Plus, longtime political reporter Dan Balz from the Washington Post joins for a wide ranging political discussion! Will these convictions help or hurt Trump? We also discuss the state of the Presidential race and what President Biden's strengths and weaknesses are as election season ramps up.  Read Harry's coverage of the Trump trial for the LA Times: <a href="https://www.latimes.com/people/harry-litman" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.latimes.com/people/harry-litman</a> Read Dan Balz' latest in the Washington Post: <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/people/dan-balz/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.washingtonpost.com/people/dan-balz/</a>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.

A five-time Emmy winning SNL comedy writer/producer, joins a four-time #1 NYT bestselling author, a three-time highest-rated national progressive radio host, a two-time Grammy winning artist, and a former US Senator. So, it gets a little crowded in the booth when Al talks public policy and sometimes political comedy with notable guests. Think “The Daily” without the resources of the NYTimes.
