EXCERPT:

PRZYBYLA: "What Trump sold on the campaign trail in terms of his populist economic agenda is not how he’s governed, and so the danger here I think for all Republicans is that this working class support for {resident Trump has shown to be very shallow, when you have a Democrat come into an area where, by the way, there’s still more people in this district registered as Democrats to make that populist economic argument. You saw the clips there on how Conor Lamb actually ran against the tax cuts. He took people back to those issues that Trump promised to protect on the campaign trail, Medicare and Social Security and really stayed focused on those economic issues versus the cultural issues."
SCARBOROUGH: "Right."
PRZYBYLA: "That’s a warning sign for all Republicans that this Trump working class support is in fact shallow."
