Lawrence: Trump knows he's losing his 'slush fund' and his ballroom - The Last Word - MS NOW



MS NOW’s Lawrence O’Donnell describes how Donald Trump knows the Republican-controlled Senate “now has the momentum to defeat his slush fund and to defeat his ballroom” as more Senate Republicans speak out against what some call a "payout pot for punks" that is “utterly stupid, morally wrong.” - Aired on 05/21/2026.

When he speaks, it is from the experience of knowing how it is supposed to work. Generally
THE DIPSHIT says this and then sometime later without a lot of fanfare the courts say "NOT

line!
