Trump, China & the New Art of the Deal

May 13, 2025

In this episode of Cut the Mic, Mike Hoeflich and Mike Sperrazza sound off on the headlines the media won’t touch. From Trump’s pharmaceutical tariffs and China trade wins to the 40-time offender who murdered a college student, the Mikes rip into America’s broken justice system and the two-tiered standards plaguing our politics. Plus, they mock Chuck Todd’s Biden regrets, torch Kamala Harris’s latest word salad, and ask why common sense is so rare in Washington. It’s sharp, it’s bold, and it’s classic Cut the Mic.
