A special edition from Iowa, where Democrats are struggling with a number of unpalatable options in their presidential caucuses. The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway got her first chance to observe the 2020 version of Joe Biden in action, and her reaction is…not entirely optimistic for the former vice president’s chances. Meanwhile, President Trump is making an all-out effort in Iowa not to win the caucuses — he’s guaranteed to do that — but to put a key swing state in the Trump column for the general election before Democrats even choose a candidate.

    Mollie’s the best. Terrible theme music though.

    Agree w/ @thecloakedgaijin. Its the no chit-chat podcast so you don’t need theme music as far as I’m concerned.

    Great discussion. Now you have to have the ‘after’ Iowa podcast to discuss it. Probably be able to do that in a week or two once all the Democrat votes are counted. Reasons why its best to discuss what has happened (facts) rather than guessing what will happen. More Mollie please.

    From a purely euphonic perspective it’s good to hear Max Baucus getting Raucous in the Caucus.

    Isn’t Mollie Hemingway with The Bulwark now? That should be included with her “Credits.”

    “Mollie Hemingway with The Bulwark”? That’s like saying Samson was “with” the Temple of Dagon.

    I hope this is a joke.
