We've made it to Casual Friday folks, so loosen that collar and tune in. First up, Trump is continuing to melt down after being confronted with the acronym T.A.C.O. (Trump Always Chickens Out) and insists that he's a big strong man who is doing the best trade negotiations the world has ever seen. Meanwhile, Commerce Secretary Scott Bessent admits that talks with China have stalled and that he's not really sure when they might restart. Then David Dayen from the American Prospect joins us to talk about Trump's failures and what they mean for trade and the global economy. Check out his work on the golden age of scams: https://prospect.org/power/2025-05-27-golden-age-of-scams/ And check out David's other pieces and podcasts at The American Prospect here: https://prospect.org/ In the Fun Half, Karoline Leavitt has a real wackadoodle justification for the legality of Trump's tariffs. A hero on Martha's Vinyard has been following around ICE agents with a camera, hounding them with questions and justified hectoring. Zohran Mamdani has some positive polling numbers with less than a month left to go before the New York mayoral primary. And Charlie Kirk embarrasses himself at a at a Cambridge University debate about feminism. Also: The Bitchuation Room is doing a live podcast TONIGHT in Los Angeles.
