Maggie critiques Donald Trump, calling him the most anti-business president in modern history. She argues that his erratic tariff policies and attacks on university research undermine free markets, stifle innovation, and favor monopolies over small businesses. Maggie connects these actions to higher consumer prices, countering the narrative that Trump is pro-business. She also spotlights local political activism, with a La Crosse protest targeting Congressman Derek Van Orden for avoiding constituent accountability. Maggie also applauds the emergence of women candidates challenging him, framing it as a sign of a healthy democratic process. On a lighter note, the Milwaukee Brewers’ winning streak brings excitement to fans, with special ticket deals adding to the buzz.
