American Elections: Wicked Game
History
*** All 59 episodes are available ad-free on IntoHistory.com
For Americans who lived through the 2020 presidential election, most thought it was the worst they’d ever seen. With disputed results, the violence of January 6th, and the continued drumbeat of 'fake news' and 'rigged elections,' we witnessed a presidential contest unlike any seen before.
But now we face another. On Tuesday, November 7th, 2023, Americans will have just fifty-two weeks to prepare for what promises to be the next worst election in history.
That’s why I’m releasing this podcast.
We’ve pulled all the old episodes down and beginning November 7th, will be re-publishing them every week. Why? For the same reason we did it the first time four years ago: to prove that presidential politics has always been abysmal, has never matched this nation’s promise, and that once you understand that, today’s chaos is easier to take.
Please listen to this special announcement to learn more about the future of this podcast - and how you can keep listening, right now.
