This week’s episode of the Aaron Rupar Show features returning guest Ron Filipkowski setting the table for the 2024 GOP primary. Hours before Ron DeSantis launched his campaign in sad fashion with a Twitter Space that quickly turned into a technical fiasco, Filipkowski and I discussed why kicking things off in that manner was a strange choice even under the best circumstances. But to my surprise, Filipkowski made a case that DeSantis still has a good chance of beating Trump, and he explained to me how that scenario could unfold. We also talked about the potential the DeSantis/Trump race has to tear apart the Republican Party, Tim Scott’s longshot bid, and much more.

Filipkowski is extremely plugged in and doesn’t pull punches, so I hope you’ll enjoy our conversation as much as I did. Listen to it at the top of this post (or wherever you get your podcasts), or watch the footage below via my YouTube page.

New episodes drop each Thursday morning. Next week’s guest will be Rolling Stone’s Nikki McCann Ramírez.

Please subscribe to my YouTube page and share the show to spread the word. And if you’d like to support my work, consider upgrading to a paid subscription to Public Notice.

I’ll be back tomorrow with an explainer on the debt ceiling. Until then, I hope you like the pod.
