'Mythification of Donald Trump is what the second term is about': Steele reacts to meme posts
Michael Steele, host of MS NOW's "The Weeknight," joined Peter Alexander to discuss Donald Trump's recent social media posts, which included memes about renaming New Mexico, owning the moon, and George Washington visiting him. Steele characterized these posts as part of Trump's "mythification process," suggesting it reflects his vision for a potential second term.
Steele argued that Trump's focus on memes over pressing issues like tariffs and gas prices alienates voters and poses a significant challenge for Republicans in upcoming elections, potentially leading to substantial losses.
The discussion also touched on Canada's retaliatory tariffs, rising gas prices, the potential for Democratic investigations if they take back Congress, and allegations of corruption against Corey Lewandowski.
