They also look at the growing tension around Markwayne Mullin, Trump’s fury when people in his administration appear to stray from his message, and why Anthony Fauci has become such a powerful target for MAGA despite Trump’s own history with him. From Trump’s refusal to let go of birthright citizenship to the carefully staged confirmation fight over Todd Blanche, Michael and Joanna explore the obsessions, grudges and political theater driving the administration. And in a revealing look at Trump’s relationship with Melania, they consider what happens when the woman who once embodied his public image begins to build a life increasingly separate from him.
