Coach Matt Doherty On The Brett Winterble Show

The Brett Winterble Show

Tune in here to this Wednesday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!

We're joined by The Coach Matt Doherty to talk about leadership and whether America can truly be made great again. Drawing from his coaching experience, Coach Doherty uses sports analogies to frame political division as dysfunction within a team—arguing that when parts of a team pull in different directions, it’s hard to reach full potential. He suggests the left’s relentless opposition to Donald Trump has created a hostile environment, preventing national unity.

The conversation compares political strategy to basketball, highlighting how being on offense—like Trump’s assertive immigration policies—offers more control than defense. However, “referees” in the form of judges can interfere, blocking progress through rulings and legal obstacles. Coach Doherty emphasizes the importance of surrounding a leader with truth-tellers and capable advisors, and ultimately gives Trump high marks for his effort and focus.

Doherty shares insights into how Donald Trump assembled his team, emphasizing the importance of giving clear missions, empowering decision-makers, and conducting post-action debriefs—principles rooted in both sports and military practice. He contrasts strong leadership with weak organizational structures, noting how Trump's transparent cabinet meetings stood in stark contrast to Biden's delayed and less visible approach.
