George Conway Explains It All (To Sarah Longwell)

George and Sarah dig into Donald Trump's legal circus—his sociopathic impulses, his warped view of presidential power, and his team's nonstop efforts to delay accountability. From a Ninth Circuit procedural win on National Guard deployment, to recycled immunity claims, to the latest twists in the E. Jean Carroll case, Conway and Longwell explain why Trump's ego—not the law—drives it all.

George Conway is joined by JVL, sitting in for Sarah Longwell, to break down the legal challenges to the federal use of the National Guard in California, how the administration is not following the laws as they are written, and how Newsom can continue to challenge the overreach.  Also, they discuss the confrontation involving Senator Padilla that even shocked Corey Lewandowski, and how Trump's silly birthday parade shows weakness.

George Conway and Sarah Longwell discuss Donald Trump's investigation into Joe Biden's presidency, Trump's new travel ban on 12 countries, and Trump's retaliation against Harvard and foreign exchange students. Also, another judge slams Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport without due process, and Trump's fight with Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society.
