Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with former Trump staffers warning the nation that the threat is real and democracy is at stake as we enter this presidential election year. Michael Fanone, one of the heroes of January 6th, joins Joy with more. Also, with two weeks to go before Iowa, Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley are still treating the front-runner Donald Trump gently, as if they do not really want to win. Plus, Joy talks to a man who was paid by the Trump campaign to find proof of widespread election fraud in 2020. He found none and told them so, he says, adding the allegation that they continued to push the Big Lie anyway. That man, Ken Block, joins The ReidOut. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
