45:45Now PlayingDonald Trump’s second presidency isn’t just chaotic — it’s exposing the real consequences of decisions many voters didn’t fully understand.
In this episode of First Draft, Susan Demas sits down with Wonkette editor Rebecca Schoenkopf to break down a barrage of surreal and serious developments: escalating tensions with Iran, attacks on comedians like Jimmy Kimmel, and a growing sense that the system is no longer functioning normally.
They explore how Trump’s appeal to younger voters in 2024 is now unraveling, why some supporters are experiencing immediate regret, and how policies like mass deportation and economic pressure are hitting closer to home than expected. The conversation also digs into the media’s failures, the erosion of institutional checks, and why humor has become both a coping mechanism and a target.
This is not just about politics — it’s about what happens when reality catches up to rhetoric.
