On today's podcast, Chris Cillizza and Matt discuss:
— Every traditional midterm indicator points to a Democratic year, so why do the individual races look dicey?
— Why toss-up Senate races (Alaska, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Ohio, Texas) almost never split 50-50 — they move together
— Michigan: Tucker Carlson says he wouldn’t vote for Mike Rogers “at gunpoint.” Serious question: Is Rogers actually a good candidate?
— 2028 Democratic calendar: South Carolina going first, what it does to Gavin Newsom, Andy Beshear, AOC, and everyone else
— Ted Cruz’s 2028 theory: the last mainstream-ish Reagan Republican standing if Vance and the rest crash
— Texas: James Talarico leading or tied with Ken Paxton for months; Karl Rove, John Cornyn, and John Kennedy all sounding alarms
— Trump’s midterm strategy: “Pretend I’m on the ballot” — but is this strategy smart or dumb?
— Milo Yiannopoulos goes on on Piers Morgan after being deported: hypocrisy, the veil of ignorance, and why “there but for the grace of God go I” matters more than ever.
— And a LOT more!
