West Michigan Week

Intellectuals and President Trump

Season 37 Episode 7 | 26m 47sVideo has Closed Captions

We discuss the rise of Trumpism, and the support from conservative intellectuals.

After his primary victory in Nevada, then candidate Donald Trump declared, “I love the poorly educated!” It was yet another step toward the presidency that pollsters and pundits predicted was unlikely. Yet President Donald Trump’s populist approach worked with a focus on disrupting the way the federal government does business. We will discuss the rise of Trumpism.
