Previewing the Republican Primary Debate With Governor Chris Sununu
New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu is still playing the Republican presidential primary field. With a little more than two months until the first caucus, the four-term Republican governor still hasn't made a pick. And he’s a major voice in his party — someone who some Republicans and independents wish had run for president himself. He instead chose to advise other candidates in the race. “Republicans could be in real trouble in ’24,” Sununu told Senior Washington Correspondent Saleha Mohsin. “We lost in ’22.” Mohsin spoke with Sununu over Zoom about the third Republican presidential primary debate and what the 2024 election means for the future of the party.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Man With $1.2 Trillion to Spend and an Infrastructure Plan to Sell
In November 2021, President Joe Biden signed the $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Act into law. That hasn’t translated into a clear political win for a president seeking reelection, though. According to a recent Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll, only 38% of voters in seven swing states say they trust President Joe Biden to handle infrastructure, compared to 42% who trust former President Donald Trump. That’s not just bad news for Biden, it’s bad news for White House Senior Advisor Mitch Landrieu, the president’s “infrastructure coordinator.” Senior Washington Correspondent Saleha Mohsin sat down with Landrieu for The Big Take. Landrieu discussed the challenges facing an administration that wants credit for uniting Congress on this historic investment, and how his experience in local and state government rebuilding New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina informs his approach.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
