Joey Hudson fills in for Mike as the midterms approach and President Trump ramps up his campaign push across the country. Joey digs into Trump’s proposed payments to seniors and other Americans, asking whether they’re needed relief or an election-year spending spree that adds to the nation’s massive debt. He also examines Trump’s escalating pressure on Iran over its nuclear ambitions and his very public battle with Senator Tom Cotton over daylight saving time—including giving out Cotton’s phone number.
