18:12Now PlayingJim Acosta & Molly Jong-Fast discuss how Republican senators like John Cornyn and Bernie Moreno are seen as bowing to Donald Trump instead of confronting him, even when faced with serious allegations involving Max Miller, whose conduct is described as abusive and disturbing; the speakers argue that Trump still controls the party because Republicans have given up their own power and moral backbone. They also broaden the critique to say Trump’s influence has created a party of cowardice and delay, especially when it comes to protecting his allies or punishing misconduct, while simultaneously suggesting he is in deep cognitive decline and increasingly disconnected from reality. The conversation ends by portraying Trump as incapable of handling major challenges, from war to governing, and as someone whose political strength masks a larger national crisis that Republicans refuse to address.
