47:44Now PlayingTrump told a reporter this week he doesn't think about the American financial situation — not even a little. Senator Adam Schiff says that admission is a political gift, and Democrats need to take it seriously. With inflation at a three-year high and the Iran war driving gas prices through the roof, the contrast couldn't be clearer — and Schiff says it's already sinking in with voters. He breaks down exactly why Trump just handed Democrats their strongest argument heading into 2026.
Then: Tom Steyer, running for governor of California, makes the case that the fight starts at the state level. With California gas averaging $6.15 a gallon and a jungle primary that could hand the governor's mansion to a Trump-endorsed Republican, Steyer says Democrats can't afford to look away.
