In our latest US Week in Review, I joined talkRADIO’s Nick DuBois on Saturday to talk about the state of the US elections with 100 days to go.

Campaigning on the economy is out for November because it’s taken such a hit. Trying to show Trump’s leadership on Coronavirus, while excluding his medical experts, is failing because of more than 145,000 deaths and record-setting daily increases in cases.
