Political scientist and professor Seth Masket joins Jonah to discuss his latest piece in The Dispatch and get to the bottom of the changing constitutions and compositions of the political parties. Seth and Jonah dig into the history of American political realignment, the GOP’s strategy in winning over the working class, the black electorate, and the current state of polling. Plus: the strange obsession with undecided voters, Jonah’s ongoing existential dread, and a grievance airing power hour.
