About this episode

James Carville discusses the current state of Trump's campaign and the GOP's internal issues.

Trump’s numbers are slipping. The GOP is fracturing. And James Carville is calling it exactly how he sees it. In this unfiltered conversation, Rick Wilson and Carville rip into the state of Trump’s campaign, the cracks forming inside MAGA, and why voter fatigue could reshape the 2026 election. If you’ve been wondering whether the chaos is real—it is. And it’s getting worse. • • • • • You can find James Carville on X @JamesCarville.
