Conservative legal scholar discusses Trump's first year

Season 2026 Episode 20 | 8m 58s

Tuesday marks one year since President Trump took the oath of office for the second time. Over the past 12 months, he has pushed the boundaries of executive power, challenged the Constitution and reshaped the federal government. To help make sense of all these moves, we’re returning to guests from our “On Democracy” series, starting with Ilya Shapiro of the conservative Manhattan Institute.
