On today's podcast, Chris Cillizza and Matt discuss:
— Trump’s repeated Texas and Ohio stops as a sign of a Republican base-motivation problem
— Ken Paxton’s leaked audio, and whether Senate Republicans are laying groundwork to throw him under the bus
— Who actually decides? — John Thune and the Senate Leadership Fund versus MAGA Inc. — and the scapegoat risk if Texas is abandoned
— Chuck Schumer might not be so stupid after all?
— Mike Rogers’ Canada-tariff reversal, and other Republicans distancing from Trump on tariffs and Iran
— JD Vance as a tenuous heir: charisma, shapeshifting, and the VERY ONLINE trap
— Buy-low 2028: Why Ted Cruz is a dark horse to watch
— And MUCH more!
