#408 The Blue Waves Comes To Shore
from American Fever Dream · host Betches Media
Kaitlin and Amanda are back to celebrate signs that Democrats have won both Senate races in Georgia, taking back the chamber for the first time since 2014. They break down returns that show Black voters once again buoyed Democrats to victory, and look at the success of Trump’s GOP voter suppression efforts. They discuss how the Georgia strategy took root in the 2000s, and why it proves that turning out Democratic voters works better than appealing to the middle. Finally, they consider how the Senate will function with a 50/50 split and why Joe Manchin just became the most powerful person in the Senate. Learn more about your ad choices.
