Donald Trump’s private thoughts on Covid from April 13 are a bit of a contrast from his public statment on April 17.
Then Sam is joined by historian Thomas Frank to discuss his new book, “The People, No: A Brief History of Anti-Populism.” What is the American history of populism? Is it an attitude, a policy set, a campaign style?
