On today's Substack LIVE conversation, Chris Cillizza and Matt discuss:

— Trump’s “No More Mr. Nice Guy” meme — why Trump is posting Terminator-style AI images in the middle of the night (and what it says about his mindset).

— Trump’s Revenge Obsession – The DOJ going after James Comey while the economy and gas prices suffer.

— Trump at 33% Approval – Historic lows, Republican panic over 2026 midterms, and why the “MAGA” namebrand is toxic in competitive districts.

— Supreme Court Bombshell – Landmark Voting Rights Act ruling could allow Republicans to redraw Southern districts and potentially flip 5-10 House seats.

— GOP Fracturing in Congress – Chaos on FISA reauthorization, the Farm Bill, closed parts of DHS, and the upcoming Tom Massie primary (Trump’s #1 target).

— 2028 Early Outlook – Field vs. JD Vance, Trump’s slipping grip on the party, and rising talk of Rubio, Don Jr., or a Tucker-style candidate.

— And MUCH more!
