Michael Cohen will spend 3 years in jail and have to pay a bevy of fines. It all stems from the crimes he committed UNDER the direction of Donald Trump. It feels like it's just a matter of time before all of these investigations catch up with Trump. We talk to Niels Lesnewski from Roll Call, Kevin Robillard from HuffPost and Rep Jackie Speier (D-CA).
Donald Trump canceled an important trip in France to honor soldiers because of a little rain. Is he really the tough guy that he claims to be? He's never visited any active combat zone to honor troops, he skipped a memorial because of rain.... Is it possible that Donald Trump hates the military?PLUS - The election is still going on!

Scripture: Job 38:1-7, 34-38Speakers: Brett Baker, Kevin Robillard, Karen Baldasare, Jane ListonEach of our journeys are different.

A bombshell NYT story details how Donald Trump and his family have scammed their way into wealth. Trump's father gifted him untold amounts of money to propel him to his wealth. The NYT lays it all out. Plus, Donald Trump went to Mississippi to hold another one of his silly rallies. He mocked and made fun of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford in front of a hooting Republican audience. Will Republicans distance themselves from his toxic comments? Don't count on it. We talk to Asawin Suebsang from the Daily Beast, Kevin Robillard from HuffPost and Ben Schreckinger from Politico.
Ron DeSantis is the Republican candidate for Governor in the state of Florida. He's running against Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum. On Wednesday, DeSantis says Florida doesn't want to "monkey it up" by electing Gillum. It's an obvious slur that is straight from the Trump playbook. We talk about what impact that could have on the race and how Gillum's politics will play in Florida. White House Counsel Don McGahn got the boot. Trump announced that McGahn is departing the White House. The only problem is.... Trump didn't tell McGahn before he tweeted about it. Sloppy in all aspects.Plus, Trump doubles down on how well he's done with Puerto Rico. This is despite the updated death count, which is MUCH higher than originally reported. We talk to The Hill's Cate Martel, ThinkProgress's Addy Baird and HuffPost's Kevin Robillard!
Republicans should be scared out of their minds. The race is still too close to call in Ohio's 12th District. While the GOP MIGHT hold on to that seat, every Republican around the country should be terrified. This should have been a layup for the GOP and they've spent countless hours and resources just to hold on to the seat. What does that mean for other Republicans? It's not good news. We talk to Nahal Toosi from Politico, Eugene Scott from Washington Post and Kevin Robillard from HuffPost.

Matthias and Jordan are back this week to chat with Ryan Moy (@alwaysonoffense) about the future of the GOP and whether or not it can find "basic values as a party" and rebuild after the election. Terrible Opinions Ryan is apparently very, very particular when it comes to his Halloween candy. Jordan is upset that Jonah Peretti's bizarre tweet about Ivanka Trump is only one more example of the media industry tossing ethics out the window to get attention. Matthias thinks "journalists" like Kevin Robillard of Politico who take decent people out of context and sic Twitter trolls on them should be (metaphorically) burned at the stake. Consultants! Reince! Dumpster fire! Analysis, predictions, fears and hopes blend in our take on what the post-election conservative landscape will look like. Matthias really wants to know who exactly will be responsible for steering the GOP after Nov. 8. Is it enough for the GOP to replace Reince? Are those conversations already happening and is a plan for the party's future after Donald Trump in the works? Ryan discusses the possibility that Carly Fiorina will be tapped as the new GOP chair and details what she would bring to the table, while Jordan speculates on what the most powerful combination would be for 2020. We debate whether or not the alt-right will continue to infect the conservative movement after the election. Predictions Matthias depresses everyone with the prediction that the media will continue to give the alt-right oxygen by covering white supremacist events and otherwise bringing attention to their cause. Jordan points out that Trump's reaction if he loses the election could determine whether or not the media continues to make a profit from that kind of coverage (if he goes on that long vacation as promised and disappears from public view, not so much). She predicts that most of the GOP will wake up after the election and attempt to shock everyone with how much Trump never happened. Ryan predicts that Trump TV will launch and will be a fairly successful enterprise.
