Sorry, The 25th Amendment Can't Save Us From Trump (w/ Andrew Weissmann)

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.thebulwark.com

Sarah Longwell and Andrew Weissmann explain the legality of Trump’s unhinged Iran threats, the legal reality behind “war crimes” warnings, and the global fallout of a strategy with no clear objective. They also discuss Trump’s push to control elections, why it’s likely unconstitutional—and why losing in court may actually be part of the plan. Plus, the Steve Bannon case and what it says about a system where accountability depends on loyalty to the president.
