Joe Biden

The Silicon Valley tech bros might be lining up behind Dean Phillips. If that happens, we have to knock it down.

Don't miss this episode! It was back room intrigue, behind the curtain strategy, and life imitating high school. The guys talk about what GOP primary contenders can do to shift their numbers and who they should attack - and what shifts they're already seeing in the electorates attitudes that bode well for President Biden...and so much more!

Stuart Stevens explains why Biden is in a stronger position than Trump. Ask yourself, are there a lot of new customers who want to buy what Trump's selling?

Special guest Michael Podhorzer explains why living and dying by every poll between now and next November is pointless.

Strategist and data guru Michael Podhorzer joins the guys for a deep dive and some fascinating alternative ways to view the race and numbers heading into 2024. Think Trump has the GOP vote wrapped up? Believe Biden is losing Gen Z? This conversation will make you question everything - in the best of ways.

Longtime "Reliable Sources" host and author Brian Stelter joins the show with a sneak preview of his new book "Network of Lies" - and you guessed it - it's all about FOX's descent into a propaganda machine. The inside info Brian finds has to be read to be believed. Does Fox's former chief propagandist believe his own rhetoric? Why Brian thinks Tucker has talked himself into it. And behind-the-scenes after Joe Biden's win in 2020 at FOX -- why everyone was whispering the truth while shouting the lie.

Simon Rosenberg weighs in on Biden's meeting with Xi, the ZERO-inflation last month, abortion access and the GOP's continued miscalculations, treason and mass deportation.

This week on The Enemies List, Rick is joined by comedian, filmmaker, and activist, Toby Morton. Toby is also known for his legendary voice role as Scott Tenorman in "South Park." Together, they discuss his journey from animation to the sharp edges of political parody, crafting websites that humorously skewer prominent figures in today's tumultuous political landscape.

Joe and Alex recap a big week for Democrats - and for Joe Biden. Ohio, Virginia, and Kentucky all make it clear: when voters see MAGA coming for their rights... it doesn't turn out very well for MAGA. Pour one out for Glenn Youngkin's presidential aspirations. Why Joe sees big things for Andy Beshear. Plus: Yeah, they do talk about *that* poll. And the latest debate -- and second place in Iowa is going to matter even more now.

Rick Wilson writes: "I don’t pity Joe Biden because he’s old. I honor him for still doing the work that has broken younger and stronger men. I admire him for staying in the arena."

This week on The Enemies List, Rick Wilson is joined by Tom Nichols. Tom is a staff writer for The Atlantic, as well as a former professor. Together, they discuss the immaturity of most billionaires, why American colleges and universities feel the need to have corporate takes on controversial world events, what the faces of the Republican Party are keeping from the people, and more.

"During these trying times in which one of our major political parties has abandoned the basic principles on which the United States was founded and seceded from the world of fact, on an almost daily basis Heather Cox Richardson brings hope and truth to vast numbers of us," writes Robert McElvaine.

The Silicon Valley tech bros might be lining up behind Dean Phillips. If that happens, we have to knock it down.

Tremendous wealth + ego + unscrupulous political operatives = a blow to American democracy.

"(Hamas) has no interest in a two-state solution and peaceful coexistence. The only sort of peace they seek is a Carthaginian peace—one of the utter annihilation and slaughter of an entire people," write Robert McElvaine.

Given the massive disconnect between what the pundits and polls predict and what has happened through 2023, Democrats have no reason to be discouraged this time around. Republicans? If they're not worried yet, they should be.

"While the Republican Party uses the chaos and outrage spectacle to dominate our public sphere, Biden’s presidential achievements receive little attention," writes Dr. Jennifer Mercieca and she suggests we all might need to ask ourselves why that is.

We talk about this week's GOP debate as quickly as we can - and why we really don't need to talk about it. Joe wonders about how a campaign team could let their candidates walk into a mess like that - and what they're supposed to be doing about it. Joe's also not happy about the polls - but not about the numbers they show. What numbers do actually matter? And why voters break away from President Biden when given the No Labels option - and what we have to do about it.

Rick Wilson: "They hate Donald Trump with the fire of a billion suns" but they'll be lining up at Trump's sloppy, crime and avarice-infested trough as soon as they accept the inevitable - Trump will be the GOP nominee for 2024.

Trump can't legally buy a gun while the Dems can't stop shooting themselves in the foot with their criticism of Biden and foolishness of playing footsie with a Biden primary challenge. As Rick would say, #GetYouShitTogether. From a potential shutdown to a fire sale on Trump properties, this episode has it all. And who knew our strategists are Swifties?!
