98. Trump, Epstein, and The List That Won’t Die

In this episode of "The Rest Is Politics US," Katty Kay and Anthony Scaramucci analyze current political events, beginning with the MAGA movement's reaction to the Jeffrey Epstein files and Donald Trump's handling of the situation. They discuss the schism within MAGA, the role of conspiracy theories, and the Democrats' response. The second half shifts to Ukraine, examining Donald Trump's evolving stance on Vladimir Putin and the implications for American foreign policy. They explore potential motivations behind Trump's actions, including the influence of the Senate and personal humiliation, and debate whether Trump is genuinely scared of Putin. The discussion also touches on the broader geopolitical implications and the potential for a stalemated conflict.
