Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles examine Donald Trump’s stunning midterm humiliation and why, instead of changing course, he’s doubling down on the very forces that helped bring him down. With Susie Wiles out and Stephen Miller elevated to chief of staff, Trump is signaling an even more extreme White House, and Wolff reveals the explosive behind-the-scenes drama that led to the shake-up. Plus, Tucker Carlson’s increasingly bitter break with Trump, JD Vance’s increasingly precarious political future, and whether Ron DeSantis is positioning himself for 2028. Then, Melania Trump’s bizarre new documentary trailer raises a fresh round of uncomfortable questions as Wolff fights back against her legal threats. And as Silicon Valley billionaires and powerful law firms scramble to distance themselves from Trump, the question is whether the political landscape has shifted more dramatically than anyone in his inner circle is prepared to admit.
