Tucker Carlson calls for Trump's removal, Vance allies expose plot, GOP cornered on McConnell

Here are some of the week's biggest political stories from NJ.com.

Tucker Carlson broke sharply with Trump this week, calling for him to be immediately removed from office. The fracture runs deeper than one commentator, with allies of JD Vance going public over an alleged 2028 sabotage plot and asking whether their opponents think they are stupid. Republicans are also struggling to explain themselves elsewhere, as a Trump ally got cornered on Mitch McConnell's whereabouts and was told flatly that his answer was not believable. The pressure is showing up in the numbers too, with a shock poll revealing a stunning number of Gen Z Trump voters who now regret their 2024 vote. And fresh polling suggests Trump's midterm nightmare is shaping up to be even worse than expected, pointing toward historic losses.
