Summary

This week on The Enemies List, Rick is joined by former Maryland Lieutenant Governor and RNC Chairman, Michael Steele. Together, they discuss what they describe as a tumultuous week for the Republican Party. Both former Republicans who have been vocal critics of the party's direction in recent years, they dissect the various political missteps and internal conflicts within the GOP. They touch on the leadership challenges faced by Mike Johnson, the party's stance on immigration, the GOP's approach to Ukraine, and the resignation of Ronna McDaniel as party chair. They also discuss the GOP's strategy (or lack thereof) on key issues like the border crisis, impeachment threats, and foreign policy.
