WTF (mate)?
So here we are. Just after the most consequential election of my lifetime, and we’ve elected the equivalent of an untrained baboon into the white house. In this podcast episode, we do some soul-searching. And the conclusion is what we hash out. The truth of the matter is that there were legion, if we’re talking about reasons why the election may have been so resoundly lost to the democrats. Some of those reasons make sense, some (like the implicit mysogyny and racism) do not. We get into all the reasons we think, and are sharing those with you now. Let us know if you think we missed something. This is what’s called a “post-mortem” episode, and it’s vitally important that we get this right. Why? Because even though we still believe that Donald Trump is an existential threat to our nation, you’re listening to a bunch of former Marines. We’re not giving up on our country without a fight. What this election tells us is that we need to first understand, adapt, and, as the USMC taught us, overcome. Semper Gumby, fellow DevilDogs. This nation will not bow to fascism on our watch!
