In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, new poll numbers indicate which candidates for President in 2028 skew toward JD Vance, DeSantis, Rubio and Kennedy (in that order) for the GOP. For Democrats, Harris, Newsom, AOC, Buttigieg and Shapiro. The general election pits JD Vance vs. Gavin Newsom. Also Olivia Nuzzi – the US star political reporter known for her cozy access to top Republican figures – dropped an excerpt of her memoir, American Canto. In it, she detailed what she describes as an emotional affair with Robert F Kennedy Jr, who she calls “the politician”, and Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., announced on Thursday he is launching a campaign for California governor in 2026.
