If Democrats Win The Midterms, How Bold Can They Be?

Description

The midterms are upon us and we’ll check in on a few races, including a moderate Democrat in Washington state who’s trying to hang onto her seat. If she wins – and her party does, too – what role will she and other moderates play with Democrats emboldened and ready to fight? Also, Democrats have blasted Team Trump for trying to cast doubt on our election system. But in Alaska’s Senate race, the Democratic campaign is accused of recruiting another Dan Sullivan to be on the ballot so it confuses voters trying to vote for incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan. Plus, Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu seem politically weakened at the moment. If their parties lose seats in their respective elections, we talk about how that might change their approach to foreign policy in Iran and elsewhere.  Producer: Leo Duran Host: David Greene  Guests:  Jonah Goldberg, co-founder and editor-in-chief at The Dispatch - @JonahDispatch Nomiki Konst, political commentator, progressive strategist, and former surrogate for Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign - @NomikiKonst
