The Lean to the Left Podcast

President Obama says the election results must be clear because Trump refuses to say he will accept the results, and so much is at stake. Just little things. Like health care coverage.

While voters age 65 and older helped propel Donald Trump to the presidency in 2016, they now are abandoning him in droves. Could the reason be that his pandemic is killing them?

In states across the nation where early voting is taking place, voters are lining up…sometimes waiting for hours…for a chance to cast their ballots. The experts say Joe Biden and the Democrats have a huge lead among these early voters, many of whom are Black and are ready to provide Trump with a big time payback. That’s the subject of tonight’s podcast. Take a listen to Payback on Election Day fro...

Well, they just won’t stop with the dirty tricks, Trump and his buddy, Rudy Giuliani. They keep trying to tarnish Joe Biden in a desperate attempt to rescue the Orange One from defeat. But here’s the question. Was Rudy suckered by the Russians. This one was written by Chris Waldron on Not Fake News.biz. I’ll narrate. Take a listen.

So the other night at a rally in Georgia, packed with red MAGA hatted supporters, President Trump joked that if he loses to Joe Biden he might have to leave the country.

Everybody knows that a fly landed on Vice President Mike Pence’s head at the VP presidential debate and pretty much became the star of the show. But what if that fly had actually taken over the moderator’s microphone and asked the questions of Pence and Democratic Senator Kamala Harris? Well, we imagined that on Not Fake News. Jackie plays the part of the fly. I’m Pence and Harris. Take a listen....

Stacy Fitzgerald, of Not Fake News, believes it’s high time that America elects a female president, and that electing Joe Biden and Kamala Harris is a great beginning. Many countries have had great female leaders, and yet the U.S. continues the sexist concept that it takes a man to be president. Really? Check out Stacy’s commentary from Not Fake News.

Tonight, Donald Trump stepped off the presidential helicopter, Marine 1, after having been flown from Walter Reed Medical Center back to the White House, walked up a set of stairs and into the Blue Room of the White House, the open doors flanked with American flags. The first thing he did was remove his mask. He was seen posing before a video camera, as loyal aides apparently shot a video, presuma...

Tragically, Donald Trump and the first lady have contracted Covid-19, and the president has been taken to Walter Reed National Medical Center for treatment. He’ll be in quarantine for 10 days. A lot of commentators from the left are secretly – or not so secretly – rejoicing. Not so, here. I’m hoping he gets better because we certainly don’t need any more upheaval before the election. However, he m...

Anybody who watched that horrendous performance by Donald Trump in the presidential debate last night must have been horrified at the brazen bullying that he displayed, targeting both Joe Biden and the moderator, Chris Wallace. Frankly, I was so saddened by it all that I was unable to write, but thankfully, Susan Hutchinson came through with her blog on Not Fake News.biz. So take a listen to Susan...

So we learned today from the New York Times, which published a brilliant investigative report about Donald Trump’s taxes, that the president paid $750 in personal federal income taxes in both 2016 and 2017, and zero taxes in the decade before. I just read a tweet from a student who said she paid more than that working 39 hours a week at Starbucks. Come on, man…is that right? Take a listen to my co...

I’ve got another twin-bill, double header, two-for…whatever you want to call it…today. First will be my commentary from Not Fake News.biz talking about how Trump is trying to stack the Supreme Court as backup insurance in case Joe Biden kicks him to the curb…and the implications of that. Then, I’ll bring you commentary written by Chris Waldron in Not Fake News in which Chris suggests that Trump’s...

A Trump official says a report by the Government Accountability Office about the administration’s Covid 19 response was the work of a “useful idiot.” Well, we think that the administration’s response actually was the work of a “useless idiot.”And while we’re talking about idiots, Donald Trump gives himself an A+ on how he’s handled the pandemic. Really? With 200,000 deaths and counting, he did a g...

It's becoming increasingly clear that Donald Trump is doing everything possible to rig the presidential election, and the opportunity to pack the Supreme Court with a new conservative justice could be his kill shot.

The death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg threatens to turn the presidential election upside down and Donald Trump and his Republican henchmen appear determined to make certain that happens.

Donald Trump apparently advocates a "herd immunity" strategy that would result in the coronavirus pandemic virtually disappearing, falsely predicting that an approved vaccine will be available sometime in October while blaming Democratic states for the rising death count.

Increasing income inequality is costing most Americans thousands of dollars every year in their paychecks and has made the coronavirus more deadly and its economic consequences more severe than in any other advanced nation in the world. That is the conclusion of Nick Hanauer and David M. Rolf who reported in TIME about new analysis from the RAND Corporation, which estimates that "upward redistribu...

Donald Trump says he told us to "stay calm" about the coronavirus to avoid panic. But he tries to scare us every day into voting for him. He does it over and over again, trying to use his “Law and Order” theme to prove he’ll keep us nice and safe from all those horrible acts by those who actually want to be treated fairly under the law in order for them to be safe. That’s the topic of today’s podc...
