Will Kate Baldwin expose the President?
Going against the President of the United States will cost a pretty penny. Just ask Ayla Sayyad. She tried throwing hardball questions at Frank Underwood and got her media pass revoked. All it took was one press conference. Kate Baldwin knows this and even though she’s been digging at Mr. Underwood, it hasn’t been as deep enough to make him squirm. She’s caught him off guard a few times, but it hasn’t been anything he didn’t dodge and duck from.
Her relationship with Thomas Yates might bring some ammo to expose The Underwood’s, but not enough to take the White House down. Yates doesn’t know enough. Plus, she’s tried derailing the President’s campaign once before and her opinion piece almost cost her career. It’s a good thing that hurricane didn’t strike, because it could have turned ugly for her.
If anything, Heather Dunbar has weakened the President more than Baldwin. Who knows, maybe she finds the smoking gun next season. Or gets it from Claire, Remy and/or Doug. They’re the only ones who could bring Frank Underwood to his knees.
