Are Gen-Z voters only motivated by their own interest? Steve Schmidt poses the question to Kaivan Shroff, the Press Secretary for Dream for America.

Steve Schmidt speaks with Kaivan Shroff, the press secretary for Gen-Z led non-profit Dream for America. They gave a key endorsement for President Biden in 2024... but Steve asks whether young voters can make the difference in the next election.

Former President Donald Trump was asked in a bizarre interview if he was uniquely protected by a higher power to fight against the court cases that "were made to destroy" him. Steve Schmidt says that the line of questioning was meant to grow Trump's religious fanatic voters.

One thing Donald Trump will do differently in the 2024 campaign is choose a woman to be his running mate. He knows that having a white Republican man won't help his political chances. Steve argues that his political foes Vivek Ramaswamy and Tim Scott won't be in the running - but his strongest primary opponent, Nikki Haley, will be. Steve ranks the likely contenders. *** To become a The Warning Premium Member and listen to the show 48 hours early with access to premium content visit: https://thewarning.supercast.com/ Subscribe for more and follow me here: Substack: https://steveschmidt.substack.com/subscribe Twitter: https://twitter.com/SteveSchmidtSES Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SteveSchmidtSES/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewarningses Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewarningses/

Chaos and anarchy have plagued Haiti for months now. As the situation continues to unravel, its citizens will look abroad to escape. Steve Schmidt explains how Haiti's unrest could further complicate America's immigration crisis. Steve also argues that the Biden Administration needs to address the issue because the U.S. is the only country who can do anything. "Haiti will be a threat to stability everywhere in the Western Hemisphere." ** To become a The Warning Premium Member and listen to the show 48 hours early with access to premium content visit: https://thewarning.supercast.com/ Subscribe for more and follow me here: Substack: https://steveschmidt.substack.com/subscribe Twitter: https://twitter.com/SteveSchmidtSES Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SteveSchmidtSES/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewarningses Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewarningses/

Steve Schmidt talks about the new reporting that Trump would praise the actions of Hitler. This is not the first time the former President has expressed affinity for tyrants and dictators. But what could that mean if he was elected to a second term in office? Steve says that we've already seen what happened when he lost an election and argues that the second term will be worse. "Tyrants rise when democracies weaken. in the 1930s, Fascism rose, not because it was strong, but because democracy was weak. And now, something is rising all over the world. The United States got a taste of it between 2016 and 2020. Next time, we'll get the full experience." *** To become a The Warning Premium Member and listen to the show 48 hours early with access to premium content visit: https://thewarning.supercast.com/ Subscribe for more and follow me here: Substack: https://steveschmidt.substack.com/subscribe Twitter: https://twitter.com/SteveSchmidtSES Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SteveSchmidtSES/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewarningses Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewarningses/

This week, South Carolina Republican Rep. Nancy Mace appeared in a fiery interview on ABC’s “This Week With George Stephanopoulos.” During the interview, Stephanopoulos asked Mace how she could square being a rape survivor with endorsing the former president who was found liable by a jury for sexual assault. This endorsement also comes after Rep. Mace said he should never hold office again for his role in the Capitol attack on January 6th. Steve Schmidt calls this hypocritical reversal a “moral rot” and representative of a larger movement in the Republican party.

Puck News reporter Tara Palmeri has covered Donald Trump & Washington politics for years. She sits down with Steve Schmidt and explains that the messaging we get from the White House and the campaign trail isn’t really what heavyweight politicos are secretly chatting about behind the scenes. She shares how conversations with the political VIPs really go down at chic D.C. restaurants like Cafe Milano. Plus, Tara and Steve talk about why Trump is more electable than people give him credit for, why Democrats are worried about the Biden campaign, and what it’s like to be at a Mar-a-Lago party (What is this tacky place?!) ** Subscribe for more and follow me here: Substack: https://steveschmidt.substack.com/subscribe Twitter: https://twitter.com/SteveSchmidtSES Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SteveSchmidtSES/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thewarningses Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewarningses/
