  • Is Trump *trying* to hurt the GOP?

    On this week’s PN Pod, Paul and I discuss Trump’s North Korea-style taxpayer-funded propaganda videos, why they’re likely to backfire, and then broaden the conversation out to an examination of Trump’s baffling midterm strategy. We also get into the Kansas and Iowa Senate races and our level of optimism that Democrats can win control of the chamber.

  • Won’t Xi be my friend?

    In this week’s PN Pod, Paul and I discuss the Trump-Xi summit and Trump’s pathetic thirstiness to be besties with authoritarian rulers, the president’s almost unfathomable ignorance about AI, taxpayers footing the bill for Trump propaganda ads the administration is placing on right-wing cable networks, why Paul expects the trickle of Republicans opposing Trump to become a flood, and more!

  • Fox & Frenemies

    This week’s episode of the PN Pod features me and the excellent Juliet Jeske of Decoding Fox News going deep on the growing indications that Fox News is starting to sour on Trump, Julet’s takeaways from watching 14 hours of Trumpapalooza, and Maria Bartiromo’s firing amid the ongoing Smartmatic suit. We close with some big picture thoughts about Fox News’s place in the rapidly changing media landscape during this era of Late Trumpism.

  • "Trumpapalooza"

    This week’s episode of the PN Pod features Paul and me discussing “Trumpapalooza” and why it’s likely to backfire on Republicans, Trump’s self-defeating trade war with Canada, and Paul’s growing concerns about the administration’s tampering with mail voting and what it could mean for the midterms. We close by getting into how Supreme Court reform is becoming table stakes for the 2028 Democratic primary.

    This week’s episode of the PN Pod features Paul and me going deep on the Natalie Harp saga, including why it’s causing Trump’s MAGA cronies to go ballistic on anyone who talks about it. We also discussed Trump’s dire polling and the likelihood his approval rating sinks into the 20s yet this year.

  • Fauci Derangement Syndrome

    In today’s PN Pod, Paul and I discuss Republicans coming down with a real bad case of FDS (Fauci Derangement Syndrome) and why they’re suddenly trying to rewrite the history of one of Trump’s signature failures, the unholy power of gas prices to shape American politics, why centrist Dems are mostly losing the fight with the left flank of the party, and much more.

    In the latest edition of the PN Pod, Paul and I discuss Trump’s tantrum at the NATO summit and how nobody at home or abroad seems to really care at this point, Graham Platner’s spectacular implosion and what it says about the importance of vetting and appealing to voters with something more than vibes, Mitch McConnell’s health crisis and his sad legacy of obstruction, and more.
