Trump Speaks, The Market Crashes
Published 6 years, 4 months ago
Description
Literally every time Donald Trump addresses the coronavirus bad things happen. The stock market craters. Lives are put at risk. Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman examine the last few days of chaos, including the nightmarish press conferences and Republicans profiting off the pandemic. Author and historian Sarah Churchwell stops by to talk about her essential book Behold, America: The Entangled History of 'American First' and 'The American Dream' and how authoritarian rule in America isn't so farfetched.
