Brian talks to Ohio Republican Party Chair Alen Triantifillou 5/6/2026

In this episode of Brian Thomas's podcast, host Brian Thomas interviews Alen Triantifillou, the newly re-elected Chair of the Ohio Republican Party, following a decisive primary victory. Triantifillou expresses confidence in the party's momentum, citing strong turnout and an overwhelming win for Vivek Ramaswamy in the state’s primary. He emphasizes the importance of voter turnout as the central challenge for Republicans in the upcoming fall elections, framing the race as a battle to defend conservative principles against a perceived 'socialist' agenda. The conversation turns to concerns about Republican judicial vacancies in Hamilton County, where few candidates are stepping forward due to the perceived unwinnability of races in a blue-leaning area. Triantifillou argues that while the party cannot force people to run, there’s potential for crossover support from Democrats frustrated with liberal judicial policies. He also addresses national issues like gas prices and foreign policy, asserting that voters should not abandon their values over short-term economic pain. The discussion ends on a note of urgency, urging listeners to mobilize their networks and participate in the democratic process to 'defy history' and secure Republican victories in November.
