Summary
This episode is a reading of Chapter 1.5 - Post-Election: President Trump Replaces His Campaign Team.
This is the Select Committee's summary about the release of his campaign team that referred to itself as "team normal." In their place, Trump promoted Rudy Giuliani and several investigators and lawyers to assist him.
