8: Is THIS What Democracy Looks Like?

Description

What’s happening at town halls across the United States? Is there a popular groundswell of resistance and opposition to President Trumps agenda building momentum on the Left? Is it sustainable? Would a “Tea Party of the Left” be a constructive or destructive force in American politics?

In this episode, we welcome our first guest co-host—Sarah Ullman, a filmmaker, activist, and co-founder of the grassroots SuperPAC, One Vote at a Time. We discuss our experiences in recent months attending town halls and political protests, we’re tough on CA Senator Dianne Feinstein, we talk about 2018, the instant messenger handles of our youth, and further destroy the idea that the government is or should be run like a business. This is Robot F. Kennedy.
