Nicolle Wallace: The Silence of Republicans Is the Bigger Threat

Nicolle Wallace: The Silence of Republicans Is the Bigger Threat

While Trump and his administration are the ones politicizing the rule of the law, ignoring due process, and annihilating democratic norms, it's Republicans leaders saying and doing nothing in response that poses a bigger threat to our country and democracy.

Plus, when Bush 43, McCain, and Jeb pushed for immigration reform, the romantic idealism of Aaron Sorkin, and the sounds of kids and dogs.

(An unfiltered) Nicolle Wallace joins Tim Miller.
