Ep. 25 | Matt Gaetz as AG and RFK Jr. at HHS? Let the Confirmation Chaos Begin

Rivera and Reeves

In this episode of Campaign Games, Meseidy and Rachel unpack the drama surrounding Trump’s unconventional cabinet picks, from Matt Gaetz as Attorney General to RFK Jr. at HHS and Tulsi Gabbard at DNI. They dive into the media's meltdown, the political fallout, and what these choices reveal about Trump’s strategy.

With sharp insights and a dash of humor, they explore the stakes of confirmation hearings, potential recess appointments, and why this process feels more like reality TV than politics.

Tune in for the latest twists in the game of survival for candidates and voters alike!
