21:43Now PlayingNOTUS's Evan McMorris-Santoro and Molly Jong-Fast discuss comments from Sebastian Gorka, who in an interview suggested Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes could be treated as potential targets under a Trump-era counterterrorism approach, framing it as part of a broader loyalty test inside the conservative movement. They argue that Carlson and Fuentes represent different kinds of threats to Trump’s coalition—Carlson as a high-profile anti-war critic with influence among disillusioned independents, and Fuentes as a radical figure with a growing online following that mainstream Republicans struggle to contain. The conversation broadens into how Trump’s inner circle operates as an “audience of one,” with staff and candidates constantly adjusting to his priorities, even when they clash with midterm messaging on affordability, gas prices, and foreign policy. They cite Texas political maneuvering and other races as signs that Trump’s shifting agenda and rising unpopularity with key voter groups could complicate Republican plans, leaving party strategists scrambling to reconcile base politics with general-election reality.
