What Makes House Republicans Turn Traitor?

Now, he’s quitting his House seat, and doing it in a way calculated to maximize the odds Democrats can flip the House. What’s going on? Cowardice, spite, or something darker? Charlie and Kurt Schlichter try to figure it out. Plus, Trump legal team member Will Scharf lays out Trump’s legal strategy against New York’s unprecedented lawfare.
