Did Republicans Just Get Called Out—By a King?

Did Republicans Just Get Called Out—By a King?

Michael Smerconish dives into a remarkable moment in U.S.–U.K. relations as King Charles III delivers a speech to Congress that may have carried more than just ceremonial weight. CNN’s Stephen Collinson joins to unpack the “subtle but striking” message on democracy, executive power, and America’s global role—plus the political theater behind the royal visit and its impact on President Trump. Then, political analyst Mark Halperin breaks down the latest headlines: Trump’s legal strategy and “lawfare,” the real significance of the King’s visit, tensions over Ukraine and Iran, and media flashpoints from late-night comedy to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. It’s a wide-ranging conversation on power, politics, and perception in a week where symbolism and strategy collided. Original air date 29 April 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
