Episode 60: Normalizing the Trump Administration Isn’t Cute

Devon and Sarah discuss big data’s role in the Russian interference in the 2016 election, and how that is possibly starting to connect back to the Trump campaign. They also talk about the cult of normalization and why Sean Spicer at the Emmys is more than just not funny – it’s dangerous. They also bestow the Dickwad of the Week to King Dickwad himself. It’s been that kind of week.

They also discuss healthcare (duh), Trump’s attempt to ban transgender service members from the military, Trump’s ridiculous speech in front of the Boy Scouts of America, and why McCain is certainly not a maverick. (Though we here at Hellbent HQ do wish him well and hope his treatments are successful.)
