Episode notes
Trump Indictment
- Trump is the first former president to be criminally charged, facing charges in Manhattan next Tuesday.
- The charges relate to falsifying business records, specifically hush money paid to Stormy Daniels during the 2016 election.
Trump's Eligibility
- Despite the indictment, Trump can still run for president as the Constitution doesn't bar candidates under investigation.
- He'll likely leverage this situation to his advantage, portraying himself as a victim of a political witch hunt.
Disney vs. DeSantis
- Disney outmaneuvered DeSantis by stripping the Disney district board of its powers before DeSantis could take control.
- The new board, appointed by DeSantis, discovered their lack of authority upon assuming control.
