A week of warning signs for the GOP?

This week saw staffing changes at the White House, the president hitting the road to campaign in Republican strongholds, and backlash to a deal to buy diesel fuel from Russia. We break down what it all means as we enter the final sprint before the midterm elections. Plus, President Trump made inroads with young voters in 2024. But there are some signs that he's now losing that ground. And, of course, Can't Let It Go. This episode: senior political correspondent Tamara Keith, White House correspondent Franco Ordoñez, senior political editor and correspondent Domenico Montanaro, and political reporter Elena Moore. This podcast was produced and edited by Lexie Schapitl and Bria Suggs. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi. Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.
