Hour 2 of The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show dives deep into the latest political developments, immigration policy debates, and the early maneuvering for the 2028 presidential election. The hour opens with analysis of the ongoing protests in Los Angeles and other cities, highlighting how President Donald Trump's administration has responded with a firm stance on law enforcement and immigration. The hosts frame this as a win for the rule of law and a political victory for President Trump and the Republican Party. A major focus is on California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is positioning himself as the leading Democrat opposing President Trump. The hosts critique Newsom’s recent speech and suggest that his strategy is a calculated move to launch a 2028 presidential campaign. They argue that Newsom’s vision of making America more like California is politically risky on a national scale, citing California’s declining appeal and governance challenges. The conversation shifts to New York, where former Governor Andrew Cuomo is reportedly eyeing a political comeback by running for mayor of New York City. The hosts speculate that Cuomo’s ultimate goal is a 2028 presidential bid, setting up a potential rivalry with other Democratic figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. They analyze the political subtext behind endorsements and intra-party conflicts, emphasizing the early jockeying for influence within the Democratic Party. Education and immigration policy are also central themes. The hosts criticize the strain that mass illegal immigration places on public school systems, particularly in cities like New York, where over 180 languages are spoken in schools. They argue for English as the national language and highlight the declining proficiency rates in reading and math as evidence of systemic failure. Later in the hour, the show features an exclusive interview with New York Post columnist Miranda Devine, who recently sat down with President Trump as her first guest on her new podcast Pod Force One. Devine shares insights from their conversation, including Trump’s reflections on his childhood, his views on Elon Musk, and his strategic mindset heading into a potential second term. Trump reportedly emphasized his readiness to act decisively, his improved team, and his commitment to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. The hour wraps up with a lighter segment where Clay Travis challenges WNBA star Angel Reese to a one-on-one basketball game, sparking humorous debate and listener reactions. The hosts also tease future sports-related content and discuss the idea of a sovereign wealth fund for the U.S., referencing commentary from financial expert Jim Rickards
