Off the Cupp with S.E. Cupp

On today's Talkin' Politics ... where to begin. How about Trump's proposal that we nationalize elections?! This, of course, is despite the Constitution's insistence they be decentralized. But when has the Constitution ever stopped Trump from dreaming big. S.E. unpacks the dangers of this, the very real preparations some states are taking in the event of a 'federal intervention' in our midterm elections, and more. She's joined by CNN legal analyst Elie Honig who weighs in on the threat to the midterms and several other big stories, including Epstein. He also brings a fantastic Clinton story. Stay tuned!

One of the thrills of having this podcast is that S.E. gets to sit down for a luxurious amount of time with her friends. And this episode is a special one for that reason. S.E. brings on her friend and fellow journalist Alisyn Camerota. They talk about Alisyn's nostalgia for the 'unpainted' punk 80s, why she was an "impatient and problematic employee" in her early days, their shared experiences at Fox News and carving out a life and a career in an unstable industry. They also dig into family life, relationships, and grief, which is still fresh for Alisyn who lost her husband to cancer in 2024. It's an emotional conversation but a fun one, too. Alisyn Camerota is an award-winning journalist and author of Combat Love. Find out more about her retreat here.

On this episode of Talkin' Politics, S.E. talks shifting vibes and rhetoric around the ICE presence in Minneapolis, the continued verbal hypocrisies of the Trump administration and the tension between an inner circle that doesn't really want to change tactics and Republican lawmakers who can see the writing on the wall for 2026. Speaking of which, S.E. gives her hot, hot take on the midterms and brings on journalist and friend, Jamal Simmons to help suss out 2028 (yes) and the Democratic contenders. Get more of Jamal at his Kill the Spider Substack and Trailblazer, his 2028 presidential campaign podcast.

If you are a Bravo fan, this is a very special episode for you (and S.E.). S.E. get's to dish with one of her favorite Bravolebrities, Heather Dubrow, from the Real Housewives of Orange County, Malibu Country, Hot in Cleveland, and so many more. And it's a very full conversation about anxiety, parenthood, the joy — and chaos — of reality TV and finding yourself despite the pressure of it all. If you're looking from some relief from the news, you're in the right place.

As Trump continues to saber-rattle through Davos, threatening to take Greenland, a sovereign Danish territory, S.E. wonders on today's Talkin' Politics, what do the Danes think of all this? At home, the Greenland grab seems to be popular with no one outside of Trump's inner circle. And Trump's increasingly unhinged, "mine, mine, mine" global political strategy is not only unsettling American markets, but potentially severing America from its longstanding allies. And for what? S.E gives you her hot take and talks to someone living through the other side of this — Danish journalist, Niels Overgaard.
