After discussing an eventful trip to the DMV, Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are happy to see experts shifting projections towards Republicans in four key House races, with Jim noting that real nominees often fail to poll as well as generic ones. Jim also rips President Trump for reportedly using cell phones that staffers fear could leave Trump – and classified information – vulnerable to hacking or espionage. And they blast Obama Education Secretary Arne Duncan for urging parents across the country to stop sending their kids to school until Congress passes gun control legislation.

Once the public schools are closed he should announce the Department of Education is no longer needed and charge Betsy deVos with the task of transitioning it into a program for refunding tax money to parents of school-age children in the form of vouchers for private schools or stipends in the event that they want to homeschool their own kids and get paid for it.
