Clay is joined by Democratic strategist and counselor to President Bill Clinton, Paul Begala, to discuss the Republican Convention, the unrest on our streets, and the policies that he thinks will unite the country around a Biden ticket. If the country follows his advice and Biden follows his plans, will we be telling Trump, “You’re Fired” in November?
