The Assignment: Why Republicans Stick with Trump

Sarah Longwell always felt she could argue the big issues with her fellow Republicans and still have a place in the “big tent” party. That all changed with the emergence of Donald Trump, who espoused policies and politics Longwell could never accept. Instead of sulking over her lost party, Sarah got to work, trying to bridge the gap between the Republican party she knew and what it’s become.

CNN Inside Politics: Trump gets a financial lifeline

Moments before today's show began, we learned that a New York appeals court had reduced the bonds he must pay in a civil fraud case to $175 million and gave him more time to pay. That means he might have the cash to put up without having to sell any of his assets. Meanwhile, Trump was in a different courtroom today in the separate, criminal case involving porn star Stormy Daniels. Trump's legal team was chastised by the judge for accusing the Manhattan district attorney's office of prosecutorial misconduct without any evidence.  Learn more about your ad choices.

CNN Inside Politics: House Speaker Mike Johnson’s is in jeopardy

Upheaval in the GOP – House Speaker Mike Johnson is in danger of losing his position. Sources say Democrats are willing to save him if he outlines a pathway to providing aid for Ukraine, which has been stalled for months and badly divides the GOP. While Congress just ended a saga over funding the US government, one that cost the previous Speaker his job in an unprecedented uprising last fall, the new Speaker is facing a similar revolt over the major deal he just cut with the White House to avoid a shutdown. This opens up a new front in the internal GOP war that has defined the 118th Congress and could put Republicans razor thin majority in jeopardy in November.

CNN Political Briefing: The Political Power of TikTok

Who would have thought that TikTok could quickly become an election issue? Last week, the U.S. House voted with bipartisan support in favor of a bill that could ban the popular app. The White House says President Joe Biden is prepared to sign it, but some strategists worry the move could alienate young voters. “This is one of the most scrambled, political situations that I think we have seen this cycle. It's truly bizarre,” says Forbes technology reporter Emily Baker-White.
