The For-Profit Presidency
Description
As concerns mount over presidential profiteering, Jon is joined by Susan Glasser, New Yorker staff writer and co-author of "The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017-2021," and Eric Lipton, investigative reporter for The New York Times. Together, they explore the scope of Trump’s business entanglements, discuss the challenges of covering these ethical breaches, and examine the legal and historical precedents that laid the groundwork for Trump’s unprecedented abuses of power.

Now that the Hur takes have been released and we heard proof positive that Joe Biden not know what year his son was deployed, what year his son died, what year President Trump won, what year the disastrous Afghanistan retreat was, endless incoherent ramblings of an "elderly man with a poor memory" etc. - it begs the question: who really was in charge from 2020 to 2024 and what were the national security implications of essentially having no sitting president, rather only a figurehead?
