    Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Nov 5 2025
    Nov 5 2025
    About Last Night Clay and Buck break down the major political headlines following a pivotal election night. The discussion opens with Zohran Mamdani’s historic win in New York City, where he captured just over 50% of the vote in one of the city’s highest-turnout elections in decades. The hosts analyze why Mamdani’s campaign resonated, citing his energy, entertainment factor, and ability to mobilize younger voters and recent arrivals to the city. They highlight demographic trends, including Mamdani’s overwhelming support among Black voters and strong backing from millennials, Hispanics, and Asians. The conversation then shifts to Democratic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, emphasizing the GOP’s turnout problem. Clay points out that 600,000 Trump voters stayed home in these states compared to the 2024 presidential election, raising alarms for 2026 and 2028. Buck underscores that while these were tough races in blue-leaning states, Republicans must address enthusiasm gaps when Trump isn’t on the ballot. From Nazi to King? Clay and Buck dive deeper into the fallout from the latest election results in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York City, analyzing what the outcomes reveal about voter behavior and party strategies. They emphasize that while the night wasn’t catastrophic for Republicans, it exposed a critical weakness: Trump voters don’t turn out when Trump isn’t on the ballot. They cite data showing 600,000 fewer GOP voters in Virginia and New Jersey compared to 2024, underscoring the challenge for Republicans heading into the 2026 midterms and 2028 presidential race. The hosts dissect Democratic messaging, noting how slogans like “No Kings” and anti-Trump rhetoric continue to energize the left, even in off-year elections. They argue that Democrats successfully frame elections as a referendum on Trump rather than policy, mobilizing their base with emotional appeals rather than substantive governance plans. Clay and Buck contrast this with Republican struggles to motivate turnout, stressing the need for a strategy that extends beyond Trump’s personal magnetism. Let That Sink In The Virginia Attorney General race, where Democrat Jay Jones won despite leaked texts revealing he wished death on political opponents’ children and vowed to piss on their graves. The hosts express outrage that nearly half of voters dismissed these comments as non-disqualifying, calling the result a troubling sign of partisan loyalty overriding basic standards of decency. They warn that this reflects a broader cultural shift where Democrats prioritize party allegiance over character, even for top law enforcement positions. Clay and Buck also touch on healthcare costs and the broken insurance system, criticizing Obamacare and the Supreme Court decision that enabled taxing inactivity. They highlight skyrocketing premiums and lack of transparency as systemic failures, while briefly mentioning Trump’s ongoing legal battles over tariff authority. Professor Clay Nerds Out Examining California’s Proposition 50, which could give Democrats 4–5 new congressional seats through redistricting, offsetting GOP gains in Texas. Clay and Buck argue that Republicans must focus on swing districts Trump won by less than five points and invest heavily in mobilization strategies to maintain control of Congress.A major legal topic dominates the latter half: the Supreme Court review of Trump’s tariff authority. The hosts explain that Trump relied on a 1970s emergency statute to impose tariffs, citing crises like fentanyl and trade deficits. If the Court rules against him, it could invalidate hundreds of billions in tariff revenue and spark a constitutional showdown over separation of powers. Clay and Buck explore historical context, noting tariffs were America’s original revenue source before the income tax, and debate whether refunds would be required if the tariffs are struck down. The discussion expands into tax policy and government overreach, with fiery commentary on property taxes, Social Security’s sustainability, and the welfare state. Listeners call in with sharp takes, including a historical breakdown of tariffs and a controversial claim about women’s voting rights that sparks a lively close to the show. Clay and Buck end by emphasizing how hate-driven politics and envy-based messaging dominate Democratic strategy, while Republicans must counter with economic solutions and cultural engagement.

    Hour 1 - About Last Night
    Nov 5 2025
    In Hour 1, Clay and Buck break down the major political headlines following a pivotal election night.

Clay points out that 600,000 Trump voters stayed home in these states compared to the 2024 presidential election, raising alarms for 2026 and 2028. Buck underscores that while these were tough races in blue-leaning states, Republicans must address enthusiasm gaps when Trump isn’t on the ballot. Economic concerns dominate the analysis, with both hosts stressing that inflation, cost of living, and healthcare remain the top issues for voters nationwide. They argue that Democrats successfully framed the election around cultural and class warfare, while Republicans need sharper messaging on kitchen-table economics. The hour also dives into immigration and cultural shifts in urban politics, warning that rapid demographic changes and lack of assimilation are reshaping cities like New York. Clay and Buck compare today’s dynamics to early 20th-century socialist movements and call for a national conversation on immigration policy. Listeners weigh in with calls from Houston, Charleston, and Staten Island, sharing reactions and relocation plans to red states like Florida and Texas. The hosts note a surge in interest for real estate in these states following the election results. Gender voting patterns also come under scrutiny, with women identified as a decisive factor in Democratic wins. Finally, Clay and Buck reflect on Trump’s surprise endorsement of Andrew Cuomo, the future of the MAGA movement, and whether Mamdani’s tenure will disappoint progressive voters. They predict that despite campaign promises, New York City’s new mayor will likely triple down on redistribution and regulation, worsening economic challenges.

    Hour 3 - Professor Clay Nerds Out
    Nov 5 2025
    Hour 3 of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show delivers in-depth analysis of the New York City mayoral election, national political trends, and a major Supreme Court case that could reshape trade policy. The hour kicks off with guest Ryan Girdusky, who breaks down the surprising demographic shifts in Zohran Mamdani’s landslide victory. While Mamdani dominated among Black and Hispanic voters, Andrew Cuomo unexpectedly won white and Asian voters—yet turnout surged so dramatically that Mamdani prevailed. Girdusky highlights how Curtis Sliwa failed to consolidate even a fraction of the Republican vote, underscoring the GOP’s urban weakness. The conversation pivots to Republican turnout problems, with Clay and Buck citing data showing 600,000 fewer Trump voters in Virginia and New Jersey compared to 2024, despite strong GOP candidates like Jack Ciattarelli. Democrats, fueled by anti-Trump sentiment and slogans like “No Kings”, are voting at near-presidential levels, while Republicans appear complacent. Girdusky warns that youth unemployment, inflation, and high food prices remain critical issues for the GOP to address before the 2026 midterms. He also stresses the need for ballot initiatives—such as making English the official language—to energize conservative turnout. The hour then examines California’s Proposition 50, which could give Democrats 4–5 new congressional seats through redistricting, offsetting GOP gains in Texas. Clay and Buck argue that Republicans must focus on swing districts Trump won by less than five points and invest heavily in mobilization strategies to maintain control of Congress.A major legal topic dominates the latter half: the Supreme Court review of Trump’s tariff authority.
