On this episode of "On Balance," Leland Vittert questions how President Trump can win the Memorial Day conversation. With approval continuing to drop, Trump needs a comeback. To do that, among other things, he will need to tackle a divided administration, a crumbling Cabinet, get through the midterms and secure the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, NATO and the U.S. are at odds. Secretary of State Rubio is in Sweden to try to salvage the relationship, attempting to find common ground and restore the values once shared. Retired Gen.

Also, Spencer Pratt is becoming a bigger threat to incumbent L.A. Mayor Karen Bass. The Los Angeles mayoral race is tightening, as Pratt promises to address many of the problems ignored by Bass. Jennifer Horn, host of “The Morning Answer” on Salem Radio in L.A. joins former Democratic California U.S. Senate candidate and political strategist Christina Pascucci to dissect California’s challenges. Plus, is Cuba going to be any different from Iran? Trump may be starting another conflict with one already underway. Host of “The Manny Munoz Show” Manny Munoz analyzes.
