The Deal With The Devil Both Parties Keep Making

Graham Platner has suspended his Senate campaign following allegations of sexual assault that he continues to deny. Chris Cuomo argues that while Platner’s campaign may be over, the political lesson is just beginning. From Donald Trump to Graham Platner to Mitch McConnell, Chris explains why both parties repeatedly make what he calls “deals with the devil”—embracing flawed leaders because they believe they can deliver power. He breaks down why Republicans tied themselves to Trump, why Democrats embraced Platner despite repeated warning signs, and why populist movements often lose themselves by elevating personalities over principles. Chris also examines Trump’s attacks on NATO and Greenland, the ongoing Iran conflict, Dan Bongino and the Epstein controversy, Zohran Mamdani’s rise, the affordability crisis, and why economic justice—not culture war politics—will determine America’s political future.
