Instead? It looked more like a MAGA talent show after the headliners bailed. With A-list performers nowhere to be found, the event ended up featuring FBI Director Kash Patel's girlfriend singing the national anthem as Trump tried to sell the night as a triumph. We'll break down the awkward optics, the missing celebrities, and what it all says about Trump's political and cultural influence. Joining Don are Reecie Colbert and Clay Cane to unpack one very underwhelming opening night. This episode is brought to you by Shopify.
