Hurricane Michael has brutalized the Florida panhandle, and journalist Jamal Khashoggi disappeared after entering a Saudi consulate in Turkey. In the midst of these crises, the President is focused on campaigning. We discuss the news and his USA Today op-ed about American healthcare and the partisan divide. That discussion leads us into a deep dive about the practicality of changing the structure of our national healthcare.  Recommended Resources: Hurricane Michael Death Toll Missing writer shows Saudi Arabia’s dark side Khashoggi mystery exposes rift between U.S. allies Turkey, Saudi Arabia Donald Trump Lands in Saudi Arabia on First Overseas Visit of Presidency Trump reluctant to cut off arms sales to Saudis in response to Khashoggi's disappearance Donald Trump's USA Today op-ed Fact-checking President Trump’s USA Today op-ed on ‘Medicare-for-All’ If you're new to Pantsuit Politics, we recommend checking out these past episodes to get a taste of who we are and what we do: Kavanaugh Weariness, Tax Fraud, and Georgia Politics (October 2018) Our 9/11 series (Parts One, Two, Three, Four, and our Memorial special) The WHCA Dinner, a #MeToo Moment, and Faith and Politics with Jen Hatmaker (May 2018) Feminism and the Pro-Life Movement with Claire Swinarski (March 2018) Doug Jones and Roy Moore, the Mueller Investigation, and a Kentucky Tragedy (December 2017) Las Vegas, Puerto Rico, and American Consumerism (October 2017) Harvey Weinstein, Masculinity & Mass Shootings, and Facebook, Trump, and the Attention Economy (October 2017) A Crazy Time for Speech and Political Correctness: Coats, Rogers, Comey, Kathy Griffin & Bill Maher (June 2017) Our Empathy Deficit (March 2017) Thanks to our sponsors: Mothers of Invention podcast and Bombas.
