Description

In today’s episode of the Mad About Montana Podcast, Erikshows how big of a nerd he actually is by making Star Wars references on “May The Fourth.”

In the end, though, his analogy to today’s political scene makes complete sense since we recently watched the Montana Legislature and United States Congress gradually cede power to Gov. Greg Gianforte and President Donald Trump, much like the Galactic Senate did to the Emperor. Orsomething nerdy like that.

Listen in as Erik and Bill talk about how today’s DemocraticParty is acting more like Jar Jar Binks instead of the Democratic Party of yesteryear. They desperately want to do something good, but they just don’t know how to. Thatis obvious as the Montana Senate Democrats Facebook page bragged about Montana’s envious Medicaid model, even after Gianforte shattered that model like Luke Skywalker did with the Death Star.

Listen as they take on the cult of the right and, moreimportantly, the very-real cult of the left.

Listen as Erik offers praise for the handful of Democrats whoconsistently showed that they were voting based on their values instead of making deals that are setting themselves up for future failure.

Then, listen as Bill encourages everyone to attend a meetingat 9:30 a.m. Monday at the Butte School District Administration Building (111 N. Montana St.) to see Mike Foley and Sid DeBarathy make a presentation about their complaint of discrimination against female athletes in the Mining City.

May The Fourth be with you.
