Tommy Tuberville, Republicans have a trick up their sleeve that might save them in November: crack down on in-flight furries! Plus, Jordan Klepper reports from Trump’s meeting with President Xi, where Trump got spooked by his own flyover and showed off his stunning new helipad. So all in all, a productive summit!
