James Carville joins Jim Acosta to break down the stunning collapse in Trump's approval ratings and predict a historic Democratic wave in 2026. Plus, Minnesota Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan discusses the recent tragedy in her state and responds to Trump's immigration policies.
CARVILLE'S BOLD PREDICTIONS:
Trump's approval has nosedived to the mid-to-upper 30s—even in states he won in 2024. The legendary Democratic strategist explains why he's already written off the House and is now focusing on "third tier" Senate races in Mississippi, Texas, South Carolina, and Florida. Special elections are showing Democrats overperforming by 12-14 points across the country. Carville breaks down why the geographic breadth of these results points to what he calls "a monster year" for Democrats.
MINNESOTA'S RESPONSE:
Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan addresses the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretty by an undocumented immigrant with a criminal history, and explains why comprehensive immigration reform—not mass deportations and family separations—is the answer to keeping communities safe.
JIM'S CLOSING:
Jim reveals newly surfaced texts between Steve Bannon and Jeffrey Epstein from 2018 discussing the 25th Amendment for Donald Trump, and asks why the media continues to give Trump a pass on cognitive fitness issues.
