The second episode of Restless Natives looks at town hall meetings, the ongoing Riggs-Griffin race, and the impact of the economy on elections. It’s a fun episode.

I think it is bad reasoning to say (of Trump) that he told us he was going to do this and so we shouldn’t be surprised. He lies so much that there can be no reasonable expectation that what he says is true.
Thanks! Walmart just closed its Charlotte office. Target is cutting staff hours (including my son's) already. So actually, employees of these global retailers are already absorbing the impact, before the truckers in LA next month. These are local dots the Dems (all non-Trumpers) could already be highlighting. Also, airlines' forward bookings are a behavioral indicator of people's faith in the economy, and they are off a cliff, according to OAG (and American's CEO yesterday), leading to reductions in flight schedules ergo staffing. American's Charlotte hub is already affected, and note that AVELO is ending many flights into Concord-Padgett Airport. It is already local, and ready for communications.
Better and better, Thomas :-)
Looking forward to the next session.
