Show notes
Tuesday night, a blue tsunami crashed across the political map. Democrats won control of the House and the Senate with room to spare, flipping seats in states that once seemed unimaginable: South Carolina, Kansas, Texas. Ezra Klein sits down with his editor Aaron Retica to survey the wreckage of Trump’s 2024 coalition, and what Democrats can learn from their victories. Mentioned: “Kansas Senator Goes Rogue With Video Response to Medical Debt Lawsuits” by Sarah Kliff Thoughts? Guest suggestions? Email us at ezrakleinshow@nytimes.com.
