1:08Now PlayingPaul Rieckhoff unpacks Donald Trump’s endorsement of YouTuber Jake Paul for political office, explaining why Jake Paul is a “radioactive” villain to many, how Trump’s deep understanding of celebrity makes this move perfectly on brand, and why it opens the door for more thoughtful celebrities like Stephen Colbert or others to run, reminding viewers that Trump, Reagan, Schwarzenegger, Al Franken, and Zelensky all began as entertainers before becoming political leaders. #Trump
