Imagine going on a show insisting you be called “doctor” then calling President Trump “Trump.”

[inarichards]

For the lady wanting to learn more about government, I suggest watching committee hearings and speeches on the house senate floors . Also, sign up for newsletter or emails from her elected officials . She can also get info locally from her council, governor, or mayor.

[ProfessorBaugus]

How about a "What I am Reading" each week from all three of you

[troygoeckerman]

I do have SiriusXM for three years now and listen to your 8am Smerconish conversation. Excellent content!

[jayb]

And I thought todays was the smartest Poli-Talk I’ve ever heard.

[DaveFromVh]

I can’t wait to watch “Fred” tonight hosted by the one and only Mark Halperin

[postpaal]

Mark needs to watch more warroom..to quote Bannon «even if we or a senator dont like it…Trump took a bullet to the head…Trump gets to choose his own cabinet!».

[jayb]

I love the convo around bare-knuckle Politics. good to see the Republican learning the game.

[jchoosier]

Best book I’ve read lately explaining inside baseball of Congress is If One Falls Down by Matthew Russell, was really informative and down to earth, explains how things work well

[patricia]

Sean Thank you for showing us your Beautiful Christmas tree!! Lovely!! ❤🎄👍👍
PS I think Sean decorated the tree!! No lazy bones there. 😁

[BumpyHumpyDumpy]

That last person was brutal. Jesus Christ, I can’t believe what some people bring to the show but it shows how unscripted the show is.

[tatyanakhavinson]

Please let people speak without interrupting. That’s rude!

[danconnolly]

In regards to Halpren's sources on Laura Trump. Are these the same sources who said Pete wouldn't make it past last weekend?

[HighPriestess-xe]

Laura was brilliant! Love Bari's (sp) question from Washington state. Dr. John...fascinating, disagree with his comment re: Hispanics!!!! Great discussion from 2Way participants.

[CGC]

At some point, we have to question if the New York Times is worth paying attention to at all. 26:08

[chuckfinley]

Good thing Sean doesn’t have whiskey in his mug, he answers a question or makes a comment & takes a sip.

[markwiegard]

Lincoln, Kennedy, Reagan are features of their time. To say, those three presidents probably wouldn’t make it in today’s political environment. DJT is the president of our political environment.

The idea then former presidents would be politically prosecuted and the media was one sided wouldn’t be tolerated.

[dm]

I suggest she start with the fundamentals and first principles. Read Declaration of Ind. Read the constitution. Read The Federalist papers. The last thing i would suggest is to focus purely on current events/personalities.

[sethbecker]

Mark looks like he is exploring the deep ocean in a suit.

[Kevin-ifvp]

Dan knows maga better than mark and 2/3 of the dc GOP
