Summary

Dr Phil just might be one of the most influential doctors in America today, and though he hasn’t practised psychology since the early 2000s, everyone who encounters him knows they’re speaking to an educated man. Today however, Dr Phil is tentatively wading into a sticky political swamp after speaking at a Donald Trump rally. Many have assumed this to be a transparent endorsement of the former president, but Dr Phil says otherwise. Piers Morgan talks to the good doctor about why he gave the speech at Trump’s rally, why he hasn’t spoken at a Kamala Harris rally, and why he’s so concerned about the effects of social media on children.

Well, Dr. Phil is one of those who's taken that risk. Last year, he told Bill Marr, but he's always remained non-political because he sees idiocy on both sides of the aisle. And he's not a fan of either Biden or Trump. So what changed? Well, Dr. Phil is hosting live Election Day coverage on America Decides, 24, on his new cable network Merritt TV. And he joins me now.
