Don't Take the Bait! Trump's Messaging Scheme by Occupying D.C.
Description
After a week away, Chuck Rocha returns from New Orleans to Washington D.C. where Trump’s show of military force has locals on edge. The two dig into what’s really behind the spectacle—midterm messaging, crime politics, and redistricting battles. Chuck assesses the messaging battlefield for the 2026 midterms, while Mike presses that the key to Democrats winning is through the Latino Vote, rather than pursuing a redistricting fiasco. With anecdotes from Netroots Nation, a look at Ruben Gallego’s approach to winning over working-class voters, and a blunt conversation about what Democrats must do to avoid losing the Latino Vote again, you won't want to miss this episode.
