<div>

<p>James and Al sound the alarm over Trump’s deteriorating mental state, and explain the challenges it poses for JD Vance and the effects it will have on the upcoming election.  Then, they analyze the political dynamics at play in the California gubernatorial election, and welcome Dr. Trita Parsi to examine the aftermath of the Iran war.  They discuss the reasons the Iranian regime was able to repel the attack, the need to revisit sanctions to weaken the regime and empower civil society, what the future looks like for Israel and the Gulf states, and the potential for shifting alliances.</p><p>Email your questions to James and Al at <a href="mailto:POLITICSWARROOM@GMAIL.COM">politicswarroom@gmail.com</a> or tweet them to<a href="http://www.twitter.com/@politicon"> @politicon</a>.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you’re from! </p><p><strong>More from James and Al:</strong></p><p><strong>Get </strong><a href="https://politicon.attn.tv/p/z6Z/landing-page"><strong>text updates</strong></a><strong> from Politics War Room and Politicon.</strong></p><p><strong>Watch </strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIMaYVqnSs68BK1IapZNrImkfHwJEDOXy"><strong>Politics War Room</strong></a><strong> &amp; </strong><a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIMaYVqnSs69pLbnSb_2FkHVAoIPznxsC&amp;si=LjHdxLBHye_bgi7d"><strong>James Carville Explains</strong></a><strong> on YouTube.</strong></p><p><strong>James Carville &amp; Al Hunt have launched the </strong><a href="http://www.politicswarroom.com/"><strong>Politics War Room Substack</strong></a></p><p>Get updates and some great behind-the-scenes content from the documentary <strong>CARVILLE: WINNING IS EVERYTHING, STUPID</strong> by following James on X <a href="https://x.com/JamesCarville?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">@jamescarville</a> and his new TikTok <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@realjamescarville">@realjamescarville</a></p><p><strong>Get More From This Week’s Guest: </strong></p><p><strong>Dr. Trita Parsi: </strong><a href="https://x.com/tparsi">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://www.tritaparsi.com/">Website</a> | <a href="https://quincyinst.org/author/trita-parsi/">Quincy Institute For Responsible Statecraft</a> | <a href="https://www.amazon.com/stores/Trita-Parsi/author/B001JRTKQI?ref=ap_rdr&amp;shoppingPortalEnabled=true">Author </a></p><p><strong>Please Support Our Sponsors:</strong></p><p><strong>Mint Mobile:</strong><br />Get premium wireless for just $15 per month at <a href="http://mintmobile.com/warroom">mintmobile.com/warroom</a></p><p><strong>3-Day Blinds:</strong><br />For their buy 1 get 1 50% off deal, head to <a href="http://3dayblinds.com/WARROOM">3DayBlinds.com/WARROOM</a></p></div>
