Eric EricksonHOST
And I will tell you, coming out of the Republican convention in Dallas, there is some real doom and gloom from some Republicans.
Eric EricksonHOST
Now, I, I don't expect Chris LaCivita to, uh, pay attention to this program or to me, but I saw Dasha Burns, uh, from Politico, and Politico, let's just be honest, uh, it, it does some good reporting, but overall, Politico is more and more becoming a, a progressive publication.
Eric EricksonHOST
It, it has deep, deep biases towards the Democrats.
Eric EricksonHOST
And Politico ran a story about, uh, the doom coming from Dallas and how a lot of Republicans really are privately, uh, worried about the Senate.
Eric EricksonHOST
As rep- as GOP lawmakers, candidates, and party officials gather for their midterm convention, their conversations reveal how the party's thinking.
Eric EricksonHOST
And essentially, what this boils down to is panic, panic, doom and gloom, we're all gonna die.
Eric EricksonHOST
And I saw Chris LaCivita on, on Twitter push back on this Dasha Burns thing, and I'm like, "I'm with LaCivita on this." I have run the numbers.
Eric EricksonHOST
The Democratic polling gap, as I said the other day, tends to run five points ahead of the GOP, and after Labor Day, it begins to consolidate where it's about two points ahead.
Dasha BurnsHOST
I mean, this going on offense against DeSantis, like, dunking on DeSantis is a favorite pastime for a lot of people in Trump world, namely, like, top DeSantis troll from 2024.
Dasha BurnsHOST
That, that award probably goes to Chris LaCivita, who was a co campaign manager and senior advisor on Trump's 2024 campaign, and now is working on, on MAGA Inc.
Dasha BurnsHOST
He told me, quote, "The soon to be ex-governor of Florida once again shows he has zero imagination or understanding on setting the table to drive a political conversation that benefits all Americans." Another Trump ally said to me that Trump understands economics and winning elections much better than little Ron DeSantis, who was blown out in a landslide in 2024, saying, "This attempt to bash the president's proposal that puts real money in Americans' bank accounts is a desperate attempt to position himself for 2028.
Dasha BurnsHOST
He will get ruined again." And therein lies the rub, Adam, right? Everyone is seeing what Ron DeSantis is doing as a 2028 play.
speaker_0HOST
It's got eight, nine, maybe even 10 other states where they're playing a v- a variety of offense and defense in, that that money's almost already spoken for.
John AshbrookHOST
Well, I think we're gonna get some of those answers about the plans that MAGA Inc. has going forward later in the program when we have Chris LaCivita and James Blair to, to t- talk through what their strategy is.
John AshbrookHOST
You know, they're probably not gonna make all the news on our show-
speaker_0HOST
Yeah
15 MINS LATER
speaker_0HOST
Yeah, any TSA complaints, I'm sure he's k- field your email.
John AshbrookHOST
Yeah.
speaker_0HOST
[laughs] All right, so, uh, next we talk to basically the belles of the ball here, uh, two prime candidates for the most important people at these conventions, 'cause they hold an awful lot of the purse strings for MAGA Inc. and control an awful lot of the political strategy here for the President of United States, James Blair and Chris LaCivita.
John AshbrookHOST
Fellas, how we doing?
Rob CarsonHOST
No.
John FredericksGUEST
La Civita poll tested this to death.
Rob CarsonHOST
Yeah.
John FredericksGUEST
They poll tested it.
Brian DerrickHOST
So Axios published a piece just this morning called Vance's Secretive Donor Network about how Vance is building a secret operation to run in 2028 backed by all of these tech bros and far right donors who have been really influential in the Trump administration.
Brian DerrickHOST
So some of those individuals include GOP donor Ray Washburn, RFK Jr., HUD Secretary Scott Turner, Sean Duffy, the guy with his own reality show where he tells his daughter not to go to college, Senator Eric Schmidt, Trump 2024 campaign manager Chris LaCivita.
Brian DerrickHOST
Nightmare.
Brian DerrickHOST
Trump White House chief of staff Reince Priebus, Hal Lambert, professional bareback rider... no comment, Rocker Steiner, it's bad.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
There's some good people in there.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
Chris LaCivita.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
There's some good people in there, some not.
Jonah GoldbergHOST
But the way I imagine it is they come in and they got like three, four scenarios, right? One is we give the NRSC and the NR triple, you know, the campaign committees a bunch of the money for this super PAC money that you have.
Bradley JayeGUEST
But I mean, that had an effect.
Bradley JayeGUEST
And it, like, Chris, like, you know this.
Bradley JayeGUEST
You've been r- in and around the business.
Bradley JayeGUEST
Like, all these pollsters, none of them want to be outliers.
12 MINS LATER
Bradley JayeGUEST
Mm
Chris SalcedoHOST
... uh, th- they're not pushing back here in Texas.
Chris SalcedoHOST
The, the left-wing Black preachers have abandoned Jesus Christ here in, in Texas to support the radicalized Islamic socialist movement.
Chris SalcedoHOST
But anyway, I, I digress.
Jeff SteinGUEST
They were classified as the enemy the enemy within the so-called deep state.
Jeff SteinGUEST
And they came in and just took a buzzsaw, including when senior intelligence advisors at ODNI wrote a report about this Trump allegations about the Venezuelan drug gang Trendiagua, that it was a deliberate campaign to invade the United States.
Jeff SteinGUEST
And the advisory council said, no, we don't have any evidence of that.
Jeff SteinGUEST
We don't think that's true.

They just made, Caroline's going to be the spokesperson for that.
John FredericksHOST
What's $1.5 million? This was a La Civita test case.
John FredericksHOST
If we do this, can we get our voters out for a nondescript disaster candidate? Answer, yes.
John FredericksHOST
