Trump Photobombs Spain's World Cup Celebrations - Because OF COURSE He Did

John talks about Trump attended the World Cup Final in New Jersey, presenting the trophy to the champions and inserting himself repeatedly into all of their celebrations. They, of course, photoshopped him out of most of the pics. Joining him is political strategist Tim Fullerton, who discusses the ongoing Senate race in Maine and the need for Democrats to respect the voices of local voters. They explore the challenges facing Susan Collins and the grassroots energy behind candidate Troy Jackson. Next, he welcomes political influencer Brian Tyler Cohen, who discusses his new book, "The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World." Brian emphasizes the importance of Democrats not just winning elections but effectively governing and delivering on promises. They explore the necessity of embracing economic populism and the challenges faced by the Democratic Party in a landscape dominated by fear and misinformation. Then finally, John chats with constitutional scholar Professor Corey Brettschneider, who shares insights on the implications of Trump’s recent speeches and actions, the importance of local control in elections, and the ongoing threats to democratic norms. They delve into the complexities of the Supreme Court's role in current politics, the potential for court reform, and the ethical concerns surrounding Trump's financial dealings.
