My second guest will be Trip Yang, a rising star in the political consulting world.

Trip and I will talk about New York politics after the Cuomo scandal explosion. Will Andrew resign or run again? Who will be lining up to run for Governor, Attorney General, Comptroller, and what effects will all of this have on the shape of New York's Democratic Party, which Cuomo controls with an iron fist.
