Colorado Republicans: Also Terrible at Fundraising (feat. Christy Powell)

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, the money is pouring into primary elections in Colorado, but, really just for one party, can you guess which one? Best friend of the pod Christy Powell is back to break down the third quarter fundraising results in Colorado. Also, the shutdown shitshow continues into its sixth week, and most Americans aren’t stupid, so they know who’s to blame -- namely, the party who currently controls the House, the Senate, and the White House. And finally, the most potent weapon against the excesses of the Trump administration isn’t Congress, and it’s isn’t even states or governors; it turns out that the courts are the last thing standing between the American People and full blown stupid techno-fascism.
