Why has Trump's cruel mockery of Rob Reiner's tragic murder by his own son exposed deepening cracks in the MAGA coalition?
On this unflinching episode of the Tara Palmeri Show—a special collaboration with the I've Had It Podcast—fearless podcaster and Bravo alum Jennifer Welch joins to dissect Trump's grotesque Truth Social post blaming "Trump Derangement Syndrome" for the deaths of Rob Reiner and his wife—sparking rare Republican backlash from figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Don Bacon. They explore the overlooked story of addiction behind the tragedy, the explosive feud between Candace Owens and Erika Kirk threatening to unravel conservative media empires, the rising war on women led by Republican figures pushing traditional roles while embodying hypocrisy, and the rot inside the Democratic Party as leaders grapple with power, social media, and rebuilding trust.
How long can MAGA loyalists defend the indefensible before the movement fully fractures?
