James and special guest host, Chief Media Advisor to the Bush presidential campaigns, Mark McKinnon, discuss their rise to politics in the pre-Trump era, Texas politics, faith, corruption, the responsibility of Congress after the midterms, nominating a president, and the outrageous campaign tactics used by Republicans in the MAGA era. Then, master Democratic strategist Doug Sosnik joins them to look at the polls, Trump’s impact on the midterms, how voters perceive corruption, the shift in the opinions of working-class voters and independents, and the evolving identity of the Republican Party in the twilight years of Trump.
