Politics Ain’t Beanbag
May 5, 2016
Lou Michels joins The Chief on the show to discuss the latest election news now that Trump is the sole GOP candidate. The Chief wonders how Trump’s harsh New York-ness hasn’t turned the country off from his charms. In the first hour Lou and the Chief rekindle their debate over Uber and discuss the national deficit as well as the average American family’s debt. Later they discuss how the US broke the Russian economy and how we’re not in a war right now but one seems inevitable within the next ten years. In between talking about politics and markets, The Chief and Lou find time to discuss gym etiquette and women’s hairstyle fads.
