The End Of The MAHA MAGA Coalition w/ Sam Seder Fast Politics w/ Molly Jong-Fast



Apr 24, 2026
The Majority Report's Sam Seder joins Molly for a wide-ranging conversation about the unraveling of Donald Trump’s second term, arguing that collapsing approval numbers, mounting corruption allegations, and growing fractures within the right—from figures like Alex Jones and Tucker Carlson to disillusioned “low information” 2024 voters—are creating real political danger, especially if Democrats retake the Senate and unleash investigations. They dig into RFK Jr. and the “MAHA” coalition, tracing how wellness culture and conspiratorial anti-corporate instincts merged during the trauma of COVID, and why Kennedy’s capitulation to Trump now looks like a betrayal to his own one-issue followers. The discussion also turns to Democratic missteps in 2024, critiquing Kamala Harris’s consultant-driven, donor-sensitive approach, the decision to validate Trump’s “outsider” branding, the shutdown of effective populist messaging, and the campaign’s discomfort with issues like antitrust and Gaza that may have depressed turnout in key swing states.
