Why is Trump encouraging Iran to bomb Sa...

About this episode

Things don’t look as rosy as they might in MAGAland. Texas Republican Ken Paxton was caught on tape blaming Trump’s Iran war for his own tough race. To be fair, Paxton may find he can sink this one on his own. But the picture is the same in many of the deep Red states where Trump is hindering not helping. Last night things came to a new peak with his suggestion that Iran should maybe bomb California. Will any of this tank MAGA chances in the mid terms?

Later, Miles Taylor joins us to discuss why the government has shut down the very bio security department keeping America safe from weapons of mass destruction.
