Trump may have authoritarian aspirations, but he's very bad at governing and managing—four weeks into the transition, he's had two major Ls. Meanwhile, Democrats have to rebuild their connection to voters with local party clubs, and not wait until an election year. Plus, a reverse cancel culture is silencing any conversation about the role that gender and race played in Kamala's loss. And finding solace in the words of Frederick Douglass. Jamelle Bouie joins Tim Miller. show notes: Jamelle's column about one of Frederick Douglass's final speeches Tim's playlist

Hallo und willkommen zu The Bullard Podcast. Ich bin euer Host Tim Miller. Wir sind am Montagabend, spätabend. Ich habe einen Feierabend in Iowa zu gehen. Am Freitag viel Liebe zu meinem Freund Grant. Also, wenn Donald Trump den Judge Box of Wine anwenden will, um den Deputy Attorney General oder so etwas am Freitagabend zu sein, dann wirst du wissen, warum wir es nicht beschlossen haben.
Ich bin heute hier, der erste Gast, sehr begeistert, Jamel Bui, er ist der Kolumnist der New York Times Opinion-Sektion, er ist auch der Co-Host des Podcasts Unclear and Present Danger und eine prominentere Figur in meiner TikTok für dich-Page. TikTok will, dass wir Freunde werden, Jamel, ich glaube, die Chinesen, ich denke, wir verabschieden diesen Tag. Thank you, thank you, Chairman Xi.
I want to talk to you a little bit about the TikTok stuff at the end. I want to start just lightly. We have some heavy fare to discuss. And this is actually maybe kind of heavy fare too, because we have some exciting news from the dystopian capital. Spotify wird einen Inaugurationstag, einen Pop-Up Podcast Studio und einen Brunch anbieten, um die Macht von Podcasts in dieser Wahl zu feiern.
Ich habe mich nur gefragt, als zwei prominentere, semi-prominente Podcaster, habt ihr einen Einblick dazu?
I did not receive an invite to this. If I did, I would pretend like I didn't. I have no desire to go to the Spotify-sponsored podcast brunch. Every word of that sounds like something I want no part of.
And just as a little cherry on top, that it's the morning of Donald Trump's second inauguration. That's exactly how you'd want to be spending it, I would imagine. I want to talk about your column after the, oh, I guess it wasn't the first comment of the election, but you wrote one, I guess, last week. And it was for people feeling super down, which I include myself among.
And I think probably 96% of the listeners, except for the handful of hate listeners we've got out there, like Jeffrey Clark, who I love. How you doing, Jeff? And you wrote about a speech from Frederick Douglass, late in life, maybe his last speech. And if you'll indulge me, I'd just like to read some of the excerpts that you wrote. It was from the period, the counter-reconstruction period.
He wrote this, post-reconstruction, it has shaken my faith in the nobility of the nation. I hope and trust all will come out right in the end, but the immediate future looks dark and troubled. Ich kann meine Augen nicht auf die schlechten Fakten vor mir schließen. Er ist ein weiser Mann, als ich bin, der kann sagen, wie tief das moralische Gefühl dieser Republik noch fallen kann.
