'Open revolt': Republicans just can't with Trump's ABSURD pick for DNI
About this episode
Jen Psaki discusses the backlash from Republicans regarding Trump's appointment of Bill Pulte as Director of National Intelligence with Senator Adam Schiff.
While it is not unusual for Donald Trump to appoint completely unqualified people to important jobs in his administration, his choice of Bill Pulte, a Mar-a-Lago suck-up who Trump had already gifted the position of director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, to be the new Director of National Intelligence is too far for many Republicans who are already dealing with the burden of association with Trump's unpopularity. Senator Adam Schiff, a former member of the House Intelligence Committee, discusses with Jen Psaki.
