On the latest episode of Nir & Rupar, our live weekly video show, David Nir of The Downballot and Aaron Rupar of Public Notice pull the curtain back on the conventional wisdom that immigration is Donald Trump’s strong suit.

David and Aaron explain:

* Why Trump’s polling on immigration has taken a nosedive since he deployed the military to Los Angeles.

* How a federal judge eloquently demolished Trump’s claim that he’s suppressing a “rebellion.”

* Why Saturday’s “No Kings” rallies across the country are so important for showing Americans opposed to autocracy that they’re not alone.

And much more.
