The Republican Party is a Cult Says Fmr. GOP Congressman Mickey Edwards | Amanpour and Company

Lifelong Republican and former congressman Mickey Edwards walked away from the GOP earlier this year, saying it had become less a party than a "cult." He speaks with Walter Isaacson about the persistent myth that the election was stolen -- and the question of whether the Republicans are fit these days to run a candidate for the highest office in America.

Originally aired on June 2, 2021.
