Trump’s Plan to “Nationalize” Elections Amid DHS Funding & ICE Reform Debate

Funding for the Department of Homeland Security is still up for negotiation after the U.S. House approved a spending package bringing a partial government shutdown to an end Tuesday. The bill only funds DHS through February 13, as lawmakers negotiate changes to federal immigration enforcement in the wake of the deaths of U.S. citizens Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Also, President Trump wants to “nationalize” elections. What does this mean and is it Constitutional? University of Houston political science professors and co-hosts of “Party Politics” Brandon Rottinghaus and Jeronimo Cortina discuss these topics and more in this week’s political roundup.
