Esquire's Jack Holmes joins Cheddar to discuss Trump's communications strategy around the announcement. He thinks the president's approach proves he's still running The White House as though it were a reality TV show.

Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
