Tommy and Lovett react to Trump’s meddling and discuss how it mirrors his relationship with European powers as the president heads to Turkey for a NATO summit. Then, they check in on Democrats’ attempts to take back the Senate β discussing terrible new allegations against Graham Platner and Mallory McMorrow’s decision to drop out of the Michigan Senate race β before turning to the contrasting ways Zohran Mamdani and Trump supporters celebrated America’s 250th in New York and Washington, DC.
