The Trump Mystique Is Wearing Thin

On this episode of The Briefing Room, we examine why the Trump mystique may be wearing thin with the American public. From the backlash over the failed $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund, to growing scrutiny over Trump’s massive stock trading activity in companies affected by his own administration’s policies, this episode asks whether the image of untouchable strength is starting to collapse under the weight of too many self-serving controversies. Then in Barbershop Court, we put three of the biggest questions on trial, and close with a C’Mon Man! segment on the White House UFC spectacle and what it says about power, image, and political excess.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-briefing-room--5656912/support.
