Thank you God, Cat: Poli-Psych, LeftieProf, Susan DRENNAN GABRIEL, Grace Alexandra Hayden, and many others for tuning into “Oh Schmidt! It’s Friday” with Jim Acosta. David Pakman also joined Jim to talk about his new book “Pay Attention.”
For those who missed it, here’s what we covered:
Donald Trump has surrounded himself with sycophants, fabulists and people willing to tell him exactly what he wants to hear. We take a hard look at the increasingly strange world inside Trump’s orbit, including the extraordinary story of Natalie Harp and what it reveals about the people who have access to the president of the United States.
We also talk about Michael Cohen’s astonishing journey back toward Trump, and then turn to something much bigger: Jon Ossoff and the emergence of a new generation of Democratic leadership. Ossoff is showing what political courage looks like at a time when too many others have chosen caution, calculation and retreat.
America is entering an extraordinarily consequential stretch. Trump looks weaker. The opposition is beginning to find its voice. And the political landscape may be changing faster than Washington understands.
If you missed it, hope you’ll tune in.
