Cenk hosts TYT. Alabama has decided to ban Sharia Law in the state, as if this means anything. Talk about the sheer number of Republican seats from the midterms and their agenda to immediately destroy any opportunities for the lower and middle classes in order to help the rich even more. Cenk points out that the money spent by Conservatives is the reason Americans voted for Republicans despite their blatant disdain for the very people that supported them. President Obama spoke to McConnell after the election about the Conservative ideas that he is ready to work with the GOP on, which would destroy Americans’ lives even more. This agenda was being blocked by Reid and Senate Democrats, but now Obama can do the horrible things he agrees with the GOP on. Cenk is frustrated by the media ignores how Republicans run on populous agendas, but immediately talk about working for corporations when elected. No one wonders who ran on cutting rich, and corporate taxes, and lifting all regulations. Cenk talks about the crazy things some newly elected Republicans have said, like Joni Ernst on Agenda 21, Tom Cotton on ISIS crossing the Mexican border, and Jody Hice claiming that Muslims don’t deserve American rights. The question of whether or not Conservatives will compromise and work with Obama is an obvious no. Videos of Conservatives rejecting the idea of an Obama mandate after he won reelection. Videos of Obama surrogates rejecting a mandate, as well as Obama himself. In a stark contrast, videos of Conservatives claiming a GOP mandate that tells them to not work with Obama at all costs. Now that Democrats got their asses handed to them after running away from Obama and the Democratic base, the Executive Director of the NRSC talked about how they were baffled by their plan to abandon Obama and his accomplishments. The Communications Director for the NRSC outlined the accomplishments Democrats had, that they never even mentioned during the campaign. Despite these revelations, Hillary Clinton allies have a plan to distance her from Obama for 2016. Twitter Storm with Kim Horcher. Show notes by Jayar Jackson
