Thom wonders what it will take for Republicans to wake up and admit that Trump is a criminal who is bad for America. ------- Thom asks when Democrats will stop listening to Republicans for policy advice, and argues that compromising with Republicans got Clinton and Obama virtually nothing. Callers add to his thoughts interestingly. ------- Thom asks what happens when gangsters run government? Thugocracy is the new model for nations. Trump's lawyer just warned congress that Trump would not leave peacefully if he lost in 2020, maybe even call out armed supporters to start a second US civil war. Thugs all over the world have been doing this for a long time, and now the President of the United States has spent 2 years praising strongmen like Bashir, Kim, Duterte, Putin, and Bolsinaro. Thom argues that of all the reasons to impeach this mob boss in the White House, this is the strongest. ------- Did Rep Matt Gaetz intimidate Michael Cohen during his testimony? Thom welcomes guest Dena Grayson, MD, PhD, physician, researcher, and politician who was seated behind Cohen during the hearing, a great seat to watch Gaetz' threatening body language during the proceedings. ------- And finally, callers try to answer Thom's question- will Republicans wake up to the criminality of Trump, and how should Democrats talk with or work with the minions of the monied conservative machine?
