Description

James and Al hype Trump’s falling approval ratings, explain why even die-hard Republicans are starting to abandon him, and call out MAGA’s war on higher education, before giving us some good news about why there might be reasons for hope and change.  Then, they welcome architectural expert Paul Goldberger to discuss Trump’s war on our nation’s heritage as represented by our historical structures, and lay out why these buildings are so crucial to our sense of self and trust in our institutions.  They also dive into why our public buildings represent our democracy, and why their preservation is so important to our ideals and future..
