Description

Voters in the seven swing states that elected Trump in 2024 thought he'd make the economy better. His perceived strength on the economy is the cornerstone Jenga piece of the whole Trump Tower. And he keeps making the economy worse. Meanwhile, Democratic voters are highly engaged—but just not with the party, whose brand is struggling. Plus, Republicans are still trying to steal the House, and how a stronger, re-imagined local news media can help restore trust in national news.



Chuck Todd joins Tim Miller.

Today, you and Todd described Susie Wiles as not being in the "insane" group. You imply she is one of the "normal" Republicans. As the gate keeper, she can either stop the staff from giving Trump bad info, or she can later correct what does get through. She is apparently doing neither. You should stop being an apologist for those who you claim "know better" - they don't.
