the difference between the Trump and Biden DOJ, and the dangers of corruption.Email your questions to James and Al at [email protected] or tweet them to @politicon.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you’re from!
