My wife is a naturalized citizen from Cuba. Dictatorships are immediately recognized in our households and branded as horrific. Let's stop referring to the party controlled by Trump as conservative or as Republicans. That party is neither. The Party of Trump should be designated as such. It does not conform to conservative principles such as limited government or financial responsibility.
What are the ten things the next president and Congress should do to establish guardrails?? Here are a few suggestions:
1) somehow limit campaign spending…. End citizens united. Limits on campaign contributions.
2) limit presidential pardons. No one foresaw the president being able to pardon his private army. Do something to prevent it. 3) Is there a way for the DOJ to be independent? 4) limit Supreme Court terms to 6 or 10 years. 5) term limits for Congress. More years = more power. Power corrupts. 6) feel
free to join in here…. Can someone run on this and get elected? Can a majority of Americans agree on some very basic changes to get this clown car back on the tracks? I would hate to see this noble experiment crash and burn.
Thanks Adam! Glad to hear your exchange with Eli Honig! I've always trusted his legal opinions as I trust you! I think he'll be willing to defend you should trump ever be stupid enough to go after you legally!! So excited to see the Last Republican!! God bless you, Eli and the family!🙏🏻
Back to your video--- hearing the threats you and staff dealt with make it more "real" and frightening. And yet, here we are watching Trump continue attacks worldwide this time.
He looks like he is on the passenger side, with the shoulder belt going from right to left? Looks like he is holding up his phone in his left hand- I could be wrong though. :)
I believe that the Dems will be guided by our values when they get back in power. I totally believe that Trump should be impeached again and removed, and maybe Vance and Johnson there after.
Just watched it on Prime. We loved it, cried with you, shocked and appalled by what happened. I am a liberal Democrat that is open to discussion with intelligent and thoughtful people. Thank you Adam.
My brain has been “on demanding” this and looking for it underground for at least a year or more. It’s finally here! medias touch was the best collaboration to get this out.
Since few Americans will trust the midterms, we desperately need international election monitors. Here are several first rate groups:
—The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE): Through its Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR), the OSCE observes elections across its 57 participating states in Europe, Central Asia, and North America.
—The Carter Center: A non-governmental organization that has been a pioneer in election observation since 1989, deploying missions to assess electoral processes in over 40 countries.
—The Organization of American States (OAS): This regional body deploys election observation missions to member states to promote respect for democratic principles and human rights.
—The United Nations (UN): The UN Electoral Assistance Division provides technical assistance and observation services to member states, usually at the invitation of a national government and in the context of peace-building efforts.
You guys sounded upbeat. I am still catching up and deciding on what reports and from whom I will read, listen, watch or study. I have never been so glued to politics as I have been since Trump's first "reign" and even more so since Jan 6th which totally freaked me out. Bottom line, trump is a paranoid megalomanic, craven conmen, serial liar, cheat, vulgar and mafioso dictator who is has been a stain on our system and society for far too long. Jan 6 should have been the nail in his political career but somehow he snaked his way back with the help of his MAGA cult, republican cronies and sycophants and whatever corporate cabal and other wealthy interests groups or individuals who having him in office plays into their handbooks of utter dominance, control, power and the garnering of more wealth and a greater piece of the pie, maybe the whole fucking pie. Oh yeah the religious right who has been in the background all along but them exploded into the scene with trump endorsements and claims he was some kind of anointed "king-savior" who will usher in a Golden Age of America and give them free reign to make their brand of religion law and have us all bow to their dogmas, rules and will. They are the worst bunch of hypocrites as I have ever seen, full of false piety and fake religiosity. I don't see the teachings of Jesus in them but see feckless lot of shallow religious conmen and women out for a buck, dominance and control, not for any god but themselves. I listened to this as I was tidying up my office and felt very uneasy, I had been digesting one form of political media or another off and on all day in-between chores and I finally got a terrible sickening feeling in my gut over the whole fucking mess and wondering what is next for the country? I have been very outspoken for years over Trump and what I saw as a terrible movement away from democratic norms and the constitution and I have followed you and others over this whole time. I feel I really need a pep talk right about now. I feel drained more often than I care to admit. I have skipping work outs, sleeping far too much and moving slow. damn Adam, I can tell you work out! WOW! I admire that. I have been working out for a larger portion of my life. Though in 2020 I got hit with a chain of mishaps, injuries, infections and needed a number of operations. Odd for a man who was so healthy. I have only recently started to resume my work out routines but gradually and I keep missing them. That must end. Thank you for being who you are and I wish for you and your family many blessings and safety. With guys like you in the mix I have some hope for the future. Sorry for the long post.
Just bought the documentary on Apple and already watched it. It was fantastic! So sorry your family had to go through this but you are really an American hero. I may not agree with some of your conservative views but I respect your integrity and you are exactly the kind of leader this country needs.
Yes, I wish it had been titled “The Last Smart Republican!” Loved the film about to watch it again. Loved Eli Honig,too! He’s the real deal, very much like yourself- used to go to Temple with him, so glad you’re friends - similar energy levels lol.

Is that guy driving? Lol
He looks like he is on the passenger side, with the shoulder belt going from right to left? Looks like he is holding up his phone in his left hand- I could be wrong though. :)

Just rented The Last Republican on Amazon Prime. Will be watching soon👍🏻

It’s a flippin circus that never ends…they keep sending in the clowns.
Adam. I'm excited to see it. I wish you had
titled it, The Last Smart Republican.

Thank you. I'd like to suggest that everyone read this article about how our elections will be subverted: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2025/12/2026-midterms-trump-threat/684615/?gift=hVZeG3M9DnxL4CekrWGK3w_B3TIMsLlwYPXwh8OtqrQ&utm_source=copy-link&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share
