The Spin: Trump's PSA That Wasn't a PSA

The morning after Republicans lost the House and Senate in the midterms, the White House posted a photo of Trump with a message: "Still your president." Then came a Legend of Zelda remake with Trump in a hat saying the same thing.

On this episode of The Spin, Luke Duecy breaks down why asserting authority after a setback rarely projects the strength it's going for — and what a stronger move would have looked like.
