Trump Tweets, Immigration, Pass the Cranberry Sauce

In his recent New Yorker commentary, Jelani Cobb writes about the defiance some statesare feeling towards President-elect Trump and his policies. Democratic leaders in California and New York have released statements saying they'll protect their most vulnerable communities. 

This hour, we look at how Connecticut's citizens would fare if decisions about issues like immigration fell into the state's hands. We talk about how the Democratic party is feeling a few weeks out from the election, including U.S. Congressman Jim Himes who says the feeling in D.C. is "schizophrenic."

And we poll our panelists about how to deal with political in-fighting at the Thanksgiving table.
