Tom Nichols is a professor of national security affairs at the United States Naval War College and also teaches at the Harvard Extension School. He is the author of seven books including "No Use: Nuclear Weapons and U.S. National Security" and “The Death of Expertise: The Campaign Against Established Knowledge and Why It Matters.” He is also a political columnist for USA Today.
Tom Nichols shares what it was like to be targeted by President Donald Trump who slurred him and other “Never Trumper” patriots as “human scum”. Nichols warns that Donald Trump is a mafia-like boss and authoritarian who actually means everything that he says including his threats of violence against his enemies.
Tom Nichols also explains why the Ukraine scandal is such a powerful example of Trump’s disrespect for the rule of law and democracy and another example of why he should be impeached. Nichols also offers some advice for the Democrats regarding how they are making decisions which will lead to their defeat by Donald Trump and his cabal in 2020.
Chauncey DeVega warns that public opinion and other data -- and of course, the Electoral College and Russian interference -- show that Trump will steal another term in office. Chauncey also explains how Trump’s Ukraine scandal and his Republican mouthpiece propagandists are like a political version of the TV shows Cheaters and Maury.
