Each week, MeidasTouch Editor-in-Chief Ron Filipkowski joins Washington Bureau Chief Pablo Manríquez to answer five questions directly from paid Meidas+ subscribers about the biggest stories shaping the country.
With Election Day rapidly approaching, this week’s conversation looked beyond the midterms to examine what Democrats could actually accomplish if they regain control of Congress, whether Trump administration officials could face state prosecutions despite presidential pardons, and what can be done about Elon Musk’s extraordinary influence over American communications and national security.
Ron and Pablo also discussed Sen. Raphael Warnock’s proposal to rebuild the Democratic Party in traditionally Republican states and Ron’s theory about why Trump’s increasingly bizarre campaign appearances could be hurting his own party.
Paid Meidas+ subscribers can submit questions for future editions of Ask the Editor in the comments section of Ron’s Daily Bulletins.
Let’s dive in.
