We’re planning a summer mailbag episode of Trial Balloon, so send us your questions.
They can be about the latest political developments, the 2026 midterms, the Democratic Party’s future, what’s happening behind the scenes at Political Wire — or anything else you think Chris and I should tackle.
We’ll answer as many as we can on the podcast. And if there are more good questions than we can fit into the episode, I’ll respond to the rest in a members-only post.
