, author of The Homefront on Substack, founder of The Union, co-founder of The Lincoln Project and a veteran of Three Decades in campaign politics to sort it all out.

Show notes:

What does three decades in the trenches do to a man?

The mindset of choosing not to vote

On getting blocked by prominent campaign staff and lawmakers

Another candidate atop the Republican ticket would probably be dominating right now

The folly of picking Vance over the other veepstakes contestants

Why voters are not dialed in like the three political junkies in this video/pod

The continuum of Palin to Tucker Carlson to J.D. Vance

Does any normal voter tune into Vance?

What does the GOP look like after November if Trump loses?

When the NYT editorial board was bought in hard on Ron DeSantis in 2022

If Dems win, who’s the next crop of up and comers after Whitmer, Newsom and Shapiro?

Why candidates who emulate Trump don’t do as well as Trump himself

“How long does Trump MAGA last? It could be another 10 years”

Even if he loses, Trump will still control the levers and money of the GOP

Would the RNC change up operations, while keeping the Trump branding?

We’re in a situation where a large part of the country thinks Dems are evil

Celebrities don’t matter … but Taylor Swift is an icon, residing on Mount Olympus

Does the Harris perpetual insertion of her biography into every answer work?
