This Is How Trump Will Destroy His Own Goons

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles break down why the political winds may finally be shifting against Donald Trump, and what Michael believes is the single psychological factor that could determine whether his presidency survives the coming midterms. They examine the fallout from Trump's strikes on Iran, the political gamble of rising gas prices, the increasingly competitive Senate map in Texas and Maine, and why Republicans could suddenly find themselves defending territory they once took for granted. Along the way, they explore the Democratic Party's uncertain strategy, Elon Musk's lingering political influence, and whether Trump has any path back if Republicans suffer the kind of losses Wolff predicts, before closing with a revealing look inside how Trump is likely to react if the election becomes the biggest setback of his political career.

Melania Is Unleashing Revenge Dogs on Me: Wolff

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles pull back the curtain on the hidden power brokers shaping Donald Trump’s presidency, revealing why one little-known lawyer may now wield more influence over Trump’s legal strategy than anyone else.

They also unpack Trump’s staggering $2.2 billion windfall, Melania’s multimillion-dollar earnings, the Supreme Court’s latest decisions, the growing fight inside the Democratic Party ahead of the midterms, and why Trump’s off-the-cuff foreign policy comments continue to reshape global headlines despite, as Wolff argues, having little grounding in reality.  Visit https://ffrf.us/TRUMP or text TRUMP to 511511 to learn more and join the Freedom From Religion Foundation. #ad  Learn more about your ad choices.

I Know What Trump's D.C. Makeover Is Really About

Katy Tur returns to the Daily Beast Podcast for a candid conversation with Joanna Coles about whether Donald Trump is becoming more isolated, more erratic, and increasingly disconnected from the voters who put him back in the White House. Drawing on over a decade of covering Trump up close, Tur explains why she believes Republicans are growing frustrated behind closed doors, what his behavior could mean for the midterms, and why his continued fixation on the 2020 election reveals more than just political strategy. They also dig into the staggering financial empire Trump has built while in office, the unprecedented questions surrounding crypto and presidential power, and the dramatic transformation of the White House itself, which Tur argues reflects a deeper shift in how Trump sees America.
