Listen "Party in the U.S.A.: How big is the GOP tent?"

Episode Synopsis

A battle is underway for the future of the Republican Party, just as former President Donald Trump’s Senate impeachment trial is about to begin.

This week, we take a closer look at two GOP congresswomen — the Trump-wary Liz Cheney and the conspiracy theory-spouting Marjorie Taylor Greene. The two politicians represent different directions for the Republican party in a post-Trump world, one where the internal divisions in the party seem increasingly difficult to reconcile within the GOP tent.

Elamin speaks with Alayna Treene, a White House reporter for Axios, and Matt Berman, politics editor for BuzzFeed.
