• Analyzing America's New Political Landscape
    Nov 13 2024

    In this insightful episode of Divided We Fail, we unpack the 2024 election results with special guest Jeff Kronk Jr., host of Bearded Chats on Facebook. Beyond a simple reaction, we’re diving into the broader implications of this election—how it’s shifting America’s political identity and what these changes mean for both major parties moving forward.

    We explore questions like: What are the key challenges each party faces as they respond to evolving voter priorities? How will each navigate the widening divides within their own bases? And, perhaps most importantly, what strategies will be necessary to stay relevant in the eyes of an increasingly diverse electorate? From the surprising results in battleground states to voter sentiment across the spectrum, we’re here to break down what’s next for each side of the aisle.

    Tune in as we analyze the election night twists, discuss what’s on the horizon for the political landscape, and consider the actions both parties will need to take to engage the hearts and minds of the American people.
