Diplomacy, Sanctions, and Voting Controversies

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and RCP White House correspondent Phil Wegmann discuss reactions to yesterday’s White House meeting between Trump, Zelenskyy and European leaders, and they discuss Trump’s announcement that he would sign an executive order in an effort to end mail-in voting. They also talk about MSNBC’s rebranding as MSNOW, and California governor Gavin Newsom’s new social media strategy built on parodying Trump’s signature Truth Social posts. Next, Tom talks to RCP Senior Elections Analyst Sean Trende about the changing nature of politics in Pennsylvania, and why the state will remain central to national politics for the foreseeable future. And lastly, Andrew talks to Peter Lipsett, vice president of Donor's Trust about his summer podcast series “What is the Right,” which is running as part of the Giving Ventures Podcast. They discuss the division within the conservative movement between “Natcons" and “Freecons”; and the future of the conservative movement after Trump leaves office.
