The Trump Files: Fat Ankles & Epstein | The Joy Reid Show, Jul 18, 2025 Episode

On this episode of The Joy Reid Show, we discuss Trump's swollen ankles and surprise medical reveal, his crashout over the Wall Street Journal's Epstein birthday doodle bombshell, and the shock cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and what sure looks like bribey behavior by yet another legacy media company. Our guests: law professor and former federal prosecutor Paul Butler, Trump biographer and best-selling author David Cay Johnston, and Mini Timmaraju, president and CEO of Reproductive Freedom for All (formerly NARAL Pro-Choice America).
