Episode 33 - Eliminating norms - Trump Picks Under Pressure from Allegations.

On this episode of Ford News, Johnathan and Brian dive into what will happen with Donald Trump's legal cases as he is less than two months away from being back in the White House. Could he be sentenced in his New York case?

In segment two, we dive into the fiasco of Matt Gaetz being nominated for Attorney General. Now that he has withdrawn his name, we talk about what will happen to the House ethics report on him and what his future is. Could he fail forward?

And this week's "Ford Fact Check" is all about Donald Trump having no qualms about whether he respects administration norms or not. Hint....He doesn't. Can he be punished for not doing what other presidents have done as they prepare to enter the White House? We don't think so.
