GOP Gov. Mike DeWine: "It is not in the United States' interest, certainly not in Ohio's interest, to have people who are working every single day, who are supporting a family, buying houses, and really are contributing, and yank them out."

Tillis: "My goodness, how many ceasefires have we had over the past several months?"

Sen. Chris Murphy: "Right now the biggest threat to this country are not a handful of House candidates in New York, it is the president of the United States who is trying to destroy American democracy."

KARL: There's a constitutional requirement that you have to be a natural-born citizen to run for president. You were not born here. Do you think that's something that should be changed? MAMDANI: No. I think the Constitution looks good just the way it is.

Imagine trying to convince Midwesterners that this is a state fair…I bet there’s not a butter cow or a fried Oreo in sight.
