I joined CNN’s George Howell on Sunday morning to explain how and why Donald Trump lost with his Trump Shutdown of the Federal Government — and why, in combination with the Trump-Russia investigation, his troubles are likely to increase.

Are Republicans now joining Democrats to contain Trump, preventing further economic and social damage?

Even #Trump’s base had to face a choice: Make America Great Again or the recognition that the Trump Shutdown wasn’t making America great.
