Episode 071: Fizzle NOT Sizzle

January 18th, 2020  |  50 mins

2020 election, democrat candidates presidential debate, fizzle not sizzle, hillary clinton, impeachment trial 2020, indiana, local politics, perception is reality w/kristopher h. bilbrey, trump

Kristopher H. Bilbrey discusses the boring Democratic Candidates' Presidential Debate from 01.14.20. It had: no excitement, nothing to get folks fired up and/or nothing that makes people want to back any of the 243 Democrat Candidates battling each other to see who will get a chance to LOSE to President Trump in November of 2020!

KRISTOPHER THEN MAKES A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - DURING THIS EPISODE!

The Impeachment Trial will be starting in the Senate on 01.21.20! We talk about that, while discussing Chief Justice John Roberts & the Senators being sworn in on 01.16.20. We then name the 7 House of Representatives Impeachment Managers!

The 2nd portion of the episode was set aside for discussion of local politics... but a decision to leave a “LIVE-to-TAPE” live recorded segment in, rather than editing it out cuts into the local coverage a bit (take a listen and see what went on)! The episode does end on local coverage!

In this episode, host Kristopher H. Bilbrey breaks down the "US vs THEM" or the "Opponent vs Enemy" type of mind set! THIS... is what we look at as the main casue of the nasty political climate that has been away of life in American Politics at the National, State and even at the Local levels since the late 1990's or early 2000's! But what is the difference between an "OPPONENT" and an "ENEMY"? Listen in as Kristopher goes over the differences and discusses how this is effecting politics in America... no matter if it is from the Bottom - Up... or the Top - Down!

It is TRULY time to BETTER Government Through Citizen Involvement!
