Fault Lines hosts and guests will discuss the narrow lead the Democrat Conor Lamb holds over his Republican challenger Rick Saccone in the Pennsylvania special congressional election. FOX news reports, "the close margin was another setback for the president following Democratic Sen. Doug Jones' victory in Alabama's special election in December." Considering that Trump won this district by 20% in 2016, is this a bellwether for the November midterms? Are Democrats poised for a historic "Blue Wave" election?
Hosts and guests will also evaluate a possible meeting between North Korean Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump; guilty verdicts in the Percoco corruption trial; defamation accusations against Lee and guest Jim Hoft; the "Gig" Economy; and presumptive CIA Director Gina Haspel's record regarding torture and destruction of evidence-as well as other important news and issues in the "Divided States of America."
