David Nir, publisher of The Downballot, and Aaron Rupar, publisher of Public Notice, held their monthly live chat on Thursday to share their insights on some of the most important stories in American politics, including:

* Why Trump calling himself “king” matters—and how New York is fighting back.

* What it actually means to have a constitutional crisis, and why we’re in one already.

* Why Democrats in Congress should not bail out Republicans on any votes, and much more.

David and Aaron also took a wide range of questions from those who participated live.
