Shownotes Transcript

NBC political director Chuck Todd joins with his reaction to Tuesday’s election.

Then, we open up the phone lines to ask how Democrats can move forward after this national shift to the right and ask Trump voters why the Dems just weren't connecting with them.

Former secretary of public safety Andrea Cabral talks about the implications of a GOP-controlled Senate (and possibly House) under a second Trump term. She also discusses whether Biden should pardon Trump and the future of Jack Smith’s investigation into 2020 election subversion. 

Former secretary of education Paul Reville reacts to Ballot Question 2, which scrapped the MCAS graduation requirement. Reville had a key role in the original implementation of MCAS, nearly 20 years ago. 

We then take your mind off politics by talking about chickens for five minutes. 

Boston Globe business columnist Shirley Leung discusses her latest stories on women voter turnout and her interview with Katherine Clark. 

It's "Am I the A-hole" day. We ask about a dad who "pranked" his kids by covering their car with Trump bumper stickers.
