Breakfast In America

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

Let's get right to the point: we've got Larry Kudlow (shameless plug: listen to Kudlow and Pawlenty's Money & Politics podcast) who may or may not be the next Senator from Connecticut to school on why Donald Trump ought to be taken seriously and other matters both political and economic, followed by the great Michael Barone, who joins us from the side of the road in South Carolina. He breaks down the primary scene and gives us a look ahead as well. Finally, Bernie and Al break bread -- as one wag on Twitter put it, "guy who wants to raise taxes has breakfast with guy who doesn't pay them."

    It was refreshing to hear Larry Kudlow re his positive discussion about Trump. Fiorina was my preference originally but find myself increasingly leaning toward Trump. The influential podcasters and editors on here seem to all be most negative about Trump. In fact, I suspect a "group think," which disparages anyone who takes Trump seriously. It's tough to pay for a service where your opinions are not respected. I'm not 100% sold on Trump, but I do like to hear from people who have positive things to say. Thank you for Larry Kudlow.

    Stay vocal. I have the same issues and I hope the owners of Ricochet realize their membership goals can be met with an outreach to Trumps supporters.
