Full disclosure...we're doing a little time travel here. Going back in time, when we didn't know the (probably predictable) Iowa Caucus results. So please enjoy Meghan talking with Puck's Tara Palmeri about where it all went wrong for Ron DeSantis. She also spoke with Salena Zito about the Vivek of it all. And finally, to leave us with a smile, Seena Ghaznavi pops in to make us feel better that at least the U.S. is better than living in Iran, as his mom always likes to remind him.
