On this week's episode, we're sharing a director's cut of a recent focus group, featuring swing state suburban women. These voters from Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Georgia backed Trump in 2016, but flipped in 2020. Hear what they have to say about the big races in their states, their desire for things to be "normal" again, and how the end of Roe is influencing their vote this November.

Make Politics Boring Again, Please
Hearing the un curated raw content was way better than the normal show. Perhaps more of this going forward followed with some analysis vs the here’s my point, here are the selected sound bights to prove my point format. I don’t mind the opinion, I just want the option to form my own from the raw content.
The success of the “business man” lie was astounding with this group!
Hillary was mean and so they couldn’t vote for her. I’ve got news for these women, any woman seeking a powerful position, at least in this country, will be painted in a “mean” or some other derogatory light. Just ask Amy. Case in point, many state governors instituted covid lockdowns, why is Gretchen uniquely singled out for being onerous, oppressive and overstepping the bounds of HER authority. Hmmmm, let me ponder this question a bit whilst I peruse my playboy magazine collection. Oh, and also Stockholm syndrome is a thing.
I loved hearing the hand to hand combat in the room. The Georgia irs discussion alone was worth the time of listening to the whole pod.
Gee , the “you can vote for a third party” voice was insistent and I think ignorant of the fact she should be advocating for rank choice voting and that her votes in this system are wholly meaningless except for helping the repugnantcons with minority rule.
Hallelujah for the woman who pointed out Mick Jagger & Joe Biden are the same age. Ageism is the last permissable area of discrimination. I was bouyed by how even self-described 'pro-life' women didn't support the idea of government telling women what they can and can't do with their own bodies, especially from the "My body, my choice"(insert multiple eye roll emojis) anti-vax crowd. I don't think polls are reflecting how America women feel about rights we've had for 50 years being taken away.
