Mark DavisHOST
So GOP consultant is one of those job titles that just lies in ruins because most of them are Trump-hating weasels.
Mark DavisHOST
This David Urban, and he keeps showing up on CNN.
Mark DavisHOST
He was on with Paul Begala talking about how woke Opie did at the town hall.
David UrbanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Oh, Caitlin, Caitlin, Caitlin.
Tom SullivanHOST
But the, uh, licensees, the, the, the bars around the country are very particular about you do not call yourself an attorney or hold yourself out to be a lawyer unless you have passed the bar exam.
Tom SullivanHOST
Uh, David Urban, Republican strategist, also weighed in.
David UrbanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Um, listen, it's, it's a distraction.
David UrbanSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
You do-
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
I just heard him a second ago saying, "You, you're the one with the two kids at home," um, which was good recall, 'cause that happened about 8:15.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
Uh, David Urban, you're also here with us, and as you're watching that, you know, Republicans have been sweating this race.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
I, I think as Shermichael just laid out there, he thinks that maybe Governor Abbott being at the top of that ticket will help pull Ken Paxton, Talarico's opponent, across the line.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
What did you hear tonight? What stood out to you?
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
Well, all right.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
We got a lot more thoughts to get to tonight.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
Uh, David Urban, everybody's here.
Kaitlan CollinsHOST
Harry Enten is also standing by with us.
Mark DavisHOST
Most of the people welcomed to the cable news world as GOP strategists are, uh, wounded old establishment dinosaurs who hate Trump and can't believe that the party has, uh, left the squishy world of Bush.
Mark DavisHOST
Uh, and most of them, uh, most of the reasons you find GOP strategists on CNN, on MSNBC, various other networks, is so they can bag on Trump and people can say, "Look, there's a Republican bagging on Trump." I have not heard of David Urban before.
Mark DavisHOST
This is cut five.
Mark DavisHOST
He's on CNN, and this is kind of interesting because here is an act- I guess, uh, and I think he worked, uh, as an advisor on the Trump campaign, [laughs] so maybe that's why he's just smarter than the average GOP strategist.
Mark DavisHOST
But as we've talked about the various hurdles, the perceived and actual hurdles of the Iran war and affordability, inflation is out, it's three point seven percent, still better than Biden.
Mark DavisHOST
There are other elements of the economy.
Mark DavisHOST
Uh, in fact, as I go into this, this cut of David Urban, let me ask you something about y'all's life I know things are expensive.
Mark DavisHOST
Gas is, gas is too high.
Mark DavisHOST
Uh, and most of them...

Tim GrahamHOST
And then of course, CNN last night had the Tallarico town hall, where some of that went on.
Tim GrahamHOST
But the best part of that was afterwards, where, uh, David Urban came on and said, "I would like Daniel Dale to come in and evaluate Tallarico for truthfulness," which of course is kind of a joke.
Tim GrahamHOST
But Erin Burnett was-
Eric ShinerPANELIST
