Trump’s High-Risk, High-Reward Kentucky Gamble

from The Josh Hammer Show · host The Josh Hammer Show

Josh opens the show breaking down the high-stakes Kentucky primary as anti-Trump Congressman Thomas Massie faces off against Trump-backed challenger Ed Gallen. Josh explains what a Massie victory would mean for President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, while also sounding the alarm over polls showing the president sitting under 40% in key numbers. Josh also reacts to comments from California Governor Gavin Newsom about a potential “break the glass” scenario if two Republicans advance in California’s governor primary, exposing just how panicked Democrats are becoming about losing control. Plus, Josh takes aim at remarks from New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani regarding a famous quote from President Ronald Reagan. While Josh says he doesn’t fully agree with Reagan’s quote in today’s economy, he argues Mamdani is completely detached from reality for claiming hard-working Americans can’t still get ahead. Josh also exposes the outrageous ways New York City is spending taxpayer dollars, dives into the true meaning behind “Nakba,” and explains why the release of a recent propaganda video should outrage every American.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
