In connection with the release of Encounter Books’ Vox Populi: The Perils and Promises of Populism, I interviewed the author of one its more provocative essays, the often-contrarian and always-compelling Professor Victor Davis Hanson.
During our discussion we discuss among other things:
- The populism of President Trump
- The insights President Trump has into the American people that his political opponents lack
- The significance of the 2016 presidential election in history and what it augurs for the world
- Whether Trumpism is a full-blown political movement or an outlier in U.S. history
- How Trump is doing when it comes to constructing the four core pillars of Trumpism
- Russiagate and Deep State subversion
- And much more
