14:42Now PlayingTrump's reshaping of the federal judiciary and the US Supreme Court is all because of the shadowy Leonard Leo and his Federalist Society and billions of dollars of donated money. But now on an epic losing streak in court, and with non-MAGA republicans arrayed against his controversial pick of his criminal lawyer henchman Emil Bove to be a Third Circuit Court of Appeals Judge, Trump is not just biting the hand that feeds him, but amputating it, making Republicans take sides as he calls Leo a "sleazebag" and unpatriotic, fighting words in Trump circles. Popok ties it together and explains its impact on the midterm election as Republicans peal away from Trump and his "friendly fire."
