The MAGA movement, which swept Donald Trump back into the White House in 2024, is now facing what Piers Morgan calls an existential crisis. The former president has seen his approval ratings plummet to 36% among all registered voters — the lowest recorded since the Financial Times began asking. Morgan frames the problem bluntly: Trump has conducted "the most unpopular war in American history" against Iran, gas prices have spiked 33%, inflation sits at 3.4%, and the Epstein scandal remains unresolved despite campaign promises. The question at the center of this episode is whether the MAGA coalition is genuinely collapsing or merely experiencing internal turbulence that won't matter at the ballot box.

Show Notes
Labor Day weekend is usually a slow news week, but in the world of US politics, things have gone off the rails. From a frenetic debate over whether the President has gone brunette to Trump’s latest meme campaign - rebranding New Mexico as “New America” and the White House sharing an AI-generated video of Trump as the ‘Green Lantern’ - the digital landscape has never been weirder.
But the real action is in the trenches of the meme war. Piers Morgan breaks down the rise and sudden evolution of ‘The Magatard’ - a creature created to mock the MAGA movement, only to be reclaimed by Trump’s base - and more with Dave Smith, Ben Ferguson, Joanne Carducci and Will Chamberlain.
