Pete's Mehdi Hasan stops by for a political conversation about Donald Trump’s second term, describing it as extraordinarily corrupt, with examples including crypto dealings, foreign money flowing into Trump-linked accounts, no-bid contracts, and family members benefiting from government connections. It also discusses the political fallout from the Iran war, rising gas prices, and how these issues may hurt Republicans heading into the midterms, while arguing that Democrats are gaining energy and could win key races in the House, Senate, and states like Michigan and Texas. A major part of the discussion focuses on anti-Muslim racism and hypocrisy in political and media coverage, especially around Arab-American and Muslim candidates such as Abdul El-Sayed and Zohran Mamdani, and criticizes Democrats for not consistently defending Muslims.

The Bulwark's Sarah Longwell explains “the Bush line” as the approval floor George W. Bush left office at, 32%, which she says mattered because it helped hollow out the Republican Party and made it easier for Donald Trump to take over and reshape it; in her view, Trump being below that line would signal the MAGA experiment was a failure, burden future Republicans like J.D. Vance and Marco Rubio, and help Democrats in the midterms, especially since she believes Trump doesn’t care much about Republican losses, is surrounded by yes-men, and is focused instead on himself, his legacy, and using his presidency to get rich and go after enemies. Sarah Longwell is publisher of The Bulwark, host of The Focus Group podcast, and author of “How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time,” out on September 8.
