Summary
Scott and Jessica are joined by political scientist Larry Sabato, founder and director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia. They talk about the biggest current threats to American democracy, and why talking up these threats to democracy doesn’t seem to be super effective messaging. Plus, Sabato consults his notorious “crystal ball” for early predictions about the 2026 midterm elections.
