Description

It's our last episode of the year. Before we head into 2024, Henry airs his grievances with the wannabe heavyweights of this cycle. From Joe Biden’s dismal performance, Ron DeSantis' inept campaign, the perpetually grumpy Freedom Caucus that can’t execute on squat, and ambitious progressive Democrats who lack the chutzpah to challenge their party’s unpopular leader: Mr. Olsen's got a lot of problems with these people!He also chats with Monmouth University Polling Institute's Patrick Murray about the data on the electorate’s dissatisfaction and on parsing through a respondent’s tribal filter. And he welcomes the University of New Hampshire's Dante Scala back to cover the race between Donald Trump and Nikki Haley, along with what the other candidates’ presence on the ballot could mean for the Granite State primary.Merry Christmas, all. See you again in the election year!
