11/27 Never Trust ‘Never Trump’ w/ MR Crew

November 27, 2017

Good day! On today’s Majority Report, the MR crew breaks down the news, including: The archbishop of Canterbury doesn’t understand why American evangelicals support Trump, Bill Kristol finds his inner careerist on Twitter, Ben Wittes of the Brookings Institute figures out Trump is bad, and neocon David Frum is equally disingenuous. Come back and talk to us when you #NeverTrumpers bring something to the table.

On the fun half: John from San Antonio thinks the Democrats can overcome gerrymandering, Sam will win the lottery before Trump is impeached, Ronald Raygun bemoans the low bar for entry into #theresistance (and workshops an idea for a movie), Mulvaney is going to “drain the swamp” by destroying the CFPB, Breitbart’s Joel Pollack defends Roy Moore with an analogy to Ringo Starr, Jamie discusses socialist feminism with Tammy from Texas, Geraldo thinks Trump is “punching down” at Time Magazine, and the gang discusses the false dichotomy between class and identity.
