‘Brazen corruption’: Heather Cox Richardson HUMILIATES Trump but sees a ‘VIBE SHIFT’ away from MAGA

Published

on



Heather Cox Richardson identifies a change in American politics. And it’s coming from the people.  If historian Heather Cox Richardson ever had an agenda, it’d be protecting democracy. The history professor and author of the “Letters from an American” Substack joins Nicolle this week to consider the knock-on effects of economic pain at the grocery store and unpredictability at the podium on voter’s perception of Trumpism. She reflects on violence from ICE officers in her home state of Maine, the whiplash messaging in the war with Iran and concerns about the cyclosporiasis outbreak — which she sees as emblematic of places “where the federal government used to protect American families and are no longer.” Throughout, Richardson seamlessly adds historical context to our modern-day political struggles. She draws parallels between the moment that we’re in and the rise of the Republican party in the 1850’s, noting that — similar to the way Democratic leaders are responding to the public’s evolving concerns — “the people invented Lincoln.” And she makes it clear that we may already have the clarity we need: “What Americans are really doing in this moment is recovering their agency,” she says. “That’s a vibe shift.”

Former first lady Jill Biden tells Willie Geist she believes her husband could have beaten President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election had he stayed in the race. In her new book “View from the East Wing,” Biden shares that she was scared for her husband’s health after his final debate performance in 2024. “Let’s face it, Joe knew that this was not a good performance,” Biden told Morning Joe. But, she says, doctors cleared her husband after the event and he went on to three others, appearing “like he always was.”
