In November 2020 she left the Republican Party after Donald Trump refused to concede the election to Joe Biden. At the start of this terrific conversation Tara pleads, "Please Dems don't blow it!". We discuss Donald Trump's epic chaos and failures, whether the MAGA fever's starting to break, the momentum Democrats have heading towards November, and the critical importance of the midterms. But first, The Back Room crew discusses the interest rate hike, Republican Rep. Maria Salazar's new anti-Trump immigration ad, the new NY Times poll, and the GOP's panic and desperation over the poll's devastating numbers. Got somethin' to say?!
