Description
On today’s episode of The MeidasTouch Podcast, we have a very special guest, David Jolly. David Jolly served in the U.S. House of Representatives for Florida's 13th congressional district from 2014 to 2017. A prominent critic of former president Donald Trump, Jolly officially left the Republican party in 2018. During the interview, we discuss a variety of topics including the Republican Party's full-on embrace of QAnon ideology, the latest inflation numbers and what Biden should do about it and how Ron Desantis used Trump like a pawn to gain power & notoriety. During the episode, the brothers also take a moment to reflect on Veterans Day and provide a brief personal anecdote of how their grandparents fought bravely to preserve our democratic institutions. The episode is rounded out with updates on the bizarre behavior witnessed during the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, Fox “News” rooting for fascism and much more.
