Putin's Apprentice: Trump Follows Authoritarian Playbook
1Description
Jen Psaki explains why what's happening in Vladimir Putin’s Russia is a preview of what Trump’s America would look like in a second term. House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi joins to reflect on the death of Putin-critic Alexei Navalny and why passing a Ukraine aid bill is crucial to protecting democracy across the world. Next, Jen is joined by attorney Shawn Reynolds to break down Trump’s precarious financial situation as the clock ticks for him on the half-a-billion dollars he owes in civil penalties. Reynolds also reacts to Trump’s recent comments regarding her client E. Jean Carroll as he continues to reference her at his rallies. Jen explains how Trump’s ongoing attacks on mail-in voting – kneecapping the GOP’s early vote efforts – is indicative of a larger problem within the Republican party. Finally, Joy Reid joins the show to chat with Jen about her new book "Medgar and Myrlie” and the lessons in activism that apply today.
