Summary

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles unpack another extraordinary week inside Donald Trump's presidency, from a major Supreme Court victory that could dramatically expand presidential power to the increasingly blurred line between church and state, the political fallout from the fragile Iran ceasefire, and why Trump may once again escape the consequences of a foreign policy setback. They also dig into the mystery surrounding Natalie Harp, Trump's fiercely devoted "human printer," as new reporting catches up with revelations first explored by Wolff, examine why the New York Times is only now embracing the idea that Trump governs through obsession rather than strategy, debate Trump's latest fixation with the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool, and reveal the strange political calculations behind JD Vance's Nixon comparisons.
