Court Jesters: Trump Pits Allies Against Each Other
Guest host Michael Steele outlines the ways in which Donald Trump sees himself as a king, and what it means for the country. He is joined by incoming MSNBC Senior Washington Correspondent Eugene Daniels and Former Representative Joe Walsh to discuss the clashes between un-elected co-president Elon Musk and Trump's top officials. Next, Michael is joined by Former Air Force Intelligence Officer Denver Riggleman and Retired USMC Lt.

Then, Michael is joined by former Social Security Administration Commissioner Martin O'Malley to discuss his concerns about DOGE's meddling in social security, which may put payments at risk. Later, Michael breaks down the recent MAGA vitriol directed at conservative Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett for simply looking at the president the wrong way.
