Jonah makes a triumphant return to the Remnant on this episode, where he finally has a stable enough connection to record after a saga of perambulations around America’s western half. Jonah and Nick - his fearful amanuensis - discuss Alaska, the awkwardness of America’s largest political party holding a Zoom convention, and the potential for two actual crazy people to become elected officials within the GOP.

I was also delighted to hear Jonah endorse Mitch Daniels. About 6 weeks ago I resolved that Daniels would be my write-in candidate this cycle (I’m being asked who I want; that’s who I want). I have been a resident of Indiana for 25 years, and he was a great governor. I actually met and chatted with the man twice by chance: once at a health facility (he runs like a deer), and once at Home Depot, when he strode up beside me in the outdoor lighting section. I looked up in surprise and said, “Gov!” He had already become President of Purdue at that point, and I told him that I wished it was him up for 2016. He said that it was not to be. We then chatted outdoor lighting.
So, let’s start a write-in movement at The Dispatch. Let’s surprise the bejesus out of the man, so that on the morning after the election, his secretary says, “President Daniels, you won’t believe this, but you’ve been elected President by write-in… No, I know you’re already this president, I mean the other President!”
Who’s game? Aside from his first, and best qualification (he’s sane and real enough to not want it), he actually reformed the BMV, and made it a pleasant and efficient place. If you can do that, you can run the country!
I'm officially jealous of Jonah's trip.
