Show Notes
On Tuesday, September 8, Rush and Reagan tear into the GOP's first-ever midterm convention in Dallas and ask the question nobody in the party wants answered: is a 100-plus speaker lineup a show of strength or a five-alarm panic dressed up as strategy?
From there, the show gets sharper. Trump's approval slide and the Democratic enthusiasm edge get measured against 2018's messy lessons. Reuters/Ipsos numbers showing 71% disapproval on cost of living force a hard look at whether Dallas's tax-relief pitch even matches what voters are angry about. Politico's list of no-shows and undecideds — including Thune, despite being in town — turns into a real fight over snub versus smart politics. DeSantis's warning about a one-man turnout machine gets tested against Nashville's special election numbers, and Paxton-Talarico's shift to toss-up shows cracks nobody's talking about yet.
Rush and Reagan don't agree on everything here, and they don't pretend to. Tune in tomorrow to see who's right — and tell us where you land.
