As everyone knows by now, Donald Trump is president of the United States again. And while there are obviously many Americans who welcome this news and see Trump as a victim, a hero, and someone who will somehow restore “greatness” to the nation, for millions of others, the chief emotions that Trump’s return has spurred are fear and anxiety over what the country might come to resemble under a president who embraces a brand authoritarian rule the nation has never before experienced.
And yet, despite these deeply conflicting views and emotions, politics, elections, and law and policymaking will go on and recently, Newsline’s Rob Schofield got a chance to check in with someone who keeps track of such things in our state better than just about anyone else, Western Carolina University political scientist, Professor Chris Cooper.
