The Mug Shot, Tucker’s Click Bait & The First Debate
25 August - 34 mins explicitWhether you like it or not, Donald Trump became the first US President with a mugshot. For supporters this will change nothing other than save them time photoshopping the fake versions they emblazoned on coffee cups, shirts and hats. For his opponents it is sweet vindication. Marion McKeone looks back on this week’s first GOP primary debate. With the troublesome child out of the room, she surveys the highlights and low lights from the night of many contradictions. Later in the show, on Patreon, she examines the Tucker Carlson interview in all its monotonous glory and her own near death experience while meeting the "real" Americans in Florida.
