We’re ready to close the books on another week. And we should probably burn the book when we’re done, too. These weeks suck!
Luckily, there’s still time to make fun of Donald Trump, before he’s able to throw us all in the dungeons. So let’s make a point of doing that, shall we?
Listen LIVE right here at 9:00 AM ET!
Oh, right! It’s probably time to craft a new shtick for this middle part, here. This is the bit where I remind you that we need your help in order to make a living at this. If the show is something you enjoy, or just want people to think it is, why not pitch in and keep alive our hopes of one day fully justifying to our families the time we spend on it?* You can make a one-time donation, or subscribe via PayPal or Patreon to provide ongoing, monthly support!

David Waldman dives for cover as Greg Dworkin and Armando climb into the KITM ring yet again! Today the two go toe to toe over polling. Yes, Hillary Clinton holds her usual stable lead going into the debates, Trump holds his usual second place, but it’s the details (and demographics, and the organization of the campaign) that count. For instance: NC's absentee mail-in ballots trends. So, pay attention to the details, and uhm, the big picture, or a few big pictures. Donald Trump comes up with a big-government unconstitutional gun confiscation scheme. The Media just doesn’t know how to handle Trump, although they should have had plenty of practice. A University of Tennessee professor urged motorists to run over demonstrators blocking traffic in Charlotte, N.C. The WNBA Indiana Fever team kneels in protest and solidarity. A Trump campaign official never ran into problems with racism before Obama. Meet the Neo-Nazis, Klansmen, and other extremists endorsing Donald Trump. Meet a bunch of them in North Carolina! Yes, the Trump Foundation is Donald’s wallet. Trump's campaign paid his businesses $8.2 million. At least the Enterprise car rental company leaves ALEC after public outcry. David gives his thoughts on the arms sale to Saudish Arabia, and Rand Paul's attempt to block it. Saudis are both the arsonists and the firefighters. Campus carry inspires a lot of University doubletalk. And — Correspondent Rosalyn MacGregor (Yes, you too can be a KITM correspondent — contact David for details!) calls in with news: Republicans are in favor of local control, except when they're not. After court threat, state of Michigan removed Flint's power to sue.
