.@RepJayapal says she doesn’t support Dems boosting pro-Trump candidates: “It’s very dangerous to play with fire and give oxygen to these election deniers," she tells @mehdirhasan, "[and] to think that we can control what voters are going to do at the end of the day."

Amid the grim signs of a post-Roe America, Kansas is a glimmer of hope, @mehdirhasan says: It's “the clearest sign yet that American voters are not on board with the right-wing rollback of abortion rights… and that Democrats have an issue that can get their base out to vote."

In a world where too many foreign visits by U.S. politicians boil down to virtue signaling, what were the effects of Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan at this critical moment — and did it pose more risk than reward? Hear @PeterBeinart’s convo w/ @mehdirhasan tonight on @msnbconpeacock.

Several Trump-backed candidates have won in 2022 state primary races. Would things have been different if Dems hadn't funded ads to boost them? “I understand that there’s a strategy,” @RepJayapal says, “but I don’t like it.” Catch her convo w/ @mehdirhasan on @msnbconpeacock.

There was one issue with Trump’s endorsement in Missouri's GOP Senate race: Which candidate named Eric did he back? 🤷‍♂️ In the latest case of “you can’t make this up,” @mehdirhasan says "I think we can all agree that there is definitely one Eric that Trump isn’t endorsing.”

The U.S. has evacuated more Ukrainians to America than it has Afghans — and in a much shorter span of time. “It’s not just Afghanistan. It’s quite similar to Iraqis, to Palestinians, to Syrians,” @HosnaJalil tells @mehdirhasan. “It is a very clear discrimination.”

The drone strike on Ayman al-Zawahri shows the U.S. can stop terrorists from afar. But, @mehdirhasan says, Biden and his predecessors haven't shown "the U.S. is willing and able to clean up the many humanitarian messes it’s helped create across one of the poorest countries."

Trump "tried his damndest to pull the levers of government to get the election overturned," @JonLemire tells @mehdirhasan. "It didn’t work, but just barely." He warns: "There are no guardrails...[It's] the true believers who will be with Trump, working to take office in 2025."

There’s been some talk about Trump losing his grip on the GOP. But on the ground, it’s clear Trump’s election lie narrative isn’t going anywhere, @mehdirhasan says: “He now has an army of election-denying loyalists ... keen to carry the torch of the Big Lie forward into 2024.”

Catch @mehdirhasan and @JonLemire talk all things Trump and more tonight on the MSNBC hub on @peacockTV!
There may be Trump’s ‘Big Lie’ — but we can’t forget about the many other mistruths he’s told, big and small, and his commandeering of the government to “bend to his lies,” @mehdirhasan says. What does that mean for 2024? He and @Jon_Lemire discuss tonight on @msnbconpeacock.

Forward Party co-founder Christine Todd Whitman says Andrew Yang has “indicated” he won’t run in 2024. @mehdirhasan: “If you’re a politician, ‘indicated’ is not a great word. Has Andrew Yang ruled out that he'll be running as a third-party candidate for your party?" Watch:

Joe Manchin’s reconciliation deal with Chuck Schumer surprised many, including most Senate Democrats. But if you think he did to boost Dems before midterms, think again, @mehdirhasan says: “Joe Manchin isn’t looking out for his own party. [He’s] looking out for Joe Manchin.”
