No, The Supreme Court Didn’t Make Trump Unilaterally More Powerful
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of recent Supreme Court decisions on presidential powers and political funding.
The Supreme Court finished its term with some pre-July 4th fireworks by issuing decisions that continue to shape the powers of the presidency. But how solid is this narrative out there that Trump benefits from a conservative-leaning court? The justices also loosened the leash for how much the parties can coordinate with and help fund congressional candidates. We look at what impact this could have for Republicans and Democrats, as well as the influence of big money in politics.
