Hi, Steve.
How are you doing?
Yes.
Good.
I want to start in New York City.
It's where we are.
Mayor Mamdani has endorsed candidates in three congressional primaries.
In two of them, he is backing progressive candidates who are trying to oust more moderate incumbents.
How vulnerable are the incumbents in those races?
Because Mamdani's really been out there something against Espaillat.
I mean, how much sway does the mayor's endorsement have in these particular districts?
So you compare that to New York's 12th congressional district, which is where Jack Schlossberg, grandson of JFK, who I interviewed just a couple of weeks ago, he's running for in the Democratic primary.
Schlossberg has used his endorsement of Mamdani as proof that he is, in fact, more progressive than the other folks that he's running against.
How much does a Mamdani endorsement – how much does it affect support in New York's 12th district?
And by the way, Mamdani didn't endorse anybody in this district.
They would have a different perspective on Israel, for instance, versus the districts that you were talking about earlier that were actually getting the Mamdani endorsements.
OK, I want to talk about South Carolina because I, you know, pose this as Mamdani endorsements versus Trump endorsements.
And that's where South Carolina comes into the picture here.
So President Trump initially endorsed Lieutenant Governor Pam Evett.
But ahead of the runoff last week, he said on Truth Social that he is also endorsing her opponent, Attorney General Alan Wilson.
