Will Dems Chuck Chuck?

As Democrats debate who’s best to lead Congress in the next session, Donald Trump installs his most loyal aide as chief of staff and tries to cope with his dramatic midterms losses. Jon and Dan discuss the arguments for and against Chuck Schumer becoming Majority Leader, how Trump will spend his final two years in office with an enabling Stephen Miller by his side, and whether JD Vance can chameleon into an anti-establishment politician in order to win the GOP nomination for president. They also cover Scott Colom’s win in Mississippi and the shocking scandal that toppled Trump friend and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who had an affair with an alleged Chinese spy, and the massive global ramifications that may follow.
