After Kara and Nayeema discuss Dianne Feinstein’s death and her
legacy as a leader, we turn to Kara's interview with Adam
Kinzinger. The former Republican congressman has said he would only
vote for Trump in one scenario: if his opponent were Satan. Once a
rising star in the Tea Party, Kinzinger is now a leading voice
inside the GOP’s anti-Trump cohort. He was one of only ten House
Republicans who voted to impeach Trump after January 6, 2021 — and,
like many of his peers, he paid a high price: his seat in Congress.
We discuss whether his political sacrifice was worth it, what
happens in the “Trump Resistance” text chain and why so many
Republicans won’t come out against Trump — even when they see him
as a threat to democracy. This conversation was taped live at
the Texas Tribune Festival on September 22, 2023. Questions
