In this lively pre-inauguration episode, hosts Dave Spencer and Carrie Sheffield debate the prospects of Trump's upcoming second term. They explore how Trump has changed since 2017, assess his first-term legislative accomplishments, and discuss key challenges ahead, including immigration policy, Ukraine relations, and economic concerns. The hosts offer contrasting perspectives on Trump's evolution as a leader, with Sheffield arguing he's more focused and disciplined, while Spencer expresses skepticism about fundamental changes in Trump's governing style. The episode concludes with Spencer's pointed criticism of outgoing President Biden's decision to run for reelection. Throughout their spirited exchange, the hosts provide insight into the political dynamics shaping America's transition of power in 2025.
