In this week's History and Politics Chat, I answer the following questions: 1. What’s going on with the Wisconsin election? 2. Is voter disenfranchisement new to American history? 3. Why are Trump’s press conferences unhinged, and why does the press cover them the way that they do? 4. How can Kushner do what he’s doing? 5. Have we ever seen anything like the moment we’re living through now? Want more History & Politics Chat?
