Former Trump official criticizes Cabinet picks over misconduct ties

Former Trump official Alyssa Farah Griffin criticized President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet picks, highlighting concerns over their ties to sexual misconduct.

Hosts expressed concern that the presence of individuals with misconduct allegations could undermine progress made in addressing such issues.
