1. Why Trump Should Be Worried About 2020

From National Journal:  "What should worry Trump is the GOP's glaring slippage in the suburbs, where brand-name Republicans were unable to sustain the unstable coalition of white-collar professionals and populist-minded Trump fans that propelled so many down-ballot Republicans to victory in 2016."

2. Is Kris Kobach's Defeat in Kansas a Model for How to Beat Trumpism?

From The New Yorker: "no midterm candidate was more Trumplike than Kobach, and his defeat suggests that Trumpism—if not Trump himself—has vulnerabilities."
