Alex Wagner: The Poster Child for Corruption and Grift

What's next? I mean, what's next? Like when you talk about Trump, President Trump, you have to now by law say the greatest president in American history. When you when you print the words President Trump, I mean, like sky's the limit, right? It's a fact.

Listen, from your mouth to Trump's ears, I do not think this is the end of this. If he can win at renaming large bodies of water... Just on a whim? What's to stop him from calling it the United States of Trump? I mean, I kid, but I do think this sets an unbelievably bad precedent.

I mean, I guess there's like a certain like, you know, Chekhovian, like there's like a very, Chris Hayes and I were talking about this yesterday. There's like a very Russian kind of like dark humor embedded in all of this, right? Like it's so absurd. The theater is so absurd, but it's real. I mean, like the consequences are real and as absurd as this all seems, um,

As a matter of satire and comedy, they're firing on all cylinders. We couldn't have conjured this nonsense, as you say, even nine years ago. They're very creative in that sense.

I don't know which to tackle first, Tim. The grift... Do you remember when it was like, oh, he might be building a Trump Tower in Abu Dhabi? Nobody even bothers to disguise it. And I do think, unlike Trump, people like the con man in Trump. I feel like that's why in some ways he was elected, because he cuts corners and does his own shit. People do not feel the same way about Elon Musk.

And Elon Musk standing there in the Oval Office with his child as a prop... And pretending that he's president and tinkering around in payroll systems and using his teen dream doge crew to gut the federal government, I do not think that that passes by without the American public understanding. without it ruffling their feathers. And I say that as someone who spent some time in D.C.
