Episode Description

After reading a mildly depressing script handed him by the suits in the Dispatch C-suite, Jonah Goldberg rallies to take a bludgeon to democratic economic illiteracy. Along the way, he ruminates on the Indiana primaries, RINOs, Trump as a caricature, Rubio vs. Vance, sycophant tryouts, AOC’s voice, California’s gubernatorial race, billionaires earning their money, Napoleon, liberalism’s definition, and Iran.
