What just happened to American politics in the last 72 hours? On this wild episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara sits down with legendary satirist Andy Borowitz (The Borowitz Report) to unpack the absolute circus: Marjorie Taylor Greene abruptly resigning from Congress facing a Trump-backed primary challenge, Trump and progressive firebrand Zohran Mamdani bizarrely hitting it off in the Oval Office like old friends, the GOP majority getting razor-thin, discharge petitions coming back in a big way, the crumbling economy fueling every rebellion, and why Trump’s coalition is fracturing faster than anyone predicted. They also dive into who might fill the MAGA chaos queen void (Anna Paulina Luna, anyone?), Trump’s phantom “peace” deals, DOGE already imploding, and whether we’re all just living in a very expensive simulation. Who should be the next unhinged star of the GOP clown car now that MTG is heading home?
