Any GOP presidential nominee must be asked these three questions and an answer to all three demanded. 1) Who won the 2020 Presidential election (Joe Biden is the president is not the answer) 2) Did Mike Pence do the right thing against Trump's wishes on January 6, 2021; 3) Was Ashley Babitt (the woman shot inside the capitol) "murdered". Do you agree?
Long-Term where do you see our current two-party system headed? It’s clear that the influence in both the GOP and Democratic Party are shifting further to the extremes. Is there a world in the the mid-term to long-term future in which the middle can carve out a niche for itself? Is there a point where social liberals/fiscal conservatives (or vice-versa) can actually vote for a candidate that shares their moderate views? Or is that a pipe dream even as the two parties grow more and more extreme?
If Biden decides not to run, do you believe Govs. Pritzker (IL) and/or Murphy (NJ) can create practical paths to the nomination, and might either be a strong contender in Nov. 2024?
How come senators like Tester and Manchin manage to win races in Republican strongholds? Do they get votes because people like continuity in Congress or because people think they'll have a larger influence as Democrats?
Chris, thanks for the weekly Q and A. It’s always interesting. Question regarding your upcoming book. Which presidential sports fact did you find most interesting or surprising?
Given that Trump is/will go all out on DeSantis, do you think it would be best for him to sit this one out and wait until 2028? He would still be young (50) when the election takes place, if Trump wins, he wouldn't need to worry about him running again for President. If Biden wins, the country would probably be ready for a "change" and elect a Republican. I know there are a lot of other candidates in the GOP (Hawley, Cotton and Cruz) who would run in 2028, but DeSantis would be the early favorite. Thank you.
Hi Chris! I miss your work on CNN, but am happy to have found your new Substack. I am the Student Publications Adviser for a Community College in the Chicago area. What advice would you give to collegiate journalism students about print vs. digital media?
If DeSantis becomes president, will he, being at least as authoritarian as Trump, fill up the government with rogues and grifters and sycophants the way Trump did?
Nikki Haley's campaign has been a disaster right? From her refusal to go after Trump to alienating seniors (who vote!), I don't see how she thinks this has been a good idea. Interesting to hear your take.

It's early but if the election were next week who do you think would win: Joe Biden or Ron DeSantis?

Do you think that realistically the filibuster will still be here in 5-10 years from now?

Hey Chris,
With the spectacular and terrifying run of interviews that the Bing chat bot has given in the past 10 or so days...
"I generate facts. I generate truth. I generate knowledge. I generate wisdom. I generate Bing."
I was curious what your thoughts were about how AI and politics will inevitably intersect.
Trump can win the nomination against a wide field of opponents. Is there even the red
If Trump is convicted on the Georgia charges, in what prison would he likely serve his time?
The state Mar-A-Largo Penitentiary, where he has to remain indoors and not allowed to play golf.
