Day 38 of the government shutdown, and Republicans just got a reality check. Dave Spencer, Kurt Bardella, and Ashley Davis break down why the GOP's 2025 election losses prove what everyone suspected: Trump's magic doesn't transfer. From Mikie Sherrill's 13-point blowout in New Jersey to Abigail Spanberger's Virginia sweep, Democrats showed up when it mattered—and younger voters came home.
But the Democrats aren't popping champagne just yet. The hosts dig into what Cuomo's defeat really means for New York politics, why the economy message matters more than "socialist" scaremongering, and whether Mayor-elect Mamdani can actually deliver on those bold promises. Plus: the shutdown drags toward Thanksgiving, flight cancellations loom, and Bill Gates finally admits maybe the climate isn't ending tomorrow.
This is Practically Political—where we talk politics without the hate, but we're not afraid to call it like we see it.
