Best-selling author and New Yorker satirist, Andy Borowitz, joins The Michael Steele Podcast to discuss his new book, "Profiles in Ignorance: How America's Politicians Got Dumb and Dumber." The pair discuss how the rise of TV and media has changed our politicians, what Americans prioritize over intellectual leaders and how ignorant leaders have evolved, from Reagan and Bush to Palin, DeSantis and Trump.
