This episode examines how former Florida governor and presidential contender Jeb Bush plans to tackle “Mount Washington” the same way he claims to have tackled “Mount Tallahassee.” Gomes talks with Florida TaxWatch President & CEO Dominic Collabro and Dr. Ed Moore, president & CEO of the Independent Colleges & Universities of Florida, during Bush’s kick off speech on domestic policy in Tallahassee.

Gomes also talks with John Celock, Editor of the Celock Report and author of The Next Generation: Young Elected Officials and their Impact on American Politics about who’s likely to be in and out after Florida’s congressional-district maps are redrawn and why it might be helpful for other presidential campaigns to get into a fight with Donald Trump.
