NYT Reporter: “Dick Cheney’s Presidential Power Push Paved Way for Trump”

Season 2025 Episode 8031 | 18m 28s

Journalist Charlie Savage traces the blueprint for Donald Trump's power grab back to the late Dick Cheney in a recent NYT article, "How Cheney's Presidential Power Push Paved the Way for Trump to Go Further." Savage discusses the former VP's role in setting the stage for Trump — as well as Cheney's decision to support Kamala Harris in the 2025 election despite his solid Republican status.
