Start Me Up: Greg Olear

from Start Me Up with Kimberley A. Johnson Hosted by Kimberley A. Johnson

Greg Olear is back! He's the author of Rough Beast, PREVAIL columnist & podcaster, and co-host of The Five 8 on YouTube. Topics: We talked about Gavin Newsom's political strategy, and how his engagement with Trump is both effective and entertaining. Greg highlighted the importance of strong opposition leadership in the US, and compared current political dynamics to the rise of Hitler in Nazi Germany, emphasizing the lack of effective resistance in the early stages. Several Democratic governors are showing up for democracy, and more Democratic leaders need to step up their game. Melania came up--why is no one questioning her about her thoughts on Epstein and his relationship with her husband? All that and more!
