Description
Less than a week until the midterms, and Republicans are busy defending the Cheesecake Factory. Janesh and Markos unpack explosive allegations about Jared Kushner's secretive financial dealings with Gulf states, wonder why the media isn't treating his phone like Hunter Biden's laptop, and revisit Barack Obama's brutal comparison of Trump's White House to a Cheesecake Factory run by Saddam Hussein. Plus, Trump brags about oil profits while Americans struggle with prices, Democrats dream of a blue tsunami, and Markos makes a bold prediction about what a Republican wipeout could mean for Trump's future. The election is almost here, and somehow the closing argument involves cheesecake.
