Looking back, looking forward. Republicans roll, Kamala krashes, choice wins, but is liberty losing?

Episode 45: Looking back, looking forward. Republicans roll, Kamala krashes, choice wins, but is liberty losing? The team took a look at their election predictions and considered some national level takeaways from the 2024 elections, including an interesting look at the total vote counts for the two leading candidates in 2020 and 2024 as Donald Trump’s overall votes were rather consistent but with a big drop-off in votes between Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. They also discussed the seeming inconsistency of many voters as they gave the GOP a strong victory and also tended to support more liberal stances on abortion and drug rights. The conversation ended with a discussion on the potential political landscape in the US for the next year, in Virginia and more broadly, and closed with continued calls for more options and more freedom.
