They unpack Trump’s obsession with “winning,” the backlash building inside MAGA world, and why rising gas prices could quickly turn the political tide at home. Wolff argues the real key to understanding Trump may not be in the Pentagon or the intelligence briefings—but inside the mind of Jared Kushner, the one person he believes truly understands Trump’s thinking and the potential Gulf money and postwar deals at stake. They also dive into the uneasy body language of figures like Marco Rubio and JD Vance, the confusion among world leaders, and the political stakes back home—from the Texas Senate battle to a stunning Kristi Noem hearing that may have been the final straw for Trump to fire her as DHS Secretary. 00:00 - Trump’s War With No Clear Strategy 04:40 - Trump’s Dominance Theory of Power 09:20 - MAGA World Splits Over the Iran War 14:00 - “Everybody Loves a Winner”: Trump’s Core Belief 18:40 - Following the Money and Personal Advantage 23:20 - Jared Kushner and Gulf Money 28:00 - The Media Struggles to Explain Trump’s Strategy 32:40 - The Texas Senate Race and Democrats’ Path to Power 37:20 - Kristi Noem Fallout and GOP Political Cynicism 42:00 - Why the Press Still Doesn’t Understand Trump 46:40 - Trump, Stress, and the Strange Rash Debate #trump #news #politics 📖 Title: I Know Who's Really Influencing Trump's War: Wolff 👂 Podcast: Inside Trump's Head 📺 Episode: 82 🎧 Format: Full Podcast 📅 Date: March 5, 2026 🎙️ Hosts: Joanna Coles, Michael Wolff Click here to become an official member of the Daily Beast's YouTube community: https://youtube.com/@thedailybeast/join Have a question or comment for us?
