A Year of No Woman President; Flake, Trump and the GOP; The Forces That Keep You Away From the Polls

Sunday Calling | Oct 26, 2017

It's been a year since the 2016 presidential election. For the next four weeks, Joan Walsh, national correspondent for The Nation and MSNBC political analyst, will be here to help you take a deep breath and make sense of the news. She'll also be taking your calls!

On this first installment, Rebecca Traister discusses the past year of not having a female president, but in which issues affecting women seem to be more at the center of the national conversation than before. Then, former RNC Chairman Michael Steele weighs in on the recent feuds between Donald Trump and Republican Senators like Jeff Flake and Bob Corker, and the battle over what it means to be a Republican today. And, we'll check in on the health of our democracy with voting rights experts Ari Berman and Christina Greer
