An act of self-harm: Trump’s latest war might be his undoing
A rash entry into a war of choice exposes President Donald Trump in a number of ways—and he may prove more dangerous as he becomes weaker.

And Americans seem to be taking their anger out on food-delivery robots.

- Rebecca Jackson, Southern correspondent
- Jason Palmer, co-host of “The Intelligence”
Topics covered:
