Then, a DOJ deal that appears to exempt Trump, his family and his businesses from any future IRS audits sparks bipartisan outrage. Plus, new analysis reveals Trump's astonishing stock trades, including shares of companies that the administration met with and promoted. Larry Sabato, Jeff Mason, Miles Taylor, John Harwood and Bill Cohan join The 11th Hour.
