Summary

Chris Cuomo explains why Donald Trump’s greatest threat isn’t the radical left or his political opponents — it’s his own agenda. From tariffs and SNAP cuts to open corruption and tone-deaf optics like his privately funded “Arc de Trump,” Cuomo argues Trump’s way of “keeping promises” is destroying the very movement that built him. Cuomo shows how Trump’s policies are punishing the same working-class voters who powered his rise, turning MAGA into a movement divided against itself. He also looks at how Democrats could seize the moment by offering real fixes — not just outrage — and how the coming battles over affordability, healthcare, and corruption could reshape both parties before the 2026 midterms.

0:49.2	MAGA now has an equal opposite, which is actually bigger in terms of people and energy than MAGA ever was, called MEGA, in my opinion.

1:15.0	is doing you harm. Your opposition isn't what's doing you harm. Your opposition is your competition.
