I completely agree with Ana. Pence is quiet crazy which is much scarier. Trump is big loud -in your face- crazy but you can see him coming. My hope is that Trump has roused the people so much that Pence will be held to account as well. Or that he gets caught with Trump and they both go down.
I agree with Ana on Pence. Not only is he savvier than Trump, but he’s from the establishment so the mainstream media will go right back to not questioning the administration at all. This isn’t to say they’re doing much better now, but at least they question and fact-check Trump more than they did with Obama or Bush. With Pence in office, they’ll start telling progressives to stop protesting and to, “give President Pence a chance to govern.” Likewise, congressional Dems who are barely resisting Trump now would likely resist Pence even less.
Also, Trump is not doing a commission on election integrity because he is stupid and saw that map as Cenk says. He is doing it because he wants to change and amend the National Voter Registration Act to make it harder for minorities to vote. This was on Kris Kobachs memo as he was going in to speak with Trump before he became President. I learned this from “Empire Files: The Hidden Purging of Millions of Voters” on YouTube.Please keep an eye out for this!
Forget impeaching Trump. Progressives need to tie all Republicans to Trump. They will sink in 2018 and 2020.
Forty-two states. Ha! Out goal should be 50 states. An actually good progressive candidate could win all the electoral votes in 2020. That person, man or woman, should tie every Republican candidate to Trump and let them sink quietly into the swamp.
Cenk, man, tell me that you wouldn’t like a President Franken. God, if we can’t get Bernie or Warren, Franken would be a HUGE success still as a President. I’m so thankful for what Franken has done for Minnesota. Sure, he’s more old school, but if we have to get an old school Democrat, at least he’s actually progressive.

CENKS THESIS: “Trump is too stupid to get caught”
FLAW: If he is stupid wouldn’t he have already gotten caught? Wouldnt the leak prone intelligence community already have leaked this out?

This is your friendly reminder that Mike Pence believes and wants to use tax dollars to shock the gay out of teenagers (among other things)
Nice Post Game wrap up Cenk.

You are deluding yourself, at least 20 states would vote for Hitler over any democrat.
Point taken, but not literally hitler. The red states would vote libertarian over hitler……I hope?
A PROGRESSIVE could take all 50 states. A Democrat, not so much.
Cenk. Ana. Please don’t drive me crazy!
Fine point of logic: The opposite of “All x is y” is not “All x is not y”. The opposite is “Not all x is y”.
Example: The opposite of “All politics is local” is not “All politics is not local”. It’s: “Not all politics is local”.
Even in the age of the Internet, some politics is local.
So, good point, Cenk!
We now return to points that matter.
Cenk, man, tell me that you wouldn’t like a President Franken. God, if we can’t get Bernie or Warren, Franken would be a HUGE success still as a President.

Lol, Cenk pronounced coifed as “coyfed”, it’s “quaffed” buddy, lol, love you anyway. Too Strong!
thx so much for the show i really appreciate the passion, the insight and the differing opinions.
i think Cenk is overestimating the democrats for 2020.
Waiting for an impeached Trump with an overdue loan payment to the Russians.
Hope you have a lot of patience. Any possible impeachment isn’t going to happen until at least 2018.
