Edward Stourton and Guests talk to Bronwen Maddox

America 250: We Need to Talk About Trump

 – Global Stage
Armed ICE agents on America’s streets, an apparent contempt for the rule of law – just how far has President Trump strayed from the principles enshrined in the Declaration of Independence? 250 years ago, it promised equality and freedom for all and put these rights under the government’s protection. Broadcaster and author of Made in America Edward Stourton argues many of Trump’s policies are deeply rooted in American history. He and other guests talk to Bronwen Maddox, director of think tank Chatham House, about how the US got here and what we do about it.
