Summary

Donald Trump's enemies did not have a good week. An erstwhile Never Trump candidate crashes and burns in a special election where the Trump-endorsed candidate racks up the most votes and shuts out the Democrats from a runoff. Liz Cheney might be on the way out of leadership because she can't stop clashing with the former president. Michael Kruse of Politico Magazine joins us to discuss one of Trump's earliest endorsements and how it's already reshaping a race in Ohio.
