[4:50] Trump’s response? “Democrats and ‘the media’ are over-exaggerating”
[6:30] Rudy Giuliani has a podcast. Should we laugh?

[10:42] Why Republicans love simple answers
[11:44] How should the media respond to Trump’s lies?
[14:25] The media’s problem with both-side-ism
[17:00] Call to Action: Contact your Members of Congress and demand funding for vote-by-mail in the coming election.
Moment of Uplift:

Democratica is the political podcast that will help you understand WTF is happening without sacrificing your mental health. Hosts and longtime best friends, AJ Johnson and Stuart Max, take an unconventional look at the political news of the day, recorded in Mitch McConnell’s backyard.
Stuart is a Democratic political insider and news junky who gives sharp and savvy insight on the news of the day. AJ avoids politics at all costs in order to preserve his mental health. But. He. Has. Questions.
Together, they make sense of what’s broken in America and what it will take to fix it. The result is an entertaining, easily digestible half hour that won’t make you feel like you’re losing your mind.
Stuart Max is a 13-year veteran of Capitol Hill and founder of OD Action, Occupy Democrats’ partner action network with more than 250,000 members.
AJ Johnson is a writer and performer who isn’t about to let Donald Trump interrupt his self-care.
