On this episode with Neal and Julie, they dive into the monumental news that Donald Trump has become the 47th President of the United States. Neal shares how surreal it felt watching the results roll in, surrounded by like-minded individuals as Trump secured victory. The election night was filled with moments of gratitude and intense emotion, and Neal admits he was moved by the experience.

They discuss the significance of Trump’s coalition, including support from figures like Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr., and Vivek Ramaswamy, which reflects a unique alliance across the political spectrum. Neal and Julie also touch on the success of various ballot initiatives, notably those enforcing citizenship requirements for voting. Arizona’s unique choices regarding election rules and the movement in Alaska to repeal ranked-choice voting also feature in their discussion.

The two express cautious optimism about what lies ahead, with Julie noting that the defeat of ranked-choice voting prevents lawmakers from spending time undoing it later. Both hosts appreciate their listeners’ role in getting the word out on issues like Proposition One, and they celebrate the integrity shown by voters in making informed decisions. Reflecting on a range of perspectives, they consider the reshaping of the political landscape and the future for both parties as Trump prepares to take office.
