Trump’s back-to-back-to-back setbacks

from The Aaron Rupar Show · host Aaron Rupar and David Nir

On the latest episode of Nir & Rupar, our live weekly video show, David Nir of The Downballot and Aaron Rupar of Public Notice catalog an extraordinary series of setbacks for Donald Trump in just the last few days. If you haven’t yet subscribed to The Downballot, which provides unparalleled coverage of the thousands of critical elections below the presidency, sign up below: David and Aaron discuss: * Trump’s disastrous national address on the Iran war, which stood out as particularly atrocious even by his debased standards. * Trump’s humiliating morning taking in oral argument at the Supreme Court, where even arch-conservative justices openly signaled their hostility to ending birthright citizenship. * Who’s next after Trump’s firing of Pam Bondi? * Why the pending TSA funding deal is such a humiliating climbdown for the GOP. And much more. Folks who are paid subscribers to either of our publications can participate in our Q&A! Nir & Rupar goes live every Friday at 2 PM ET.
