Wave Watch

November 3, 2026 · 1 h 14 min

Show notes

It's election day and we are joined by our friend Chris Stirewalt to discuss the seemingly impending blue wave and all the ways in which Trump contributed to the expected loss of the senate, whether the polls might be historically wrong, Haley Stevens' statement on her endorsement of Mike Rogers, Ross Douthat's excellent interviewing skills, and a look ahead to the potential democratic nominee in 2028. Plus, Trump's statement on an agreement to end military aid to Israel and how it might undercut candidates who ran on ending it legislatively, and the crew recommends Michael Powell's Atlantic article on Adam Hamawy.
