Why the GOP Is now worried about Ohio

Ohio was a political bellwether for many years, but has trended solidly Republican since Donald Trump entered politics.

This episode: senior political correspondent Tamara Keith, senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro, and Ohio Statehouse Newsroom bureau chief Karen Kasler.
