S2E13 - Walkaway - Conversation with Democrat defector Brandon Straka
Interview with Brandon Straka - interesting and a little combative. Born and raised in rural Nebraska and now a resident of New York City, Brandon created and promotes his #WalkAway Campaign message and his desire to bring a new awareness and understanding to the reality of politics in America today. He left his hatred for Trump and the Democratic party and "walked away" to the MAGA Republicans where he claims his mission is to unify America. We thought his message, while interesting, was a bit extreme in that he feels to fix America means burning the government to the ground...

It all started with an anonymous piece in the NY Times in 2018 from a high source inside the Trump administration who revealed publicly what Trump's cabinet members were saying privately - that the President was unstable and unfit for office.
