This week on Look Forward, it’s the first ever Jay-less episode as Brad and Andy wade through the quagmire of new from this week past. We discuss lonely Paul Manafort, a new scandal enveloping Rep. Jim Jordan, speculate on Trump’s likely Supreme Court pick, revel in the (probably forced) departure of Scott Pruitt, the beginning of the US-China Trade War, why meeting one-on-one with foreign dictators smarter than him isn’t a great move for Trump, and much more!
