Winning an election and exercising power afterward are different things. That distinction runs through The Bulwark Daily's post-midterm conversations, as Tim Miller and his guests ask what Republican losses mean for Donald Trump's presidency, congressional oversight and diplomacy.

The Bulwark's weekday political podcast has climbed from 143rd to 56th on Apple's podcast chart in Canada. Its outlook is explicit: this is a Never Trump show built around defending liberal democracy, mixing long-form interviews with pointed political commentary.

In the November 10 episode, Susan Glasser argues that Trump's diminished leverage extends beyond Washington, affecting his dealings with Russia, Ukraine and Iran. The preceding conversation with Bill Kristol examines Trump's election-fraud rhetoric, his offer to negotiate on immigration and Stephen Miller's elevation, framing those moves as attempts to regain control after defeat.

The video episode on this page features Michael Steele, the former Republican National Committee chair. His conversation with Miller combines celebration of Democratic gains with frustration at Republicans trying to distance themselves from Trump after supporting him.

There is electoral mechanics beneath the venting. Miller explains how the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact would award participating states' electoral votes to the nationwide popular-vote winner once its activation threshold is reached. Steele considers how that would change campaigning, before the pair turn to the organizing Texas Democrats would need to sustain their gains. The episode also includes paid advertising breaks.
