During a recent episode of the More To The Story podcast, Senator Adam Schiff reflected on his history of confronting Donald Trump, recalling how the president’s online attacks have made him a frequent target. He explained that, as the lead prosecutor in the first Trump impeachment trial, he now believes Democrats must repeatedly tie the president’s alleged self-enrichment to tangible harms for ordinary Americans. Schiff emphasized that the real cost of such corruption is a leader who fails to deliver on promises.
He also discussed how the Israeli government has pressed long-standing supporters, including himself, to criticize its policies more openly. Host Al Letson guided the dialogue toward Schiff’s proposals for strengthening America’s institutional guardrails in a post-Trump landscape. The senator’s remarks combine personal experience, strategic political advice, and foreign-policy considerations as he outlines a roadmap for the Democratic agenda.
