S15 EP153: Hour 2 - Lindsay Clancy, Postpartum Depression, Trump's Midterm Plea, and Hassan Piker's Michigan Problem
Summary
Erick Erickson discusses CNN’s recent editorial blunders, including misspelling his name and using a Dolly Parton impersonator’s photo. He analyzes midterm election dynamics, noting Republican confidence in Iowa and Michigan despite concerns in Texas and Georgia, while criticizing Democrats for associating with controversial figures like Hasan Piker. The episode concludes with a debate on the Lindsay Clancy case, where Erickson and callers argue that postpartum depression may mitigate punishment but does not absolve her of responsibility for killing her children.
