S2E13 - Walkaway - Conversation with Democrat defector Brandon Straka

Interview with Brandon Straka - interesting and a little combative. Born and raised in rural Nebraska and now a resident of New York City, Brandon created and promotes his #WalkAway Campaign message and his desire to bring a new awareness and understanding to the reality of politics in America today. He left his hatred for Trump and the Democratic party and "walked away" to the MAGA Republicans where he claims his mission is to unify America. We thought his message, while interesting, was a bit extreme in that he feels to fix America means burning the government to the ground. The most interesting takeaway here is that we agreed with Brandon on many topics and it was clear we wanted many of the same things despite our opposing party affiliations. We just felt there was a different way of achieving the goals than "walking away."
