The major story on the minds of talk show hosts and callers yesterday (12/2) was President Joe Biden‘s controversial pardoning of his son, Hunter Biden. Beyond that, the conversation switched back to the transition of presidential power and controversy over President-elect Donald Trump‘s department nominations and appointments focusing on the nomination of Kash Patel to head the FBI. Tariffs and a looming trade war came in third followed closely by Trump’s proposed budget cuts and layoffs of Federal employees, the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, the Russia-Ukraine war, the migrant crisis, and health care/abortion rights, according to ongoing research from TALKERS.
