The Forces & the Fracas

Subscribe to The Ricochet PodcastSubscribe

This week we cover a handful of great tug-of-war games, past, present, and future. Charles McElwee, founding editor of RealClearPennsylvania, returns to the podcast to give an election season tour of the swingy Keystone State. Next, Tevi Troy joins for a discussion about the epic clashes between America's masters of the universe and their presidents. (Be sure to get a copy of his new book, The Power and the Money.)

Steve, Charlie and James also chatter about Florida's latest roaringly windy Wednesday, and end on the neutral note of AI symphonies.

- Sound bites from this week's open: DeSantis remarks about climate change after Hurricane Milton; Biden's response about FEMA failures after Hurricane Helene

    Is that supposed to be Trump playing tug-of-war with Harris? He's going to start selling a diet book?

    The way things are going, it might be Scranton Joe. He's been undermining her quite a bit lately.

    FJB created "borking SC nominees". He plays dirty and does will not forget getting kicked out by Obama/Harris/Pelosi. He is not bright, but he is cunning.
