Ep. 23 | After Trump’s Win, the Media and Democrats Have a Choice: Keep Melting Down or Wake Up
Description
In this episode of Campaign Games, we’re tackling the election fallout, breaking down the failures of the Harris campaign, and calling out the media’s epic meltdown. We dig into the media's go-to excuses for the Democrats' loss—like cries of racism and misogyny—and call out the absurdity of their double standards and disingenuousness. From Harris’s limp concession speech to the “blame the right-wing ecosystem” narrative that’s now running wild on CNN, we’ve got all the unfiltered analysis.
We’re also exploring the big shift to the right across the U.S., what it means for the future, and reactions from Democrat figureheads like Gavin Newsom and Kathy Hochul, who are already bracing themselves for a Trump presidency.This episode has everything you love about Campaign Games: humor, brutal honesty, and zero patience for the spin. Grab a coffee (or something stronger) and join us—there’s a lot to unpack!
