The MeidasTouch Podcast examines Donald Trump’s collapsing approval ratings in North Carolina and the Senate race between Democrat Roy Cooper and Republican Michael Watley. Hosts discuss Watley’s avoidance of economic questions and his past appointment of a convicted child molester, contrasting this with Cooper’s focus on cost-of-living crises and the Iran war. Governor Cooper joins to argue that voters are frustrated by Trump’s policies and seek an independent senator to restore accountability and protect healthcare and housing affordability.
