Show Notes
In the first year of his second term, President Trump has repeatedly said and done things that were previously assumed to be unacceptable to voters.
Whether on Greenland or Gaza, federal prosecutions or federal spending, immigration enforcement or sending the U.S. military to protests of immigration enforcement, the Trump administration appears undeterred on almost all of its agenda.
As Ashley Parker wrote in The Atlantic this week — the Trump administration has pushed the window of what’s possible in American politics so far that his opposition seems exhausted.
She discusses her essay, “Trump Exhaustion Syndrome.”
