IMPORTANT - Trump's Worst Nightmare | Rick Wilson

About this episode

Rick Wilson — co-founder of The Lincoln Project and one of Donald Trump’s fiercest critics — joins us to explain how the MAGA movement captured the GOP, what really gets under Trump’s skin, and why the Epstein files could roil the 2026 midterms. We also dig into messaging, culture vs. policy, and concrete ways voters can defend democracy.
