It’s a Dispatch Politics takeover with Mike, Andrew, and David (Drucker) offering up some pre-game analysis ahead of the Iowa and New Hampshire caucuses. Will Nikki Haley take second place after Donald Trump in New Hampshire? Was President Joe Biden’s Valley Forge speech a sneak peek at his campaign? And will Vivek Ramaswamy ever shut up? Kevin will host to help them sort it all out. 

Grab a drink (or a few), get your questions ready, and join us at 8 p.m. ET on YouTube for this week’s Dispatch Live.

    This was put up after the event, wasn't it? I check this to be sure I don't miss a Live event, but this hasn't been up. Or am I doing something wrong?

    Mostly off topic but the LA Times is offering six months for $1. You can sign up, immediately cancel and still get six months. Seems like a great deal. You don't have to worry about accidently renewing - but if you like you can.

    I'm not familiar with that paper at all but I'm checking it out. You're welcome!

    The Iowa caucus format will be difficult for non-Trump voters. In the past local caucuses have varied from civil and organized, to total chaos and confusion. In the old caucus format, individuals had to show and voice their support, visible to all. Then they had to walk out into a dark parking lot. But now, Trump's supporters yell, harass and threaten. It can be intimidating when surrounded by people that think beating opponents with a flagpole, is acceptable behavior. Who will dare to stand up and take the heat for supporting someone other than Trump? Does a caucus have the sanctity and safety of a private voting booth? We will soon see if the Iowa Caucus format has changed to include more privacy and less intimidation?

    I heard from one of my many liberal friends that David French wrote an argument in favor of the Supreme Court upholding the Colorado ban on Trump. Have you read it and what do you think? I would love to find a way to make Trump disappear but this seems like a really bad president to set. Any thoughts? I'm hoping to tune in at 8, depending on the storm here in Tampa..

        Thanks, I did. Interesting argument, would still like to hear others take on it. It all comes down to who gets to decide, I guess. It would be nice If they'd decide this quickly....

          You're welcome. I too would like to hear others on this, but at least we're a bit more informed now.

    This afternoon I was reviewing the presidential election schedule with my kids. They noticed that Michigan is on the schedule for a Republican primary on 2/27 and a Republican caucus on 3/2. Can anyone provide us with an explanation as to why there is both?
