George Bush’s 2000 election lawyer: Trump’s court battles won’t change the election result (E946)

We speak to George W. Bush’s lawyer for the litigation in Florida during the 2000 election, Barry Richard. He discusses whether Joe Biden really is president-elect, why Attorney General William Barr’s attempts to investigate election fraud to force recounts are pointless, why the 2000 election is different from the 2020 election regarding ballots, why Donald Trump’s calls to stop the vote count are harmful for democracy and much more! Finally, we speak to James Suzman, author of ‘Work: A History of How We Spend Our Time’. He discusses how work as we know it is really a modern concept that didn’t exist until recently, the capitalist global economy and how it forces people into unfulfilling work, why we may need to look to our hunter-gatherer past to rebuild and reshape our economies post-coronavirus, why the hunter-gatherer attitude to work may be more beneficial when it comes to sustainability, fulfilment from work and much more!
